Resumen
This paper describes the use of endoreversible thermodynamics to evaluate the behavior of a mechanical compression refrigeration system. The coefficients of performance of the endoreversible Carnot Cycle, COPCE. were obtained by including the external irreversibility associated with heat transfer. The real coefficient of performance (COPR), the reversible Carnot coefficient of performance (COPC) and the endorreversible Carnot coefficient of performance (COPCE) were determined using experimentally obtained pressures and temperatures. The results were compared with experimental data from a laboratory refrigeration system, and the conclusion was that the COPCE was the parameter of choice for setting the theoretical limits for refrigeration system operation instead of the COPC as has been conventionally done.
