From p 1 V 1 = p 2 V 2 , p 1 V 1 = p 2 ×
V 1

⇒ p 2 = 2p 1
- Since (∆s)system > (∆s)surrounding, where both (∆s)system > 0 and (∆s)surrounding > 0.
- The compressors seal cannot fail due to moisture, all the other conditions do occur due to
presence of moisture. - All common refrigerants like F 11 , F 12 , F 22 , NH 3 etc. have approximately the same C.O.P.
ranging from 4.76 to 5.09 and H.P./ton varies from 0.99 to 1.01.
The electric resistance of the refrigerants is an important factor when it is used in hermetically
sealed unit where the motor is exposed to the refrigerant. - The reason why centrifugal compressors are used to large tonnage is that they can handle
larger volumes of refrigerant, also the part load efficiency of this kind is higher. - C.O.P. =
