Which of the following statement is wrong?
A. The performance of the vapour compression refrigerator varies considerably with both vaporising and condensing temperatures.
B. In vapour compression cycle, the useful part of the heat transfer is at the condenser.
C. In ammonia-hydrogen (Electrolux) refrigerator, no compressor, pump or fan is required.
D. The effect of under-cooling the liquid refrigerant is to decrease the coefficient of performance.
Answer: Option D
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Subcooling in refrigeration implies cooling the refrigerant in liquid state, at uniform pressure, to a temperature that is less than the saturation temperature, which corresponds to condenser pressure.This Question Belongs to Mechanical Engineering >> Refrigeration And Air Conditioning

Nusselt number (NN) is given by
A. $${{\text{N}}_{\text{N}}} = \frac{{{\text{h}}l}}{{\text{k}}}$$
B. $${{\text{N}}_{\text{N}}} = \frac{{\mu {{\text{c}}_{\text{p}}}}}{{\text{k}}}$$
C. $${{\text{N}}_{\text{N}}} = \frac{{\rho {\text{V}}l}}{\mu }$$
D. $${{\text{N}}_{\text{N}}} = \frac{{{{\text{V}}^2}}}{{{\text{t}}{{\text{c}}_{\text{p}}}}}$$
In case of sensible heating of air, the coil efficiency is given by (where B.P.F. = Bypass factor)
A. B.P.F. - 1
B. 1 - B.P.F.
C. $$\frac{1}{{{\text{B}}{\text{.P}}{\text{.F}}{\text{.}}}}$$

The undesirable property of a refrigerant is
A. Non-toxic
B. Non-flammable
C. Non-explosive
D. High boiling point
The desirable property of a refrigerant is
A. Low boiling point
B. High critical temperature
C. High latent heat of vaporisation
D. All of these
I dont think so. The wrong statement is B. the useful heat transfer takes place at the evaporator.
