Question

Consider an ideal vapour compression refrigeration cycle working on R-134a refrigerant. The COP of the cycle is 10 and the refrigeration capacity is 150 kJ/kg. The heat rejected by the refrigerant in the condenser is __________ kJ/kg (round off to the nearest integer).

Show Answer

Answer :

Correct answer is : 165

Refrigeration effect Q1 = 150 kJ/kg, COP = 10

COP =  Q 1 W R

WR Q 1 C O P = 150 10 = 15 kJ/kg

Heat rejected by the refrigerant in the condenser is

Q2 = Q1 + WR

Q2 = 150 + 15 = 165 kJ/kg
