Question: Question 3 ( 7 marks ) Refrigerant - 1 3 4 a enters the compressor of a refrigerator as superheated vapor at 0 . 1

Question 3
(7 marks)
Refrigerant-134a enters the compressor of a refrigerator as superheated vapor at 0.14 MPa and -10C at a rate of 0.05kgs and leaves at 0.8 MPa and 50C. The refrigerant is cooled in the condenser to 26C and 0.72 MPa and is throttled to 0.15 MPa . Disregarding any heat transfer and pressure drops in the connecting lines between the components. Determine (a) the rate of heat removal from the refrigerated space and the power input to the compressor, (b) the isentropic efficiency of the compressor, and (c) the coefficient of performance of the refrigerator.
