3. Establish how an actual cycle differs from a theoretical vapour compression cycle.
4. Discuss the advantages of vapour absorption refrigeration system over vapour
compression system.
5. Discuss the environmental aspects of conventional refrigerants.
6. A quantity of air having a volume of 300 m
3
at 30?C dry bulb temperature and 25?C wet
bulb temperature is heated to 40?C dry bulb temperature. Estimate the amount of heat
added, final relative humidity and wet bulb temperature. The air pressure is 1.01325 bar.
SECTION-C
7. A two stage compression ammonia refrigerating system with water and flash intercooling
and water sub-cooling operates between overall pressure limits of 13.89 bar and 1.9 bar.
The flash intercooler pressure is 4.97 bar. The temperature of refrigerant leaving the
water intercooler and the water sub-cooler is limited to 30?C. If the load is 10 TR, find :
a) Coefficient of performance of the system.
b) Power required to drive each compressor.
c) Swept volume for each compressor assuming the volumetric efficiency for both the
compressor as 80%.
8. Explain with the help of a neat sketch the working of mixed refrigeration system.
9. A cinema hall with seating capacity of 1500 persons has been provided with an air-
conditioning plant with the following data :
Outdoor conditions : 40?C DBT and 20?C WBT
Required indoor conditions : 20?C DBT and 60% RH
Amount of outdoor air supplied : 0.3 m
3
/min /person
If the required condition is achieved first by adiabatic humidifying and then by cooling,
Find :
a) The capacity of cooling coil and surface temperature of the coil if by-pass factor is
0.25
b) The capacity of the humidifier and its efficiency.
