Chapter 6 : Multiple Evaporator and Compressor Systems 26

Mass of refrigerant required to be circulated through the second evaporator.


210 Q2 _ 210x 20 .
mz = ~ -h10 - 189.65-45.37 29 1

Mass of refrigerant required in the flash intercooler at point 10 for desuperheating the
aperheated vapour refrigerant mel = 44.2 kg/min coming from first compressor, to the dry
sarurated condition as at point 3 is

~' = mc1(h,. -~) = 44.2(194.1-189.65) =1.36 kg/min


~ -Ja.0 189.65-45.37
The second evaporator is also supplied with vapours formed during expansion of
d = 44.2 kg/min refrigerant while passing through the second expansion valve.

expansion valve,

:. Total mass of refrigerant passing through the second compressor,


mc2 = mel + mz + mz' + mz"
= 44.2 + 29.1 + 1.36 + 1.84 =76.5 kg/min Ans.
Now, mass of refrigerant required to be circulated through the third evaporator,

m3 = hs -hs = 191.74-64.59 = 16.5 kg/min
Mass of refrigerant required in the flash intercooler at point 8 for desuperheating the
superheated vapour refrigerant mcz = 76.5 kg/min coming from the second compressor to the dry
saturated condition as at point 5 is

191.74-64.59
The third evaporator is also supplied with the vapour formed by the expansion of
mcz = 76.5 kg/min refrigerant while passing through the third expansion valve.
:. Mass of vapours formed by mcz = 76.5 kg/min while passing through the third expansion
valve.

:. Total mass of refrigerant passing through the third compressor,
