Question 1
A refrigerating system operates on the reversed Carnot cycle. The higher temperature of the refrigerant in the system is 120°F and the lower
temperature is 10°F. The capacity is 20TR. Neglecting losses, determine heat rejected in BTU/min.
_____
Response: 4936.17
Question 2
A supply of 50 kg of chicken needs at 6°C contained in a box is to be frozen to -18°C in a freezer. Determine the amount of heat that needs to be
removed. The latent heat of chicken is 247 KJ/kg, and its specific heat is 3.77 KJ/kg-°C above freezing and 1.32 KJ/kg-°C below freezing. The
container box is 1.5 kg, and the specific heat of the box material is 1.4 Kj/kg-°C. Also the freezing temperature of chicken is -2.8°C.
