refrigeration and ventilation Flashcards
what is a cold room
freezer
what is a cool room (1)
fridge
what happens to the boiling point of water if you in crease and decrease the pressure acting apon it (2)
when you increase the pressure water boils at a higher temperature
when you decrease the pressure water boils at a lower temp
describe and name the 3 ways of moving heat (3)
conduction- heat transferred by direct contact
convection- heat transferred by air
radiation- heat transferred by radiation
give examples of the 3 ways of moving heat (3)
conduction- touching a hot stove
convection- a radiator
radiation- the sun
what states to materials exist in (3)
liquid, solid, gas
what is sensible heat (1)
where the state if matter isn’t changing but heat is
what is latent heat (1)
change in state without change in temp
what is super heat (1)
any agree above 100 degrees
101 degrees = 1 degree of super heat
what temp is a cold room (1)
-18 to -22 degrees
what temp is a cool room (1)
4-6 degrees
what temp is a fruit and veg store (1)
4-6 degrees
what temp is a gally ready use cupboard (1)
5-7 degrees
what does a compressor do in the refrigerator cycle (2)
provides motive force
turns lp gas to hp gas
what does a condenser do in the refrigerator cycle (2)
uses salt water to cool the gas
turns the hp gas to hp liquid
what does a tev do in the refrigeration cycle (3)
thermal expansion valve
turns hp liquid into lp liquid
senses the temp of refrigerant leaving evaporater using a liquid line stop valve
what does a evaporator do in the refrigerator cycle (1)
turns lp liquid to lp gas
what is sub cooling
cooling down from a gas/vapor to a liquid
what do the colours mean in the sight glass indicator (2)
green- dry
yellow- moisture
explain natural defrosting (3)
turning everything off
de- store
do it every 3-6 months
explain hot gas defrosting (2)
passing a hp gass through coils
max 1 hour a day for 15 minute intervals
explain electric heating coils (2)
rod wrapped around coils
max 1 hour a day
