A refrigeration cycle is a reversed heat engine. Which of the following has the maximum value of the co-efficient of performance (COP) for a given refrigeration effect?

A Vapor compression cycle using expansion valve
B Air refrigeration cycle
C Vapor compression cycle using expansion engine
D Carnot refrigeration cycle

Correct Answer: Carnot refrigeration cycle

Carnot refrigeration cycle has maximum COP since carnot is an ideal cycle consisting of reversiable changes at each and every step and hence no losses.
