    STEAM JET REFRIGERATION

    There is a 5.0 m3/s of vapor leaving the evaporator of vacuum refrigeration system. The
    warm water enters the evaporator at 20C and make up water enters the evaporator at
    31C. the evaporator has a temperature of 5C. Determine the refrigerating capacity.

    ANSWER:

    31C
    20C

    5C

    V = 5.0 m3/s
    h1 = hf @ 5C = 20.98 kj/kg
    h4 = hf @ 31C = 129.948 kj/kg
    h3 = hg @ 5C = 2510.54 kj/kg
    v = vg @ 5C = 147.118 m3/kg
    Z = V/v = 5/147.118 = 0.0339 kg/s
    Q = Z(h3 h4) = 0.0339(2510.54 129.948)
    = 80.7020 KW

    An evaporator is maintained at 10C. Warm water the evaporator at 15C while make-up
    water enters at 25C. Suppose the system is a steam jet refrigeration system having 35
    tons capacity. Find the volume of vapor leaving the evaporator.

    ANSWER:

    10C
    25C

    15C

    h3 = hg @ 10C = 2519.74 kj/kg


    h4 = hf @ 25C = 104.87 kj/kg
    v = vg @ 10C = 106.377 m3/kg
    3.52 KW
    Q = 35 tonsx
    = 123.2 KW
    1 Ton
    Z = Q/(h3 h4) = 123.2/(2519.74 104.87)
    = 0.0510 kg/s
    V = Zxv = 0.0510 x 106.377
    = 5.4252 m3/s

    A steam jet refrigeration having an evaporator maintained at 5C with a make-up water at


    25C. The chilled water has the same temperature as the evaporator and warm water
    enters at 17C. Find the refrigerating effect if 0.93 kg/s of make-up water enters the
    evaporator.

    ANSWER:

    5C
    17C

    25C,0.93kg/s

    h1 = hf @ 5C = 20.98 kj/kg
    h2 = hf @ 17C = 71.364 kj/kg
    h3 = hg @ 5C = 2510.54 kj/kg
    h4 = hf @ 25C = 104.87 kj/kg
    Z = 0.93 kg/s
    v = vf @ 25C = 0.0010014 m3/kg
    Q = Z(h3 h4) = 0.93(2510.54 104.87)
    = 22.3727 KW

    There are removed 5.06 m3/s of vapor from the water evaporator of a vacuum
    refrigeration system; the warm water enters the evaporator at 15 oC and chilled water
    leaves at 11 oC; make-up water enters at 30oC. Determine the refrigerating capacity.

    ANSWER:
    v3 = vg@11oC = 100.6866 m3/kg
    h3 = hg@11oC = 2521.574 kJ/kg
    h4 = hf@30oC = 125.77 kJ/kg
    z = V3 / v3
    z = 5.06 / 100.6866
    z = 0.050255 kg/s
    Qa = z(h3 h4)
    Qa = 0.050255 (2521.574 125.77)
    Qa = 120.4 kW

    In a steam jet refrigeration system, the evaporator is maintained at 5 oC. The chilled water
    leaves at the same temperature and warms to 10 oC as it absorbs the load. Make-up water
    is available at 25oC. For a capacity of 50 tons, determine (a) the quantity of chilled water
    required, and (b) the volume of vapor removed. (a) Solving for quantity of chilled water
    =m.

    ANSWER:
    for chilled water:
    h1 = hf@5oC = 20.98 kJ/kg
    for warm water:
    h2 = hf@10oC = 41.99 kJ/kg
    Qa = m (h2 h1)

    50 (3.516) = m (41.99 - 20.98)


    m = 8.367 kg/s
    b.) Solving for the volume of vapor removed = V 3
    for vapor:
    h3 = hg@5oC = 2510.54 kJ/kg
    v3 = vg@5oC = 147.118 m3/kg
    for make-up water:
    h4 = hf@25oC = 104.87 kJ/kg
    z (h3 h4) = Qa
    z (2510.54 104.87) = 50 (3.516)
    z = 0.073077 kg/s
    V3 = zv3 = 0.073077 (147.118) = 10.75 m3/s
