CS 03B : Two-stage Refrigeration Loop (3)

Problem 03B.2:
For the problem 01B.1, evaluate the effect of intermediate pressure in
the range of 3 to 13 bar to the following parameters :
a. Refrigeration Flow (kgs/h).
b. Condenser Duty (kW).
c. Compressor Stage-1 Power (kW).
d. Compressor Stage-2 Power (kW).
e. Compressor Total Power (kW).

Note:
1. Calculate the total power by summing up the stage-1 & stage-2 powers
using mixer unit operation.
2. Use Hysys Optimizer to determine the optimal intermediate pressure.
