Question

Sub-cooling in a vapour compression refrigeration system ________enthalpy of liquid refrigerant below saturation level.

वाष्प संपीड़न प्रशीतन प्रणाली में उप-शीतलन, संतृप्ति स्तर के नीचे तरल प्रशीतक की एन्थैल्पी।

A.

reduces

B.

keeps same

C.

enhances

D.

may reduce or enhance 

Answer ( Option A)

reduces

Solution

In Vapour Compression Refrigeration System (VCRS), during sub-cooling to increase efficiency of cycle we drop the temperature of the fluid below saturated liquid line, because of which we observe thedecrease in enthalpy.

i.e. from the figure


Means there is drop in enthalpy.

Hence, the correct option is (A).

&Key Points:-

For sub-cooling to be done, generally the condenser coils are extended and given a larger magnitude of length.
