Introduction
The following document is intended to publicize the many classifications and properties of
refrigerants with the help of a very famous tool known as a crossword puzzle, as we have
already seen a refrigerant itself is a fluid that has the ability to transfer heat, this topic is
broken down into two other types that are the primary and secondary.
Before I start I would like to provide the knowledge of what is a refrigerant and is that
according to the Engineering Notes page this fluid "is a working substance that is used in
the refrigeration machine. It is a working fluid through which heat is transferred from the
cold body to the hot body”.
Having already well defined what this type of substances we will be easier to understand
the document and thus achieve extract something from it so that in future opportunities with
this topic we are basically prepared with some of these concepts.

Conclusion
After making and examining this document we were able to complement some concepts,
which were already familiar to us, for example we defined a refrigerant as a fluid capable
of transferring heat, plus it absorbs heat by evaporation at low temperature and gives up
heat by condensation at high temperature and pressure. We also learned that refrigerants
can be divided into different types, such as primary refrigerants (which go through the
cycle of evaporation, compression, condensation and liquefaction) and secondary
refrigerants (which transfer heat from a remote point to the evaporator of the refrigeration
system).
