Refrigerant 134a enters an insulated compressor operating atsteady state as saturated vapor at -26oC with avolumetric flow rate of 0.18 m3/s. Refrigerant exits at8 bar, 70oC. Changes in kinetic and potential energyfrom inlet to exit can be ignored.
Determine the volumetric flow rate at the exit, in m3/s,and the compressor power, in kW.
