Refrigeration and Air-conditioning

  1. 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 ________.
    1. 5.0
    2. 5.5
    3. 4.5
    4. 1.5
Correct Option: B

Work done = 432 – 402 = 30 kJ/kg
Refrigerating effect = 402 – 237 = 165 kJ/kg.

COP =
165
= 5.5
30
