Question: 1 . Part 1 : Refrigeration ( 2 0 marks ) Refrigerant 1 3 4 a is the working fluid in an ideal vapor compression

1.
Part 1: Refrigeration (20 marks)
Refrigerant 134a is the working fluid in an ideal vapor compression refrigeration cycle operating at a steady state. Refrigerant enters the compressor at 1 bar, -15C and the condenser pressure is 8 bar. Sub-cooled liquid exits the condenser at 30C. The total mass flow rate of refrigerant is 6 kg/min. Answer the following, including equations and substitution:
a)
Draw the refrigeration cycle on a T-s diagram,
b)
Calculate the required compressor power, in kW.
c)
Calculate the heat rejected from the condenser, in kW.
d)
Calculate the coefficient of performance.
