Past Year Questions: Vapour Refrigeration - Question 3

A refrigerator based on ideal vapour compression cycle operates between the temperature limits of –20°C and 40°C. The refrigerant enters the condenser as saturated vapour and leaves as saturated liquid. The enthalpy and entropy values for saturated liquid and vapour at these temperatures are given in the table below.

If refrigerant circulation rate is 0.025 kg/s, the refrigeration effect is equal to

[2003]

Detailed Solution for Past Year Questions: Vapour Refrigeration - Question 3



= 0.07 + x + (0.7366 – 0.07)
⇒ 0.67 = 0.07 + x + 0.6666
⇒ 

= 20 + 0.9(180 – 20)
= 20 + 0.9 × 160 =165 kJ/kg
Refrigerating effect per kg = h2 – h1
= 164 – 80 = 84 kJ/kg
Hence refrigerating effect for 0.025 kg/sec circulation
= 84 × 0.025 = 2.1 kW

Past Year Questions: Vapour Refrigeration - Question 6

A R-12 refrigerant reciprocating compressor operates between the condensing temperature of 30º and evaporator temperature of –20ºC. The clearance volume ratio of the compressor is 0.03. Specific heat ratio of the vapour is 1.15 and the specific volume at the suction is 0.1089 m3/kg. Other properties at various states are given in the figure. To realize 2 tons of refrigeration, the actual volume displacement rate considering the effect of clearance is

[2004]

Detailed Solution for Past Year Questions: Vapour Refrigeration - Question 6

Given: Clearance volume ratio,
C = 0.03
Specific volume at suction,
v1 = 0.1089 m3/kg
Net refrigerating effect
= 2 ton = 2 × 3.516 kJ = 7.032 kJ/s Specific heat ratio, c = 1.15

∴ Net refrigerating effect
= m  (h1 – h4)
or 7.032 = m (176 – 65)
or m = 0.063 kg/s
∴ Volume =  0.063 × 0.1089
= 6.89 × 10–3 m3/s
Volumetric efficiency

= 0.909
∴ Volume displace mentrate considering clearance effect
= 6.89 × 10–3 × 0.909
= 6.26 × 10–3 m3/s

Past Year Questions: Vapour Refrigeration - Question 7

Past Year Questions: Vapour Refrigeration - Question 8

In an ideal vapour compression refrigeration cycle, the specific enthalpy of refrigerant (in kJ/kg) at the following states is given as:
Inlet of condenser : 283
Exit of condenser : 116
Exit of evaporator : 232
The COP of this cycle is

[2009]

Detailed Solution for Past Year Questions: Vapour Refrigeration - Question 8


1– 2   →  work done by the compressor 2 - 3 → condenser heat rejected at constant pressure
3 - 4 →   throttling
4 - 1 →   heat addition in evaporator
Given :
h2 = 283 kJ/ kg
h3 = 116 kJ/kg = h4 (from ph curve)
h1 = 232 kJ/kg
We know

A refrigerator operates between 120 kPa and 800 kPa in an ideal vapor compression cycle with R-134a as the refrigerant. The refrigerant enters the compressor as saturated vapor and leaves the condenser as saturated liquid. The mass flow rate of the refrigerant is 0.2 kg/s.
Properties for R -134a are as follows: Saturated R-134a

The rate at which heat is extracted, in kJ/s from the refrigerated space is

[2012]

Detailed Solution for Past Year Questions: Vapour Refrigeration - Question 9

Rate at which heat is extracted

[2016]

Detailed Solution for Past Year Questions: Vapour Refrigeration - Question 10

Power required by compressor
p = m(h2 – h1) = 0.2 (276.45 – 237) = 7.9 kW

Past Year Questions: Vapour Refrigeration - Question 11

Consider an ideal vapor compression refrigeration cycle. If the throttling process is replaced by an isentropic expansion process, keeping all the other processes unchanged, which one of the following statements is true for the modified cycle?

[2019]

Detailed Solution for Past Year Questions: Vapour Refrigeration - Question 11

Vapor compression refrigeration cycle :

Both cycle required same amount of work input but by use of Isentropic expander, we can get more amount of refrigeration effect, hence
((COP)modified cycle > ((COP)original cycle)

Environment friendly refrigerant R134a is used in the new generation domestic refrigerators.Its Chemical formula is

[2004]

Detailed Solution for Past Year Questions: Vapour Refrigeration - Question 13


Number of carbon atoms = 1st digit + 1 = 1+1 = 2
Number of hydrogen atoms = 2nd digit – 1 = 3 – 1 = 2
Number of fluorine atoms = 3rd digit = 4
So chemical formula is C2H2F4
