    1. Define the following terms: Refrigeration, Unit of refrigeration, Air conditioning.

    2. Explain COP. Prove that COP of heat pump is always greater than COP of refrigerator by
    unity.

    3. What are primary and secondary refrigerants? How are different refrigerants classified?

    4. A reversed Carnot cycle is used for cooling in summer maintained at 5ºC when the
    ambient temperature is 40ºC. The same cycle is used for heating in winter at 55ºC when
    ambient temperature is 15ºC. Assuming 5ºC temperature difference in heat exchanger that
    exchanges heat with the surrounding , find
    (a) The COP of cooling and heating cycle.
    (b) If the water at 30ºC is used as a cooling medium with 3ºC temperature difference for
    summer air conditioning, what will be the Carnot COP.?
    (c) The power consumption per ton of refrigeration in each case.

    5. An air refrigerator working on the principle of Bell-Coleman cycle. The air into the
    compressor is at 1 atm at -10ºC. It is compressed to 10 atm and cooled to 40ºC at the
    same pressure. It is then expanded to 1 atm and discharged to take cooling load. The air
    circulation is 1 kg/s. The isentropic efficiency of the compressor and expander is 80% and
    90 % respectively. Find the following:
    i) Refrigeration capacity of the system
    ii) C.O.P of the system, Take γ = 1.4, Cp = 1.00 kJ/kg ºC
    iii)
    6. An air cooling system for a jet plane cockpit operates on the simple cycle. The cockpit is
    to be maintained at 25ºC. The ambient air pressure and temperature are 0.35 bar and -
    15ºC respectively. The pressure ratio of the jet compressor is 3. The plane speed is 1000
    kilometer per hour. The pressure drop through the cooler coil is 0.1 bar. The pressure of
    the air leaving the cooling turbine is 1.06 bar and that in the cockpit is 1.01325 bar. The
    cockpit cooling load is 58.05 KW. Calculate: (a) Stagnation temperature and pressure of
    the air entering the compressor. (b) Mass flow rate of the air circulated, (c) Volume
    handled by the compressor and expander, (d) Net power delivered by the engine to the
    refrigeration unit and (e) COP of the system.

    7. A boot strap cooling system of 20 tons capacity is used for an air plane. The temperature
    and pressure of atmosphere are 20ºC and 0.8 bar. The pressure of air is increased from 0.8
    bar to 0.96 bar by ramming action. The pressure of air leaving the main and auxiliary
    compressor are 3.5 bar and 5.25 bar respectively. 60% of total heat of the air leaving the
    main compressor is removed in the first heat exchanger and 35% of total heat of the air
    leaving the auxiliary compressor is removed in second heat exchanger. Assuming
    ramming is isontropic and ηt = 80%, ηc1 = ηc2 = 85%. Cabin pressure is maintained
    at1.03 bar and temperature of the air leaving the cabin should not exceed 27ºC. Find the
    following:
    a.) kW required to take the load in cabin and (b) COP of the system.

    8. A regenerative air refrigeration system is designed to take a load of 30 tons of


    refrigeration load of an aircraft cabin. The pressure of air is increased from 0.8 bar to 1.2
    bar by ramming action. The air required for the refrigeration is bled from the main
    compressor at 4.8 bar. The effectiveness of the HE-I (when rammed air is used) is 0.6.
    The air coming out of HE-I is passed through the cooling turbine and some portion of the
    air coming out from the cooling turbine is used in HE-II (known as regenerative Heat
    Exchanger) where refrigeration air is cooled to 50ºC. The temperature of the air coming
    out of He-II is 100ºC. The cabin is maintained at 1 bar and 25ºC. The ambient
    temperature is 7ºC. Assuming ramming is isontropic and ηc1 = 90% and ηt = 80%, find (a)
    The percentage of the air extracted from the cooling turbine used in regenerative heat
    exchanger. (b) Power required to run the system.
    Assume that the power developed by the cooling turbine is used for running the ram air
    exhaust fan.
