 Variable expansion process in VCRS can provide optimized performance
eliminating need for drastic changes throughout the system.
 Life of system can also be improved by elimination of irregularities in operating
time, reducing maintenance costs
 Existing systems can also be adapted up to a certain extent providing extended
performance and other benefits.
 Overall efficiency of the system can be improved on basis of varying
environmental conditions.
 Reduction in waste of energy and waste of resources can be achieved due to
extension of existing refrigeration machines.
