Lowest temperature during the cycle in a vapour compression system occurs after condensation or throttling.

Yes, you are right @Nikunj Miyani.

Sohel said:   7 years ago
D is right because in evaporator latent heat is transfer so the temperature remains same only phase change occurs.

In general the lowest temperature in any refrigeration cycle is occur after the EXPANSION process only. But in the answer mentioned that is after evaporation.

In the process of evaporation the refrigerant collect latent heat from bodies.

Nikunj Miyani said:   8 years ago
Both B and D answers are right. Because in evaporation, Refrigerant Absorbs latent heat at constant pressure. Only state changes, not temperature.

Bhavi said:   8 years ago
It's after expansion.

Chacoboy said:   8 years ago
Due to sudden drop of pressure at expansion the temperature also drops but after expansion latin heat is received during the evaporation so correct answer is Expansion.

Sumesh said:   9 years ago
Right answer is option B. Expansion.

Krishan kaushik said:   9 years ago
Lowest temperature is caused after the condenser.

Suresh said:   9 years ago
Both answer are correct.

As during evaporation latent heat is added.
