    The document contains formulas and examples related to refrigeration cycles. It provides formulas for heat added and rejected, compressor work, coefficient of performance for refrigeration and heat pumps, and the relationship between the two COP values. It then shows worked examples applying the formulas to calculate heat rejection, COP and compressor power requirements.

    Formulas:

      

    a.) Heat Added in the Evaporator


    QA=T1 (S1-S4) ; T1=T4=TL

    b.)Heat Rejected in the Condenser

    QR=T2 (S2-S3) ; T2=T3=TH


    c.) Compressor Work

    From:QR=QA+W

    W=QR-QA=T2(S2-S1)-T1(S1-S4)

    Since; S2-S3=S1-S4

    W=(T2-T1)(S1-S4)
     
    d.) COP of Refrigeration

    COPR= ====
    Where;
      
    e.)COP of Heat Pump or Performance Factor

    COPH====

    COPH==
      
    f.) Relation of COPC and COPH

    From;
    COPH=
    Since;
    =

    COPH===COPR+1
    Examples:

    A carnot refrigeration cycle has a coefficient


    of performance of 5…The power input to the
    compressor is 5 Kw..Compute the rate of heat
    rejection from the refrigerant to the
    environment?
     
    Solution:

    Given: Required:
    COPR=5 QR=?
    W=5Kw
    Formula:
    COPR= QR=QA+W
    Substitute; Substitute;
    5= QR=25+5,KW
    QA=25KW QR=30KW
      
    Example:

    A reversed Carnot refrigerator is


    operating under the temperature limits -10
    and 20..Find the COP?
     
    Solution:

    Given:
    TL=-10 +273=263K
    TH=20 +273=293K

    Formula:
    COPR===8.77
     
    Example:

    A building has to be maintained at 18 at


    all times…When the temperature outside the
    building drops to -6 ,the building losses heat
    at a rate of 120,000KJ/hr…Compute the least
    power necessary to drive the heat pumps?
     
    Solution:
    Given:
    QR=120,000kJ/Hr=120000kJ/3600sec
    TH=18+273=291K
    TL=-6+273=267K
    Formula:
    COPH====97/8
    QA=30.5842KW
    W=QR-QA=2.7491KW,
