In actual air-conditioning applications for R-12 and R-22, and operating at a condenser temperature of 40°C and an evaporator temperature of 5°C, the heat rejection factor is about

A. 1

B. 1.12

C. 2.15

D. 5.12

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

T1 = 5°C or 273 + 5 = 278K
T2 = 40°C or 273 + 40 = 313K
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{C}}{\text{.O}}{\text{.P}}{\text{.}} = \frac{{{\text{T1}}}}{{{\text{T2}} - {\text{T1}}}} \cr & = \frac{{278}}{{313 - 278}} \cr & = \frac{{278}}{{35}} \cr & {\text{C}}{\text{.O}}{\text{.P}}{\text{.}} = 7.942 \cr & {\text{Heat rejection factor (HRF)}} \cr & = 1 + \frac{1}{{{\text{C}}{\text{.O}}{\text{.P}}{\text{.}}}} \cr & = 1 + \frac{1}{{7.942}} \cr & = \frac{{8.942}}{{7.942}} \cr & = 1.12 \cr} $$

    T1= 5 °C or 273+5=278 K
    T2= 40 °C or 273+40= 313K
    COP = T1/T2-T1
    = 278/313-278
    = 278/35
    COP = 7.942
    Heat rejection factor (HRF) = 1+1/COP
    =1+1/7.942
    = 8.942/7.942
    = 1.12 ( Ans.)
