What is the work input to the refrigerator


Helium has the lowest normal boiling point of any of the elements at 4.2 K. At this temperature the enthalpy of evaporation is 83.3 kJ/kmol. A Carnot refrigeration cycle is analyzed for the production of 1 kmol of liquid helium at 4.2 K from saturated vapor at the same temperature. What is the work input to the refrigerator and the coefficient of performance for the cycle with an ambient at 300 K?
