24
Q

A ton of refrigeration is equal to

A

288,000 Btu/24-hr

25
What parts of the refrigeration cycle change the vapour to a liquid and liquid back into a vapour
Condensor and Evaporator
26
Evaporator is used to
Absorb heat for the product to be cooled
27
Reciprocating compressors have a
Piston and cylinder
28
Condenser is used to
Reject heat from the refrigerant
29
The compressor is used to
Pump refrigerant throughout the system
30
Which refrigerant has no chlorine in it
R-134A
31
Oil in a refrigeration system containing an HFC
POE
32
Refrigerants near azeorope or zeatrope are
HFCs
33
Term for desirable behaviour of oil and refrigerant is
Miscibility
34
Best method of leak checking is
Nitrogen 150 Psig
35
When moisture is present in a refrigeration system, it will react with the refrigerant and oil to form
Acid
36
Noncondensable gases are
Undesirable in a refrigeration system
37
To pull a vacuum means
Lower the pressure in a system below atmospheric
38
A micron gauge is used to measure
Absolute pressures below 1 mm hg
39
Deep vaccum is how many microns
500-250
40
Multiple evacuation means
Pull a vacuum multiple times
41
Connecting line material for most accurate testing is
Copper tube
41
Refrigerant in vapour form must enter through the
Suction line
41
When charging a system with vapour refrigerant, the cylinder becomes
Cold
42
Refrigerant in liquid form enters through the
Liquid line
43
How is a cylinder placed when charging a system
Upside down
44
If a system is overcharged, what happens
Increased operating pressures
45
Fractionation/glide occurs when
Some of a blended refrigerant evaporates or condenses before the rest of the blend
46
When charging or running a system with 410A, what must be done to prevent liquid from entering the system
Charge as a liquid through the low side with a restriction
47
Change of state from solid to vapour
Sublimation
48
Which component can suffer from internal ice accumulation?
Metering device
49
The oil in a vacuum pump should be changed...
After every use
50
Maximum pressure for leak testing with nitrogen
150 psig
51
Air left in a system can lead to
Compressor failure
52
