temperature is 38 C and the evaporator temperature is 40 C. The cascade
condenser is a direct contact type. Determine (a) the refrigerating effect in tons, (b)
the power required, and (c) the COP.
Solution:
At 38 C, p = 1472.4 kPa
At 40 C, p = 72.0 kPa
Therefore, cascade condenser pressure =
t sat = 7.25 C
