Question: A vapor compression refrigeration unit with R - 1 2 as a refrigerant has a capacity of 1 7 TR operating between temperature limits of

A vapor compression refrigeration unit with R-12 as a refrigerant has a capacity of 17 TR operating between temperature limits of -30C and 20C, respectively. The refrigerant is sub-cooled by 5C before the throttle valve and superheated by 6C before leaving the evaporator. The refrigeration unit has a 6-cylinder, single-acting, compressor with L/D =1.25. Calculate the following. (i) Theoretical power required (ii) COP (ii) Bore, and stroke of the cylinder
if volumetric efficiency is 87% and speed of the compressor is 1000 rpm.
