COP_theoretical = Q_ref/w
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Theoretical Coefficient of Performance - Theoretical Coefficient of Performance is the maximum theoretical efficiency of a refrigeration system, representing the ideal performance of an air refrigeration system under ideal conditions.
Heat Extracted from Refrigerator - (Measured in Joule per Kilogram) - Heat Extracted from Refrigerator is the amount of heat energy transferred from the refrigerator to the surrounding air during the air refrigeration process.
Work Done - (Measured in Joule per Kilogram) - Work Done is the energy transferred from one body to another due to a force applied, resulting in the displacement of an object in air refrigeration.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Heat Extracted from Refrigerator: 600 Kilojoule per Kilogram --> 600000 Joule per Kilogram (Check conversion here)
Work Done: 1000 Kilojoule per Kilogram --> 1000000 Joule per Kilogram (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

COP_theoretical = Q_ref/w --> 600000/1000000

Evaluating ... ...

COP_theoretical = 0.6

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.6 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.6 <-- Theoretical Coefficient of Performance

What is Theoretical Coefficient of Performance of Refrigerator?

The Theoretical Coefficient of Performance (COP) of a refrigerator is the maximum efficiency the system can achieve under ideal conditions. It represents the ratio of the cooling effect produced to the work input required, assuming no losses or inefficiencies. This value provides a benchmark for comparing actual performance and helps identify potential areas for improvement in the refrigeration system.
