Question: It is proposed to replace R - 1 2 by ozone friendly R - 1 3 4 a in a refrigeration plant of 1 0

It is proposed to replace R-12 by ozone friendly R-134a in a refrigeration plant of 10TR capacity with evaporator and condenser temperatures of 0C and 40C respectively. Considering standard saturation cycle (evaporator exit and condenser exit as saturated states), compare the mass flow rate, compressor work (in kW), condenser heat rejection (in kW) and C.O.P for the two refrigerants. The saturation properties and vapour specific heats are as follows:
