The Interior of a freezer, operating with an ideal Carnot cycle, is at a constant of -25.0 C, and the room the freezer is in is at a temperature of 25.0 C.The freezer convert 0.636 kg of water initially at 20.0 C into ice at -25.0 C. How much input work (in kJ) is required for this process to occur? ( The specific heat of ice is 2090 J/(kg*C), the specific heat of liquid water is 4186 J/(kg*C), and latent...
A freezer is designed, based on vapor-compression refrigeration cycle. The designed conditions are: R-134a as refrigerant, with a cooling capacity of 500 kW; compressor of 70% efficiency, with a superheat of 10°C before compressor inlet; operation temperature of -10°C inside the refrigerator, with the environment temperature of 25°C outside the refrigerator; Determine the pressure range of refrigeration cycle if a 10°C difference is required to ensure effective heat transfer of evaporator and condenser; Plot the refrigeration cycle on P-h diagram;...
A 20-ton industrial refrigeration system is used to maintain a freezer room at 20oF. The system uses R-22 refrigerant with evaporating temperature of 10 oF and a condensing temperature of 100oF. The refrigerant enters the compressor at 20 oF and exits the condenser at 85oF. Sketch the cycle on a p-h diagram and determine: a) The Carnot COP b) The compressor suction and discharge pressures in psig c) The refrigerant mass flow rate, lbs./h d) The specific volume of the...

In a vapor-compression refrigeration heat pump cycle with Refrigerant 134a as the working fluid provides heating at a rate of 15 kW to maintain a building at 20 °C year-round. During the heating mode in the winter, the outside temperature is 5 °C. It is also used for cooling in the summer when outside temperature is 34 °C. Saturated vapor at 2.4 bar leaves the evaporator and superheated vapor at 8 bar leaves the compressor. There is no significant heat...
