Question: 3 . In an ammonia compressor vapours enter at 2 . 9 0 8 bar saturated and leave at 1 5 . 5 5 bar

3. In an ammonia compressor vapours enter at 2.908 bar saturated and leave at 15.55 bar and \(112^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\). Determine specific volumes at suction and discharge.
The compressor is twin cylinder single acting with stroke to bore ratio of 1, speed \(=1440\mathrm{rpm}\) and rated for 10 TR at evaporator and condenser temperatures of \(-10^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) and \(40^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) respectively. Find the diameters of the cylinders, assuming \(4\%\) clearance. Use the following data:
