The most important consideration, while designing the refrigeration system of an aircraft is that the refrigeration system_________________?

Correct answer: D. Is as light as possible

  • A. Consumer minimum horse power
  • B. Has very high C.O.P.
  • C. Employs minimum quantity of refrigerant
  • D. Is as light as possible

Explanation

Aircraft refrigeration systems must minimize weight because every additional kilogram increases the aircraft's fuel consumption and reduces payload efficiency. High COP and low power are useful, but low mass is the primary design requirement.
