Awesome! Thanks. Also, just to double check - I can find mdot by using: mdot = Flow Rate / (Specific Volume-vapor stage 1), correct?

I see what you mean when you say to find the intersection of T and P. It makes sense. But we are only given the tables. Would I have to interpolate the two values (vf @ T=-24C and vf @ P=100kPa)? Also, when you say follow the isentropic line - would I use the liquid or vapor entropy value?

R134-a Tables Use T or P?? Using the Saturated R134-a tables, I'm a little confused as to when I should look up values according to temperature or pressure. In this particular problem: Refrigerant-134a enters a compressor at 100kPa and -24ºC with a flow rate of 1.35 cfm and leaves at 800kPa...
