In an actual refrigeration cycle using R-12 as the working fluid, the refrigerant flow rate is 0.05

Question:

In an actual refrigeration cycle using R-12 as the working fluid, the refrigerant flow rate is 0.05 kg/s. Vapor enters the compressor at 150 kPa, −10°C, and leaves at 1.2 MPa, 75°C. The power input to the compressor is measured and found be 2.4 kW. The refrigerant enters the expansion valve at 1.15 MPa, 40°C, and leaves the evaporator at 175 kPa, −15°C. Determine the entropy generation in the compression process, the refrigeration capacity and the coefficient of performance for this cycle.
