Homework * ASC 111 * 10-15-12

True/False
Indicate whether the statement is true or false.
 

 1. 

The pressure/enthalpy chart for each refrigerant is different.
 

 2. 

If a line is moving from left to right on the p/e (often referred to as p/h) chart, it is showing that the refrigerant is gaining enthalpy.
 

 3. 

Above the critical pressure point on the saturation curve the refrigerant is liquid.
 

 4. 

If a point that is plotted on the refrigerant cycle falls on the constant quality line that has a 60 beside it, this means that at that pont the refrigerant is 60 % vapor and 40 % liquid.
 

Multiple Choice
Identify the choice that best completes the statement or answers the question.
 

 5. 

If a point in the refrigeration cycle falls outside and to the left of the saturation curves, ( page 65) the refrigerant at that point is:
a.
10 % liquid, 90 % vapor
c.
90 % liquid, 10 % vapor
b.
superheated 100 % vapor
d.
subcooled 100 % liquid
 

 6. 

The lines of constant temperature run:
a.
horizontally across the p/h chart
c.
run both horizontally and vertically across the p/h chart
b.
run vertically across the p/h chart
d.
none of the above
 

 7. 

Lines of constant enthalpy run:
a.
diagonally across the p/h chart
c.
horizontally across the p/h chart
b.
vertically across the p/h chart
d.
none of the above
 

 8. 

If a line representing a portion of the refrigeration cycle moves horizontally across the p/h chart from left to right:
a.
enthalpy is increasing
c.
temperature is remaining the same if the line is inside the horseshoe shaped saturation area
b.
pressure is remaining the same
d.
all of the above
 

 9. 

If a line representing a portion of the refrigeration cycle is moving downward vertically across the p/h chart and begins its movement at a point just to the upper left and outside the horseshoe shaped saturation area then moves into the saturation area (point A to point B, Figure 3.55, pg. 71), the refrigerant at point A is:
a.
high pressure, subcooled liquid
c.
high pressure 75 % liquid, 25 % vapor
b.
low pressure, superheated vapor
d.
none of the above
 

 10. 

If a line representing a portion of the refrigeration cycle is moving downward vertically across the p/h chart and begins its movement at a point just to the upper left and outside the horseshoe shaped saturation area then moves into the saturation area (point A to point B, Figure 3.55, pg. 71), the refrigerant at point B is:
a.
low pressure, 70 % liquid, 30 % vapor
c.
low pressure, 30 % liquid, 70 % vapor
b.
low pressure 100 % superheated vapor
d.
none of the above
 

 11. 

If a line representing a portion of the refrigeration cycle is moving downward vertically across the p/h chart and begins its movement at a point just to the upper left and outside the horseshoe shaped saturation area then moves into the saturation area (point A to point B, Figure 3.55, pg. 71), the refrigerant from point A to point B:
a.
has not changed in pressure, has increased in enthalpy and has remained at the same temperature
c.
has increased in pressure, has decreased in enthalpy, has increased in temperature
b.
has no change in enthalpy, has decreased in temperature, has increased in pressure
d.
has decreased in pressure, has remained  at the same enthalpy, has decreased in temperature
 

 12. 

If a line representing a portion of the refrigeration cycle is moving downward vertically across the p/h chart and begins its movement at a point just to the upper left and outside the horseshoe shaped saturation area then moves into the saturation area (point A to point B, Figure 3.55, pg. 71), the refrigerant at point A is:
a.
entering the condenser
c.
leaving the compressor
b.
entering the compressor
d.
entering the metering device
 

Completion
Complete each statement.
 

 13. 

On a p/e or p/h chart the starting or reference point for the heat content for refrigerant is __________° F.
 

 

 14. 

The information found in the saturation curves on a p/h chart is the same information found in the __________ chart with one exception.
 

 

 15. 

The left edge of the horseshoe shaped curve in the p/h chart is called the __________ ____________ ___________ therefore the refrigerant at this point is 100 % ____________.
 

 

 16. 

The right edge of the horseshoe shaped curve in the p/h chart is called the __________ ____________ ___________ therefore the refrigerant at this point is 100 % ____________.
 

 

 17. 

Any time a point on the refrigeration cycle falls within the saturation curves the refrigerant is in the partial ________state, partial _________ state.
 

 

 18. 

The slanted near vertical lines within the saturation curves are called the __________ ____________ lines and describe _______________________________________.
