      2.0    LITERATURE REVIEW
      Refrigeration is branch of engineering that is concerned with the science of producing and maintaining temperature below that of the surrounding atmosphere [Raymond, C.G. (1973)]. It also the process of removing heat from the substance.
      Before the advent of mechanical refrigeration, water was kept cool by storing in semi-porous pots, so that the water could seep through and evaporate. The evaporation carried away heat and cooled the water [Raymond, C.G. (1 973)].
      The first development took place in 1834 when Perkins proposed a hand operated compressor working machine. In 1851 came Gorries and in 1856 Lind developed a machine working on ammonia [Andrew, D. & Alfred, (1970)]. The development was considered quickened in the forties when Dupent put in the market, a family of new working substances, the floro chloro derivate of methane,1 ethane etc. under the name of ferons; then followed the liquefaction of other permanent gases included helium in 1908. [Andrew, D. & Alfred, F.B. (1970)].
      In 1926, Ginque and Diebye independently proposed adiabatic demagnetization of a paramagnetic salt. In 19th century application of mechanical refrigeration in fields other than ice making including direct cooling and freezing of perishables foods, air conditioning for industry and human comfort [[Andrew, D. & Alfred, F. B. (1970)].

    • ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]ABSTRACTThis project is on the design and fabrication of deep freezer for the preservation of items/products and making the items to cool. The project is able to develop a simple efficient economical and environmental friendly refrigeration system (A freezer) towards better technological advancement in Nigeria. This project modifies the existing refrigeration system with the use of R-600a which is ozone friendly, and non-contaminant like previous refrigerant of the hydrofluoric-carbon, HFC and C ...

      CHAPTER THREE - [ Total Page(s): 5 ]3.3.4 CAPILLARY TUBEThis device operate on the principle that a given weight of refrigerant liquid will pass through a capillary more readily than the same weight of gas will do at the same pressure. Immediately the condensed refrigerant enters the capillary tube, the mass flow of this refrigerant will be reduced them by giving more room for cooling time.ADVANTAGE OF THE TYPES OF CAPILLARY TUBE USED FOR THIS PROJECT LIES INa. Its simplicityb. Ease of being welded to the suction for heat exchangi ... Continue reading---

         

      CHAPTER FOUR - [ Total Page(s): 5 ]4.3.1     TYPES OF EVAPORATOREvaporators are mainly classified as:i. The dry or direct expansion typeii. The flooded type.I.     THE DRY OR DIRECT EXPANSION TYPEA part of the heat transfer surface is used for superheating the vapor. Therefore refrigerant leaves the coil in a dry state that is as a dry vapor. [Althouse, A. D(1968)].II.     THE FLOODED TYPEIf flooded evaporators, the liquid refrigerant covers the entire heat- surface. As the liquid refrigerant leaves the evaporator, any l ...
