Reversed Carnot Reversed Carnot CycleCycle
Reversing the Carnot cycle does reverse the directions of heat and work interactions.
A refrigerator or heat pump that operates on the reversed Carnot cycle is called a Carnot refrigerator or a Carnot heat pump.
The reversed Carnot cycle is the most efficient refrigeration cycle operating between two specified temperature levels.
It sets the highest theoretical COP.
Schematic of a Carnot Refrigerator
(1-2) refrigerant absorbs heat isothermally from a low temperature source at TL in the amount of QL.
(2-3) refrigerant compressed to state 3 (temperature rises to TH)
(3-4) refrigerant reject heat to high temperature at TH in the amount QH. Refrigerant changes from saturated vapor state to a saturated liquid state in the condenser .
(4-1) refrigerant expands adiabatically to state 1(temperature drops to TL)
Schematic of a Carnot Refrigerator and T-S diagram of Reversed Carnot Cycle
Reversed Carnot CycleReversed Carnot CycleConsists of 4 processes 1. Adiabatic Compression2. Isothermal Compression3. Adiabatic Expansion4. Isothermal Expansion
(1-2) Adiabatic compression of the working fluid with the aid of external work.The temperature of the fluid rises from T2 to T1.
(2-3) Isothermal compression of the working fluid during which heat is rejected at constant high temperature T1.
(3-4) Adiabatic expansion of the working fluid. The temperature of the working fluid falls from T2 to T1.
(4-1) Isothermal expansion of air where heat is absorbed at low temperature T2 from the space being cooled.

The result is a cycle that operates in the counterclockwise direction on T-S diagram, which is called the Reversed Carnot Cycle.
COP of Refrigerator COP of Refrigerator Heat absorbed Q2 = T2dsHeat rejected Q1 = T1ds Work input = Heat Rejected – Heat Absorbed = Q1- Q2 = T1ds - T2ds =(T1-T2)ds

Practically, the reversed Carnot cycle cannot be used for refrigeration purpose as the adiabatic process requires very high speed operation, whereas the isothermal process requires very low speed operation.
