0.9 bar and 100 C respectively. The pressure increases to 1.013 bar due
to ramming. Temperature reduces by 500 C in the heat exchanger. The [15]

leaving is 250 C. Determine (i) Power required to run the compressor
and (ii) Coefficient of Performance of the system.

4. A vapour compression refrigeration system uses R- 12 as refrigerant
and evaporates in the evaporator at -150 C. the temperature of this
refrigerant at the end of compressor is at 150 C. The temperature at the
delivery from the compressor is 150 C when the vapour is condensed at
100 C.
Find the COP if (i) there is no undercooling and (ii) the liquid is
cooled by 50 C before expansion by throttling.
Take specific heat at constant pressure for superheated vapour as 0.64
KJ/ Kg K and for liquid as 0.94 KJ/ Kg K. The other properties of [15]
refrigerant are as follows.
