QUESTION 3
A standard vapour-compression cycle using ammonia as the refrigerant operates between a condensing temperature of 30C, and an evaporating temperature of -20C. Assuming that the compressor is isentropic and that the liquid leaving the condenser is saturated,
3.1 draw the T-s diagrams and
3.2 compare the coefficient of performance (COP) of the refrigeration cycle which uses
(a) dry compression with one that uses
(612)
(b) wet compression. In the wet compression the refrigerant enters the compressor in such a condition that it is saturated vapour upon leaving the compressor.
