Coefficient of Performance - COP - is the ratio between useful energy acquired and energy applied and can be expressed as COP = Eu / Ea (2) Where COP = coefficient of performance Eu = useful energy acquired (btu in imperial units) Ea = energy applied (btu in imperial units) COP can be used to define either cooling efficiencies or heating efficiencies as for heat pumps. • Cooling - COP is defined as the ratio of heat removal to energy input to the compressor • Heating - COP is defined
