Objectives • Cooling Cycles • Examples • Cooling system components • Refrigerants
Efficiency • First Law • Coefficient of performance, COP • COP = useful refrigerating effect/net energy supplied • COP = qr/wnet • Second law • Refrigerating efficiency, ηR • ηR = COP/COPrev • Comparison to ideal reversible cycle
Carnot Cycle No cycle can have a higher COP • All reversible cycles operating at the same temperatures (T0, TR) will have the same COP • For constant temp processes • dq = Tds • COP = TR/(T0 – TR)
Real Cycles • Assume no heat transfer or potential or kinetic energy transfer in expansion valve • COP = (h3-h2)/(h4-h3) • Compressor displacement = mv3
Example • R-22 condensing temp of 30 °C (86F) and evaporating temp of 0°C (32 F) • Determine • qcarnot wcarnot • Diminished qR and excess w for real cycle caused by throttling and superheat horn • ηR
Comparison Between Single-Stage and Carnot Cycles • Figure 3.6
Subcooling and Superheating • Refrigerant may be subcooled in condenser or in liquid line • Temperature goes below saturation temperature • Refrigerant may be superheated in evaporator or in vapor (suction) line • Temperature goes above saturation temperature
Multistage Compression Cycles • Combine multiple cycles to improve efficiency • Prevents excessive compressor discharge temperature • Allows low evaporating temperatures (cryogenics)
Example 1 • R-22 condensing temp of 30 °C and evaporating temp of 0°C • Determine • qcarnot wcarnot • COPcarnot • ηR
Example 2 • R-22 condensing temp of 60 °C and evaporating temp of 0°C • Determine the ηR
Example 3 • Two stage compressor • R-22 condensing temp of 60 °C • Evaporating temp of compressor A 30°C and for compressor B 0°C. • Determine the ηR Assume that condenser temperature for compressor B is the same like evaporation temperature of compressor A
