A 3 cylinder 100 x 200 mm ammonia compressor with a compression efficiency of 86% operates with a suction pressure of 291.57 kPa and a condenser pressure of 1557 kPa at 18 rps. The refrigerant cools 1.8 kg/s of water from 28 0C to 3 0C and assuming 7 % of the useful refrigerating effect is lost due to the process of cooling and h2 = 1710 kJ/kg and clearance volume is 7 %. determine:   G. volume flow rate at suction H. displacement volume I. clearance volumetric efficiency J. actual volumetric efficiency
