Universal Coefficient of Performance at Maximum Figure of Merit for
Tight-Coupling Refrigerators
   [PDF]

Shiqi Sheng, Z. C. Tu
It is found that the coefficient of performance at maximum figure of merit for tight-coupling refrigerators operating between two heat baths at small temperature difference is inversely proportional to the square root of relative temperature difference. This universal 1/2-power law is quite different from the universality of efficiency at maximum power which is one half of the relative temperature difference for tight-coupling heat engines working between two baths at small temperature difference.
