In an ammonia refrigeration system, the temperature in the evaporator is -12°C and the ammonia at the evaporator entry 0.1511 dry while at exit is 0.95 dry. If the rate of ammonia circulation is 5.64 kg/min, determine the refrigerating capacity of the system. Enthalpy of saturated liquid and vapor at -12°C is 144.929 kJ/kg and 1447.74 kJ/kg respectively.

A regenerative gas turbine power plant is
shown in Fig. P1. Air enters the compressor at 1
bar, 27ºC with a mass flow rate of 0.562 kg/s and
is compressed to 4 bar. The isentropic efficiency of
the compressor is 80%, and the regenerator
effectiveness is 90%. All the power developed by
the high-pressure turbine is used to run the
compressor. The low-pressure turbine provides the
net power output. Each turbine has an isentropic
efficiency of 87% and the temperature at the inlet
to the high-pressure turbine is 1200 K. Sketch the
corresponding T – s diagram and determine: (a) The net power output, in kW. (b) The thermal
efficiency. (c) The temperature of the air at states
2, 3, 5, 6, and 7, in K.
