Generally most of the refrigeration system use vapor compression cycle. They involve a low boiling point refrigerant that goes through processes of compression, condensation, expansion and evaporation. It changes its phase during some of these processes. Aircraft use a similar refrigeration system except that they take use of excess air speed and pressures during their …
Generally almost all the refrigeration systems used commercially and domestically have similar principle of operation. They conduct refrigeration by vapor compression cycle. However in some cases it is more effective to use an advanced configuration. One of these refrigeration setup is called Cascade Refrigeration System. Cascade Refrigeration System uses multiple refrigeration cycles coupled with each …

Refrigeration system generally operates by the 4 major components namely compressor, condenser, expansion valve and evaporator. We use them all in a series to transport heat from low temperature zone to high temperature zone. But if we have multiple zones which have to be cooled. In this case refrigeration rack system performs better compared to …

Are you living in an area that has high humidity over the year? May be it’s the season of the year in which the weather appears to be humid. You disliking humidity may be wondering whether your air conditioner can control humidity. If yes, how it does that? Well this article specifically covers that. An …
In most refrigeration and air-conditioning systems used throughout the world vapor compression cycle is used with a refrigerant as working fluid. The vapor compression cycle though demonstrated usually is theoretical and not the actual one. Actual vapor compression cycle is different from theoretical vapor compression cycle. In actual vapor compression cycle condensation and evaporation do …

In heat pumps and refrigerators one of the major four processes is compression. It involves the application of pressure on the working fluid to decrease its volume and add to its internal energy. It is the only process in which work is done on the refrigerant in the entire cycle. It has two basic types: …
