Question: ( 1 3 ) Ans. ( a ) 3 . 6 7 3 kg / min; ( b ) - 6 1 5 . 3

(13) Ans. (a)3.673 kg/min; (b)-615.3 kJ/min
The cooling coil of an air-conditioning system is a heat exchanger in which air passes over tubes through which Refrigerant 22 flows. Air enters with a volumetric flow rate of 40m3min at 27C,1.1bar, and exits at 15C,1bar. Refrigerant enters the tubes at 7 bar with a quality of 16% and exits at 7 bar, 15C. Ignoring heat transfer from the, outside of the heat exchanger and neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine at steady state
(a) the mass flow rate of refrigerant, in kgmin.
(b) the rate of energy transfer, in kJmin, from the air to the refrigerant.
( 1 3 ) Ans. ( a ) 3 . 6 7 3 kg / min; ( b ) - 6
