What does the GWP indicator mean?


This is an indicator expressing the potential to deplete the ozone layer.
It is the global warming potential. The impact on global warming caused by 1 kg of a given gas or chemical substance, expressed as a GWP value, where GWP=1 represents the global warming caused by 1 kg of CO₂ over a period of 100 years (the global warming potential of a unit mass of a given gas over a 100-year period, relative to the warming caused by a unit mass of CO₂).
It is an expansion of the abbreviation ‘Global Warming Potential’ and indicates the rate of increase in air temperature
It is a unit expressing the ability to enhance the ozone layer.

What is superheat?


It is the amount of heat required to heat a liquid.
It is the amount of heat required to cause the vapour formed from a liquid to become superheated.
It is the amount of heat required to increase the pressure.

What is the compressor’s compression ratio?


It is the ratio of the suction pressure to the discharge pressure of the compressor (po/pk).
It is the ratio of the discharge pressure to the effective capacity of the compressor (p/Vk).
It is the ratio of the discharge pressure to the suction pressure of the compressor (pk/po).
It is the amount of refrigerant that will be compressed in a single compressor cycle relative to the heat capacity.

What is the theoretical displacement of a compressor?


This is the volume of refrigerant that flows through a reciprocating compressor during a single piston cycle.
It is the volume of refrigerant delivered by a reciprocating compressor per unit of time, usually referred to by the manufacturer as the displacement. It depends on the compressor’s geometric dimensions and rotational speed.
The displacement capacity of a compressor is expressed by the coefficient of performance (COP)
The displacement of a compressor is determined by the dimensions of the cylinder – its volume (cm³)

What is the dead volume of a compressor?


This is the space between the bottom of the piston and the crankshaft cover.
This is the space between the side surface of the piston and the cylinder.
It is the space between the valve plate and the top of the piston.
It is the space between the valve plate and the bottom dead centre of the piston.
