Coefficient of performance for a low-dissipation Carnot-like refrigerator with nonadiabatic dissipation

Coefficient of performance for a low-dissipation Carnot-like refrigerator with nonadiabatic dissipation

We study the coefficient of performance (COP) and its bounds for a Carnot-like refrigerator working between two heat reservoirs at constant temperatures ${T}_{h}$ and ${T}_{c}$, under two optimization criteria $\ensuremath{\chi}$ and $\ensuremath{\Omega}$. In view of the fact that an ``adiabatic'' process usually takes finite time and is nonisentropic, the nonadiabatic …
