12、xample 1,the change in entropy of the refrigerated space is SR=125/250=0.5 kJ/K and that of the atmosphere is So=125/250=0.5 kJ/K.The net change in entropy of the isolated system is Stotal=SR+So=0.The Carnot cycle in the figure below shows a process in which heat is added and rejected at constant pr
13、essure in the two-phase region of a refrigerant.Saturated liquid at state 3 expands isentropically to the low temperature and pressure of the cycle at state d.Heat is added isothermally and isobarically by evaporating the liquid-phase refrigerant from state d to state 1.The cold saturated vapor at s
14、tate 1 is compressed isentropically to the high temperature in the cycle at state b.However,the pressure at state b is below the saturation pressure corresponding to the high temperature in the cycle The compression process is completed by an isothermal compression process from state b to state c.Th
15、e cycle is completed by an isothermal and isobaric heat rejection or condensing process from state c to state 3.MULTISTAGE VAPOR COMPRESSION REFRIGERATION CYCLES Multistage or multipressure vapor compression refrigeration is used when several evaporators are needed at various temperatures,such as in
16、 a supermarket,or when evaporator temperature becomes very low.Low evaporator temperature indicates low evaporator pressure and low refrigerant density into the compressor.Two small compressors in series have a smaller displacement and usually operate more efficiently than one large compressor that
17、covers the entire pressure range from the evaporator to the condenser.This is especially true in ammonia refrigeration systems because of the large amount of superheating that occurs during the compression process.Thermodynamic analysis of multistage cycles is similar to analysis of single-stage cyc
18、les,except that mass flow differs through various components of the system.A careful mass balance and energy balance on individual components or groups of components ensures correct application of the first law of thermodynamics.Care must also be used when performing second-law calculations.Often,th
19、e refrigerating load is comprised of more than one evaporator,so the total system capacity is the sum of the loads from all evaporators.Likewise,the total energy input is the sum of the work into all compressors.For multistage cycles,the expression for the coefficient of performance given in Equatio
20、n(15)should be written asACTUAL REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS Actual systems operating steadily differ from the ideal cycles considered in the previous sections in many respects.Pressure drops occur everywhere in the system except in the compression process.Heat transfers between the refrigerant and its env
21、ironment in all components.The actual compression process differs substantially from isentropic compression.The working fluid is not a pure substance but a mixture of refrigerant and oil.All of these deviations from a theoretical cycle cause irreversibilities within the system.Each irreversibility r
22、equires additional power into the compressor.It is useful to understand how these irreversibilities are distributed throughout a real system;this insight can be useful when design changes are contemplated or operating conditions are modified.ABSORPTION REFRIGERATION CYCLES An absorption cycle is a h
23、eat-activated thermal cycle.It exchanges only thermal energy with its surroundings;no appreciable mechanical energy is exchanged.Furthermore,no appreciable conversion of heat to work or work to heat occurs in the cycle.Absorption cycles are used in applications where one or more of the exchanges of
24、heat with the surroundings is the useful product(e.g.,refrigeration,air conditioning,and heat pumping).The two great advantages of this type of cycle in comparison to other cycles with similar product are No large,rotating mechanical equipment is required Any source of heat can be used,including low
