7 An air refrigerator working on Bell Coleman cycle takes in air at 1 bar and at
a temperature of 10 0C. The air is compressed to 5 bar abs. The same is
cooled to 25 0C in the cooler before expanding in the expansion cylinder to
cold chamber pressure of 1 bar. The compression and expansion laws
followed are pv1.35 = C and pv1.3 = C respectively. Determine COP of the
plant and net refrigeration effect per kg of air. Take Cp = 1.009 kJ/kg K and
R = 0.287 kJ/kg K for air.

compressed up to 3.5 bar in compressor. The temperature of air is reduced
by 50 ⁰C while passing through heat exchanger. The aircraft is maintained at
1.01 bar and 25 ⁰C. Calculate power required to take load of air conditioning
system and COP of the system. Assume isentropic compression and
expansion process.
