What is the value of maximum COP in case of absorption refrigeration, if refrigeration provided is at temperature, TR (where, T1 and T2 are source & surrounding temperatures respectively.) ?

Correct answer: A. TR/(T2 - TR) × (T1 - T2)/T1

  • A. TR/(T2 - TR) × (T1 - T2)/T1
  • B. TR/(T2 - TR) × T1/(T1 - T2)
  • C. TR/(T1 - TR) × (T1 - T2)/T1
  • D. None of these

Explanation

The ideal absorption refrigerator combines the refrigerator factor TR/(T2 - TR) with the heat-engine factor (T1 - T2)/T1. Their product gives the maximum COP shown in option a.
