Answer #1

a) The refrigerant while passing through the condenser , gives up its latent heat. But the refrigerant is further cooled below its boiling point or saturated condensate temperature . This further cooling is called subcooling.

b) Subcooling is done naturally or by artificial means.

It is good because :-

1) cooler refrigerant can absorb more heat in the evaporator.

2) also at the condenser exit , after giving up the latent heat few vapour or air remains and this can damage the throttle valve. So subcooling is done.
