Compression Ratio given Pressure Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Compression Ratio = Discharge Pressure of Refrigerant/Suction Pressure
r = P₂/P₁
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Compression Ratio - Compression Ratio is the ratio of the absolute stage discharge pressure to the absolute stage suction pressure.
Discharge Pressure of Refrigerant - (Measured in Pascal) - Discharge Pressure of Refrigerant is the pressure of the refrigerant after the compression stage or it is the pressure of the refrigerant at the discharge.
Suction Pressure - (Measured in Pascal) - Suction Pressure is the pressure of the refrigerant before the compression. It is also called the suction pressure of the refrigerant.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge Pressure of Refrigerant: 8 Bar --> 800000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Suction Pressure: 1.68421052631579 Bar --> 168421.052631579 Pascal (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

r = P₂/P₁ --> 800000/168421.052631579

Evaluating ... ...

r = 4.75

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

4.75 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

4.75 <-- Compression Ratio
