Mustrame cmo resolver: The configurations shown below correspond to a cooling production system that will condense at \(30^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) and evaporate at \(-20^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\), using the refrigerant R134a.
Take into account the following characteristics:
- Cooling capacity generated in the evaporator of 25 kW .
- Refrigerant in saturation at the outlet of the condenser and evaporator.
- The mass flow rate of refrigerant feeding the evaporator is \(0.15\mathrm{~kg}/\mathrm{s}\).
- Consider the isentropic efficiency to be 0.7 and the mechanical-electrical efficiency to be 1.
- The volumetric efficiency of the compressors can be estimated with the relation \(\eta v=1-0.005\mathrm{rp}\).
- Assume logical values as deemed appropriate.
Particular considerations for Configuration A:
- Power exchanged in the external cooler of the compressors is 4 kW .
- The ratio between the flow rate circulating through the condenser and that injected between the stages of compression is 6.66.
- The displacement volume of the low-pressure compressor is 68.35\(\mathrm{m}^{3}/\mathrm{h}\).
Particular considerations for Configuration B:
- Assume a logical intermediate pressure for the first stage of expansion.
Calculate for both Configurations A and B :
a) The T-s and P-h diagrams of the system operation.
b) Complete the table by first calculating the values of temperature, pressure, enthalpy, specific volume, and quality at each point.
c) Mass flow rates of circulating refrigerants.
d) Polytropic index for each compression.
e) Power of each compressor.
f) Energy efficiency of each cycle.
g) Dimensions of the compressors if they are double-acting, with 2 cylinders per compressor, 564 rpm , and a D/L ratio of 0.5.
h) The condenser is cooled using fans with an area of \(4.2\mathrm{~m}^{2}\) that move air at \(4\mathrm{~m}/\mathrm{s}\). Calculate the air outlet temperature if it enters at \(25^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\).
