If a refrigeration system having T1 and T2 as lower and higher temperatures respectively then, what is the value of C.O.P of the refrigeration system working on the reversed Carnot cycle?

If a refrigeration system having T1 and T2 as lower and higher temperatures respectively then, what is the value of C.O.P of the refrigeration system working on the reversed Carnot cycle? Correct Answer T1 / (T2 − T1)

As, C.O.P. = Desired effect / Work done Here, work-done = Q1 − Q1 The desired temperature is T1. So, the heat delivered to achieve the desired temperature is Q1. C.O.P. of the heat pump = Q1 / (Q2 − Q1). According to Carnot’s theorem, C.O.P. = T1 / (T2 − T1).
