What is Refrigeration cycle and and how work this cycle  "The Mechanical refrigeration is accomplished by continuously circulating, evaporating, and condensing a fixed supply of refrigerant in a closed system. Evaporation occurs at a low temperature and low pressure while condensation occurs at a high temperature and high pressure. Thus, it is possible to transfer heat from an area of low temperature (i.e., refrigerator cabinet) to an area of high temperature.' We know that the Referring to the illustration below, beginning the cycle at the evaporator inlet (1), the low-pressure liquid expands, absorbs heat, and evaporates, changing to a low-pressure gas at the evaporator outlet (2). (The compressor (4) pumps this gas from the evaporator through the accumulator (3), increases its pressure, and discharges the high-pressure gas to the condenser (5). The accumulator is designed to protect the compressor by preventing slugs of liquid refrigerant from passing directly...
AIR TEMPERATURE  Temperature and Temperature Scales  The temperature of a substance is a measure of how hot or cold it is. Two systems are said to have equal temperatures only if there is no change in any of their observable thermal characteristics when they are brought into contact with each other. Various temperature scales commonly used to measure the temperature of various substances are illustrated in Fig. 2.2. In conventional inch-pound (I-P) units, at a standard atmospheric pressure of 14.697 psia (101,325 Pa), the Fahrenheit scale has a freezing point of 32°F (0°C) at the ice point, and a boiling point of 212°F (100°C). For the triple point with a pressure of 0.08864 psia (611.2 Pa), the magnitude on the Fahrenheit scale is 32.018°F (0.01°C). There are 180 divisions, or degrees, between the boiling and freezing points in the Fahrenheit scale. In the International System of Units (SI units), the Celsius or Centigrade scale has a freezing point of 0°C and a boilin...
