Question 12.27: The evaporator and condenser temperatures of 20 tonnes capac...
The evaporator and condenser temperatures of 20 tonnes capacity freezer are – 28°C and 23°C respectively. The refrigerant – 22 is sub-cooled by 3°C before it enters the expansion valve and is superheated to 8°C before leaving the evaporator. The compression is isentropic. A sixcylinder single-acting compressor with stroke equal to bore running at 250 r.p.m. is used. Determine :
(i) Refrigerating effect/kg.
(ii) Mass of refrigerant to be circulated per minute.
(iii) Theoretical piston displacement per minute.
(iv) Theoretical power.
(v) C.O.P.
(vi) Heat removed through condenser.
(vii) Theoretical bore and stroke of the compressor.
Neglect valve throttling and clearance effect.
