Question:
Reconsider Prob. 11–44E. What is the effect on the compressor power requirement when the vapor entering the compressor is superheated by 10°F and the condenser operates ideally?
Data From Reconsider Prob. 11–44E:
The liquid leaving the condenser of a 100,000 Btu/h heat pump using refrigerant-134a as the working fluid is subcooled by 9.5°F. The condenser operates at 160 psia and the evaporator at 50 psia. How does this sub cooling change the power required to drive the compressor as compared to an ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle?
