A vapor-compression refrigeration cycle operates at steady state with Refrigerant 134a as the working fluid. Saturated vapor enters the compressor at 2 bar, and saturated liquid exits the condenser at 8 bar. The isentropic compressor efficiency is 80%. The mass flow rate of refrigerant is 7 kg/min.
