refrigeration theory - advice required

[solas]

Hi to all

I am currently working on a refrigeration assignment and would like some advice on the following acroyms. CCAP & HCAP

These two terms are included in the following equation:
COOLING COEFFICIENT OF PERFORMANCE = CCAP/POWER CONSUMPTION

HEATING COEFFICIENT OF PERFORMANCE = HCAP/POWER CONSUMPTION

I would appreciate it if somebody could define there terms.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Toosh

Thanks for your comment.

Fortunately I understand how COP is derived through Q/W, but my query lies with the acronyms as Im not sure what they stand for. i.e CCAP & HCAP.
I probably didnt word the query properly in the first place.

I would like to know if CCAP could mean wither cooling coil actual capacity or cooling capacity actual performance.

Thanks again.
