DEFINITION
• REFRIGERATION is the cooling of air/liquids, thus providing
lower temperatures to preserve food, cool beverages, make ice and for
many other applications.

REFRIGERATOR & HEAT PUMPS
Generally heat flows in the direction of
decreasing temperature
i.e from higher temperature regions to low
temperature ones.
This heat transfer process occurs in nature
without requiring any devices.
The reverse process, however, cannot occur by
itself.
The transfer of heat from a low temperature
region to a high temperature one requires special
devices called Refrigerators/Heat pumps

DEFINITION
REFRIGERATION- PRODUCTION OF COOL CONFINEMENT WITH RESPECT TO
SURROUNDINGS.

Most of the commercial refrigeration is produced by the
evaporation of a liquid called refrigerant.
Mechanical refrigeration depends upon the evaporation of liquid
refrigerant and its circuit
And its circuits includes the equipments naming evaporator,
compressor, condenser and expansion valve.
It is used for preservation of food, manufacture of ice, solid
carbon dioxide and control of air temperature and humidity in the
air-conditioning system.
