Which limitation occurs as heat leakage increases in cryocooler heat exchangers designed after the Carnot cycle?

💡 Explanation

Increased heat leakage drops Carnot cryocooler efficiency because heat introduction bypasses the intended isothermal compression/expansion; the Coefficient of Performance (COP) decreases therefore, rather than temperature gradients becoming unexploitable unless heat flow fundamentally changes.
