Refrigerant vapor enters into the compressor of a standard vapor compression cycle at –10°C (h = 402 J/kg) and leaves the compression at 50°C (h = 432 kJ/kg). It leaves the condenser at 30°C (h = 237 kJ/kg). The COP of the cycle is ________.
-
- 5.0
- 5.5
- 4.5
- 1.5
- 5.0
Correct Option: B
Work done = 432 – 402 = 30 kJ/kg
Refrigerating effect = 402 – 237 = 165 kJ/kg.
COP = | = 5.5 | |
30 |
