A refrigeration machine is required to produce ice at 0 0 C from water at 20°C. The machine has a condenser temperature of 25°C while evaporator temperature is -5°C. The relative efficiency of the machine is 50% and 6 kg of Freon-12 is circulated through the system per minute. The refrigerant enters in the compressor with dryness fraction of 0.6. Calculate the amount of ice produced in 24 hrs. Take latent heat of ice 335 kJ/kg.
