- Refrigerant 134a enters the expansion valve of an air conditioning unit at 140 Lbf/in2, 80 0F and exits at 50 Lbf/in2. If the refrigerant undergoes a throttling process, what are the temperature and the quality at the exit of the valve? Also determine the rate of entropy production from the inlet to the exit?
Homework Answers
NOTE: in the question, properties of R134a
refrigerant are not given so i used them from internet. By little
bit interpolation I calculated exact values at that given
condition.

A Refrigeration System Using R-134A In a refrigeration system, the refrigerant R-134A begins as saturated vapor at -15°(State 1). It then goes through a reversible adiabatic compressor to reach State 2. After flowing through the condenser (a heat exchanger), the refrigerant exits as saturated liquid at 70°C (State 3). It is then throttled by going through an expansion valve, to reach State 4. It finishes the cycle by going through another heat exchanger (the evaporator), to return to State 1....
