Q.6

A boot-strap air refrigeration system of 20 TR capacity is used for an aeropplane flying at an altitude of 2000m. The ambient air pressure and temperature are 0.8 bar and 0C. The ram air pressure and temperature are 1.05 bar and 17C. The pressure of air after isentropic compression in the main compressor is 4 bar. The air is now cooled to 27C in another auxiliary heat exchanger and and then expanded isentropically upto the cabin pressure of 1.01 bar. If the air leaves the cabin at 25C and the efficiencies of main compressor and auxiliary compressor and the cooling turbine are 80%, 75 % and 80% respectively, Find 1) Power required to operate the system 2) C.O.P. of the system.
