Comparison between VCR and VAR VAPOUR COMPRESSION REFRIGERATION: VCR stands for Vapour Compression Refrigeration Cycle. It is the most widely used refrigeration system in which the working fluid is a vapor which readily evaporates and condenses (changes alternately between the vapor and liquid phase) without leaving the refrigerating plant. During evaporation, it absorbs heat from the cold body and this heat is used as its latent heat for converting it from liquid to vapour; whereas in condensing or cooling, it rejects heat to external bodies, thus returning back to liquid form.
