INSTRUCTION: Solve for R-22 and compare the COP.
Problem 2.6
Compare the ideal COP of R-134a and R-22 at an evaporating temperature of 40°F with
20°F superheat and a condensing temperature of 120°F with 15°F subcooling with the actual
compressor COPs calculated from the manufacturer’s performance tables.
SOLUTION
For R-134a using the P-h diagram:
ℎ1 −ℎ4 113−47
Ideal COPc = = = 5.1
ℎ2 −ℎ1 126−113
From Table 2.3
@ te = 40°F and tc = 120°F
qr = 25.9 MBtu/h
wc = 2.27 kW.
25.9 𝑀𝐵𝑡𝑢/ℎ
Thus, EER = = 11.4 MBtu/kWh = 11.4/Wh and
2.27 𝑘𝑊
𝐸𝐸𝑅 11.4/𝑊ℎ
COP = = = 3.34
3.412 𝐵𝑡𝑢/𝑊ℎ 3.412 𝐵𝑡𝑢/𝑊ℎ
COP = 3.34
For R-22, using the P-h diagram:
ℎ1 −ℎ4 111−42
Ideal COPc = = = 5.3
ℎ2 −ℎ1 124−111
From Table 2.4
@ te = 40°F and tc = 120°F
qr = 39.1 MBtu/h
wc = 3.22 kW.
32.4𝑀𝐵𝑡𝑢/ℎ
Thus, EER = = 12.14 MBtu/kWh = 12.14 /Wh and
2.74𝑘𝑊
𝐸𝐸𝑅 12.14 /𝑊ℎ
COP = = = 3.56
3.412 𝐵𝑡𝑢/𝑊ℎ 3.412 𝐵𝑡𝑢/𝑊ℎ
COP = 3.56
