Question:
An ordinary vapor-compression cycle is to be designed for superconductor application using N2 as refrigerant. The expansion is to 1 bar. A heat sink is available at 105 K. A 5 K approach should be sufficient. Roughly 100 Btu/hr must be removed. Compute the coefficient of performance (COP) and compare to the Carnot COP. Also, estimate the compressor’s power requirement (hp) assuming it is adiabatic and reversible.
