Question: solve this question for me please A chiller operating with vapor compression refrigeration cycle supplies 1m3/min chilled water at 5C,3 bar to an industrial plant.

A chiller operating with vapor compression refrigeration cycle supplies 1m3/min chilled water at 5C,3 bar to an industrial plant. Water returns to the evaporator of the chiller at 20C and 3 bar. Refrigerant 134a as a working medium enters the evaporator at 20C and exits at 16C. The isentropic compressor efficiency is 85%. The refrigerant condenses at 35.5C and exits the condenser subcooled at 34C. There are no significant pressure drops in the flows through the evaporator and condenser. (a) Draw the schematics of the vapor-compression refrigeration cycle (b) Sketch the T-s diagram of the cycle and show each state point in reference to the saturation lines (c) Determine i. the evaporator and condenser pressures, each in bar, ii. the mass flow rate of refrigerant, in kg/s, iii. the compressor power input, in kW, and iv. the coefficient of performance of the cycle
