Engineering Flashcards
What is the 1st step of the refrigeration cycle?
Compression, 236FA is compressed into vapor in the compressor
What is the 2nd step of the refrigeration cycle?
Condensation, vapor is condensed into liquid in the condenser
What is the 3rd step of the refrigeration cycle?
Evaporation, liquid goes to chiller and is sprayed through tubes that remove heat from water
What is the 4th step of the refrigeration cycle?
Expansion, washes back to vapor and goes back to cycle through
