REFRIG / 044
Refrigeration COP, EER & Capacity Calculator
Convert cooling capacity and compressor power into the performance metrics commonly used to compare refrigeration, heat-pump and HVAC systems.
Use the cycle check to challenge the model.
COP is easy to calculate but easy to misuse. A useful comparison requires the same operating temperatures, load definition, auxiliary-power boundary and refrigerant-side assumptions.
Define the state basis. Keep refrigerant state points, air-side conditions and power boundaries explicit.
Calculate transparently. The tool exposes the engineering balance rather than hiding it in a property lookup.
Compare with the CFD or 1D model. Use disagreement to identify inconsistent state definitions or component assumptions.
Continue from cycle balance to thermal diagnosis.
Connect the result to psychrometrics, multiphase checks or project-specific CFD support.
