Option 2 : Specific enthalpy of the refrigerant remains constant during the throttling process.

Explanation:

The vapor-compression cycle is a process used to extract heat from a box or a room that underlies most refrigeration and air conditioning techniques. It consists of four separate stages:

  • Compression(1-2) Isentropic Compression
  • Condensation(2-3) Heat rejection at constant pressure
  • Expansion(3-4) Constant enthalpy expansion
  • Evaporation (4-1) Constant pressure heat addition.

 

​The T-s and P-h diagram is shown in the figure below.

Statement 1:

From the above diagram enthalpy process (3-4) in pressure-enthalpy chart is a vertical line.

Statement 2:

From the above diagram enthalpy process (3-4) in pressure-enthalpy chart is vertical line i.e. specific enthlapy is constant.

Statement 3 and 4:

From the above diagram enthalpy process (3-4) in pressure-enthalpy chart is vertical line i.e. it remains constant.
