ANALYSIS OF REFRIGERATION SYSTEM AND CHOICE OF PROJECT AS BEST.
3.0 THE CYCLE OPERATION OF VAPOR COMPRESSION.
The cycle operation of vapor compression is as follow:
- The liquid refrigerant (e.g R12) enter the evaporator
- As liquid refrigerant and absorbs heat in the evaporator, the vapor is drawn through the suction line to the compressor.
- From the compression, the refrigerant is compressed at supper heated temperature and high pressure to the condenser
- All the condenser the refrigerant is considered at high pressure and heat is disputed.
- The liquid refrigerant is then passed through throttling device to the evaporator at low temperature as a contribution of vapor and liquid.
- At the evaporator, the refrigerant absorb the latent heat to become complete vapor before being passed to the suction side of the compressor.
3.1 TYPES OF GAS COMPRESSOR.
The most common compressor used in chiller are reciprocating, rotary screw centrifugal and scroll compressors, each applitrapping refrigerant vapor and reducing the volume of the refrigerant along the rotors to the discharge point (Myers Richard, (2003)).
ï¶ Centrifugal Compressors: centrifugal compressors are dynamic they compress refrigerant by imparting velocity or dynamic energy, using a rotary impeller and converting it to pressure energy.
ï¶ Scroll Compressor: scroll compressor are also positive displacement compressors. The refrigerant is compressed when one spiral or bit around a second stationary spiral, creating smaller and smaller pocket and higher pressures by the time the refrigerant is discharged it is fully pressurized.
3.2 THERMODYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF THE SYSTEM.
The thermodynamic of the vapor compression cycle can be analyzed on a temperature versus entropy diagram as depicted in figure. The circulating refrigerant enters the compressor as a saturation vapor which is entropically compressed (i.e. compressed at constant entropy) and exits the compressor as a super heated vapor. (Paunken mike, (1999))
From point 2 and 3, the super heated vapor travel through the part of the condenser which remove the super heat by cooling the vapor between point 3 and 4. The vapor travel through the remainder of the condenser and is condensed into a saturated liquid. The condensation process occurs at essentially constant pressure.
Between point 4 and 5, the saturated liquid refrigerant passes through the expansion value and under goes on abrupt decreases of pressure. The process results in adiabatic flash evaporation and auto refrigeration of the liquid (typically; less; than half of the liquid flashes), the adiabatic flash evaporation process is isenthalpic (i.e occurs at a constant enthalpy).
Between 5 and 1, the cold are partially vaporized refrigerant through the coil or tubes in the evaporation where it is totally vaporized by the warm air (form the space being refrigerated) that fan circulate across the coil or tube in evaporator. The evaporator operates at essentially constant pressure, the resulting saturated refrigerant vapor returns to the Compressor inlet at point 1 to complete the thermodynamic cycles.
It should be noted that the above discussion is based on the ideal vapor compression refrigeration cycle which does not take account in real world items like frictional pressure drop in the system, slight internal irreversibility during the compression of the refrigerant vapor, or non-ideal gas behavior.

ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]ABSTRACTRefrigeration is term used to denote the maintenance of a body at a temperature lower than that of its surroundings. The applications of refrigeration are many and varied. In addition to the common applications of refrigerationin the manufacture of ice, in the preservation of foods, in air-conditioning filed, and in the creation of skating rinks, the refrigeration effect is also used in the presentation of blood plasma, in the low-temperature treatment of metals and in the liquefaction o ...

CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]CHAPTER ONEINTRODUCTION1.1 HISTORY OF REFRIGERATIONBefore the invention of mechanical and thermal refrigeration system, ice houses were used to provide cool storage for most of the year placed near fresh water lakes or packed with snow and ice during the winter, they were once very common (Pauken mike 1999). Natural means are still used to cool, also mountain sides run-off from melting snow is a convenient way to cool drinks, and during the winter, one can keep milk fresh much longer just ...

CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]CHAPTER TWOLITERATURE REVIEW2.1 ABSORPTION SYSTEM OF REFRIGERATION The absorption system is difficult from the compression system. It used heat energy directly instead of mechanical system. It uses heat energy directly instead of mechanical to make change in the deduction necessary to complete as refrigeration cycle. The system may use element as source of heat (Paunken Mike, (1999) ). The system has fewer moving parts and operates relatively quietly. Such systems are used in commerc ... Continue reading---
