As frosting commences, heat extracted from the air by the evaporator is reduced, resulting in a decrease in refrigerant temperature, a decrease in refrigerant density at the compressor inlet, and reduction in both refrigerant flow rate and compressor power.

The mass of frost accumulated on the evaporator increases with air relative humidity.

The heating capacity and COP of the heat pump increased initially but later showed a gradual drop due to the insulating effect and drop in air flow.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
