Freezing Method
Slow Freezing:
accomplished by placing the product in a low temperature room and
allowing it to freeze slowly, usually in still air.
Formed Ice crystals are large, and damage food cells thus causing loss of
flavor, texture and color.

This technique, although not common, is used commercially for canned citrus juice
concentrate (cans of juice are passed continuously through a chamber containing liquid
freezant); for poultry especially during the initial stages of freezing ( to impart a
uniform, white color to the surface); and an occasionally for fish and shrimp.

Refrigeration Cycle
Expansion Process:
Carnot cycle demands that the expansion take place isentropically
and that the resulting work be used to help drive the compressor.
Practical difficulties, however, militate against the expansion
engine:
• Isentropic expander is costly and more complex.
• the possible work that can be derived from the engine is
small fraction that must be supplied to the compressor.
• the economics of the power recovery have in past not
justified the cost of the expansion engine.

Co-efficient of Performance
A single stage vapor compression refrigeration system has one low side pressure (evaporator
pressure) and one high side pressure (condenser pressure). The performance of single stage
systems shows that these systems are adequate as long as the temperature difference between
evaporator and condenser (temperature lift) is small. However, there are many applications
where the temperature lift can be quite high.
The temperature lift can become large either due to the requirement of very low evaporator
temperatures and/or due to the requirement of very high condensing temperatures. For
example, in frozen food industries the required evaporator can be as low as –40 oC, while in
chemical industries temperatures as low as –150 oC may be required for liquefaction of gases.
On the high temperature side the required condensing temperatures can be very high if the
refrigeration system is used as a heat pump for heating applications such as process heating,
drying etc. However, as the temperature lift increases the single stage systems become
inefficient and impractical.

Co-efficient of Performance
Effect of Evaporation temperature
It can be seen from the T s diagrams that for a given condenser temperature, as evaporator temperature
decreases:
1. Throttling losses increase
2. Superheat losses increase
3. Compressor discharge temperature increases
4. Quality of the vapor at the inlet to the evaporator increases
5. Specific volume at the inlet to the compressor increases
As a result of this, the refrigeration effect decreases and work of compression increases as shown in the P h
diagram. The volumic refrigeration effect also decreases rapidly as the specific volume increases with
decreasing evaporator temperature.
Similar effects will occur, though not in the same proportion when the condenser temperature increases for
a given evaporator temperature.
