The total length of each liquid line is as follows:
ø28.58: A = 40 m
ø19.05: F + G = 4 m
ø12.70: C = 20 m
ø9.52: B + D + E + b + e + f = 35 m
ø6.35: a + c + d = 25 m
Therefore,
<Calculation example>
Additional refrigerant charge
= 40 × 0.33 + 4 × 0.14 + 20 × 0.11 + 35 × 0.054 + 25 × 0.021 + 6
+ 2 + 2 + 6
= 34.4 (34.375) kg
