A refrigerator uses refrigerant-134a as the working fluid and follows the ideal vapor- compression refrigeration cycle with a non isentropic compressor. The refrigerant enters the evaporator at 120 kPa with a quality of 34 percent and leaves the compressor at 70°C. The compressor consumes 500 W of power. Warm environment 70°C Condenser Evaporator Compressor 120 kPa x = 0.34 QL Cold environment Determine the condenser pressure. (Take the required values from saturated refrigerant-134a tables.) (You must provide an answer before moving on to the next part.) The condenser pressure is kPa. Expansion valve
