    What makes you think there is a relationship between quantity and capacity?

    Only relation with capacity is mass flow of refrigerant!
    Mass flow is defined with compressor displacement and refrigerant temperature/pressure.

    The true answer is that it has no relation what so ever.

    Just imagine that you connect a cylinder with 10kG of refrigerant to the system... Would it automatically increase the system's capacity???
