Objectives Cooling Cycles –Examples Cooling system components Refrigerants
2
Efficiency First Law –Coefficient of performance, COP –COP = useful refrigerating effect/net energy supplied –COP = q r /w net Second law –Refrigerating efficiency, η R –η R = COP/COP rev –Comparison to ideal reversible cycle
3
Carnot Cycle No cycle can have a higher COP All reversible cycles operating at the same temperatures (T 0, T R ) will have the same COP For constant temp processes dq = Tds COP = T R /(T 0 – T R )
4
Real Cycles Assume no heat transfer or potential or kinetic energy transfer in expansion valve COP = (h 3 -h 2 )/(h 4 -h 3 ) Compressor displacement = mv 3
5
Example R-22 condensing temp of 30 °C (86F) and evaporating temp of 0°C (32 F) Determine a) q carnot w carnot b) Diminished q R and excess w for real cycle caused by throttling and superheat horn c) η R
7
Comparison Between Single-Stage and Carnot Cycles Figure 3.6
8
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
9
Two stage systems
10
Multistage Compression Cycles Combine multiple cycles to improve efficiency –Prevents excessive compressor discharge temperature –Allows low evaporating temperatures (cryogenics)
11
Example 1 R-22 condensing temp of 30 °C and evaporating temp of 0°C Determine a) q carnot w carnot b) COP carnot c) η R
12
Example 2 R-22 condensing temp of 60 °C and evaporating temp of 0°C Determine the η R
13
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 η R Assume that condenser temperature for compressor B is the same like evaporation temperature of compressor A
