FOOD PROCESSING
What is Evaporator?
Evaporators are widely used in the food processing industry to
remove a portion of the water from food products. This reduces bulk
and weight for subsequent processing, increases solids content (as
for jams and molasses), helps in preservation of the product,
provides convenience to the end consumer and concentrates color
or flavor.
An evaporator is a device used to turn the liquid form of a chemical into its
gaseous form. The liquid is evaporated, or vaporized, into a gas.

EVAPORATOR
FLOODED EVAPORATOR
Disadvantage is it is
expensive to operate, due to
large amount of refrigerants.
Plate Type
3. Fin-tube type
-an evaporator in direct contact with the substance to be
cooled.
Fin-tube type
4. Shell- and -coil direst expansion dry evaporator
-Uses either a thermostatic or automatic expansion valve.
-Secondary refrigerant is water or brine.
-commonly used in household window air-conditioning units.
EVAPORATORS CAPACITY
If the load in the evaporator is increases, the
compressor power increases and suction power is
increases
If the load in the evaporator is decreases, the
compressor power decreases and suction power is
decreases
ACCESORIES
1.OIL SEPARATOR
- reduces oil flow through the system.
2. MUFFLER
- dampens or remove the hot- gas pulsation produced by a
reciprocating
3. HEAT EXCHANGER
-transfer heat from liquid refrigerant to the suction gas
4. FILTER DRYER
-removes moisture and solid particles from a refrigeration system.
5. BACK PRESSURE REGULATOR
- maintains constant pressure or temperature in the in the
evaporator.
6. MOISTURE INDICATOR
- designed to warn the service person when moisture in dangerous
quantities are present within the system.
etc....
2. A INDIRECT SYSTEM
Is one in which a secondary coolant cooled or heated by
the refrigerating system is circulated to the air or other
substance to be cooled or heated
