COP=10.65

a)Evaporator pressure=337.7 KPa

Condenser pressure=770.2KPa

b)Evaporator pressure=566.1 KPa

Condenser pressure=1192 KPa

c)Evaporator pressure= 0.81 KPa

Condenser pressure=4.024 KPa

d)Evaporator pressure= 394.84KPa

Condenser pressure=1167.2KPa

Explanation:

Given that cycle is working under Carnot cycle and we know that Carnot cycle is the ideal cycle for vapor compression.We also know that COP of Carnot cycle does not depends on the working fluids it depends only at the temperature limits.that is why COP of all fluids will be same.

COP of Carnot cycle given as follows

$COP=\dfrac{T_L}{T_H-T_L}$

Here given that T_L=277 K,T_H=303 K

$COP=\dfrac{277}{303-277}$

COP=10.65

Now to find the condenser and evaporator pressure

We know that inside the wet region only one property needed to find other properties.Here given that temperature at condenser and at evaporator so the condenser and evaporator pressure will be the saturation pressure condenser and evaporator at given temperature for all fluids.

a)For refrigerant 134a

From properties table of refrigerant 134a

Evaporator pressure=337.7 KPa (pressure corresponding to 4°C)

Condenser pressure=770.2KPa (pressure corresponding to 30°C)

b)For refrigerant R22

From properties table of refrigerant R22

Evaporator pressure=566.1 KPa (pressure corresponding to 4°C)

Condenser pressure=1192 KPa (pressure corresponding to 30°C)

c)For refrigerant water

From properties table of refrigerant water

Evaporator pressure= 0.81 KPa (pressure corresponding to 4°C)

Condenser pressure=4.024 KPa (pressure corresponding to 30°C)

d)For refrigerant ammonia

From properties table of refrigerant ammonia

Evaporator pressure= 394.84KPa (pressure corresponding to 4°C)

Condenser pressure=1167.2KPa (pressure corresponding to 30°C)
