Vapor Compression Refrigeration Demo

This file illustrates how to analyze an ideal vapor compression refrigeration cycle using refrigerant R134a. The compressor is modeled as reversible and adiabatic (isentropic). The user enters the condenser and the evaporator pressures. All other properties are fully defined by the definition of the ideal cycle itself. The analysis culminates in the determination of the refrigeration coefficient of performance.

The user must use Save As... when utilizing the thermodynamic property data in conjunction with the automated property interpolation scheme implemented in Excel.
