The reversed Carnot cycle is a thermodynamic process utilized in refrigerators, where the working substance undergoes adiabatic compression, increasing its temperature, followed by isothermal compression, during which heat is expelled to the sink. The confusion arises from the terminology used; the working substance absorbs heat from the low-temperature reservoir during the evaporation phase, not the sink. This cycle effectively transfers heat from a cooler area to a warmer area, demonstrating the principles of thermodynamics in refrigeration systems.
PREREQUISITESStudents of thermodynamics, engineers in HVAC systems, and anyone interested in understanding refrigeration technology and its underlying principles.
Both of those are wrong, so please post an example of the "everywhere" where you got that.avistein said:Then it is isothermally compressed so that the heat is rejected to the sink.But then why it is said everywhere that the working substance absorbs heat from sink? Please explain me the full procedure.I am confused here.
