82 kW at an evaporator pressure of 354 kPa and a
condenser pressure of 1460 kPa. The liquid refrigerant is
subcooled by 4 degrees before entering the expansion
valve and the vapor is superheated by 5 degrees before

(11) In a conventional refrigeration cycle which uses Freon- 12


as the refrigerant, the temperature of the evaporating fluid is -
20°C. It leaves the evaporator as saturated vapor at -20°C and
enters the compressor. The pressure in the condenser is 1.30
MPa. The liquid leaves the condenser and enters the expansion
valve at 40°C. It is proposed to modify this cycle by adding a
heat exchanger that would superheat the suction vapor to 25°C.
Compare the coefficient of performance of these two cycles.
