Effects of variable-temperature heat reservoirs on performance of irreversible Carnot refrigerator with heat recovery
Abstract The outlet temperature of the heat recovery reservoir is an important parameter in the design of refrigeration with heat recovery systems. In this paper the second law of thermodynamics has been applied to an irreversible Carnot refrigerator with heat recovery (CRHR) coupled to variable-tem...
