Answer:

the advantages of using multistage compression refrigeration system over a single stage compression system are as follows:

Step-by-step explanation:

  • It results in increased volumetric efficiency of compressor due to decrease in pressure ratio in each stage.
  • Cost of operation is comparatively low
  • Uniformity in torque is achieved thus reducing the size of the flywheel.
  • Reduced size of condensor as a result of heat removal during condensation
  • Lower temperature at the end of compression resulting in effective lubrication and increased compressor life.
