Due to subcooling of refrigerant there is increase in refrigerating effect but work input remains same hence C.O.P. increases.

Subcooling increases, the COP reaches a maximum as a result of a trade-off between increasing refrigerating effect and specific compression work. Refrigerants with large latent heat of vaporization tend to benefit less from condenser.

Subcooling refers to a liquid existing at a temperature below its normal boiling point.

Draw VCRS, the RE increases and work remains constant. c.o.p is RE/WD so cop increase.

Arka goswami said:   8 years ago
Cop will decrease.

If sub cooling has to be done therefore heat input will also be more therefore refrigerating effect gets increased.

As we know cop is the ratio of refrigerating effect by work done and refrigerating effect increases therefore cop increases.

Can you explain it why cop is increased?

Its "coefficient of performance".

What is full form of C.O.P?
