Question: ( 3 5 pt ) In a theoretical, single stage refrigeration cycle using ammonia, the liquid leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid at 1

(35 pt) In a theoretical, single stage refrigeration cycle using ammonia, the liquid leaves the
condenser as a saturated liquid at 104 deg F . The refrigerant leaves the evaporator as a
superheated vapor at 18.3 psia and 0 deg F . The system produces 25 tons of refrigeration. Assume
isentropic compression. The system is as shown in the figure below.
1Btuhr=0.0003930Hp.
(a)(10pt) Calculate the enthalpy at the state points 1-4.(Btulbm)
(b)(5pt) Compute the refrigerant mass flow rate of the system in 1bmhr.
(c)(5pt) Compute the heat rejected in the condenser. (Btu/hr)
(d)(5 pt) Compute the work of the compressor (horsepower)
(e)(5 pt) Compute the coefficient of performance of the system.
(f)(5pt) Compute the horsepower/ton of refrigeration.
( 3 5 pt ) In a theoretical, single stage
