Refrigeration Cycle

Image
Refrigeration Cycle  Youtube Link - Video on the refrigeration cycle Basic Refrigeration Cycle  It is the base of the refrigeration system. Each and every Air-conditioner runs on this principle irrespective of location. It used fluid called refrigerant to transfer and absorb heat. In the condenser , heat is removed and in the evaporator, heat is absorbed. Main Component  1.Compressor -The compressor is the heart of the refrigeration cycle. -The compressor pumps vapor refrigerant at high pressure and temperature into a condenser, and receive superheat vapor at low temperature and pressure from the evaporator.  -Types of Compressor a) Reciprocating. b) Scroll. c) Screw. d) Rotary. e) Centrifugal 2.Condensor -It is part of refrigeration system and responsible for heat transfer. -It receives vapor refrigerant from the compressor at high temperature and pressure and removes its heat and passes it to the expansion valve. -Types of Condenser     a)air-cooled condensers     b)water-cooled cond
