Saturated vapor R-410a enters the uninsulated compressor of a home central airconditioning system at 5'C. The flow rate of refrigerant through the compressor is 0.08kg/s, and the electrical power input is 4 kW. The exit state is 60'C, 2000 kPa. Compute the heat transfer from the compressor to the ambient environment at 25'C. the entropy generation, and the isentropic efficiency of the compressor by doing the following: Write the problem in your own words stating the known and unknown variables Formulate the problem into a mathematical model. Devise a solution strategy using the formulated problem. Exccute your solution strategy to solve the problem. Show the process on P-V and T-S diagrams Comment on your results.
