Refrigerant Condensers

As important, economy and environment on the basis of legality, it is not permissible to allow vapors, to avoid the system and dissipate into the atmosphere. Thus, the couple must be constantly collected and condensed into a liquid state, so that it can be used again and again in the vapour-compression cycle. This strategy eliminates die the need for replenishing the supply of refrigerant in the system during normal operation. Providing a means of condensation of the refrigerant vapor, capacitor is added to the system.

Condensation medium substance that absorbs the latent heat of evaporation and heat of compression is the refrigerant vapor entering the condenser. This process refrigerant heat transfer allows you to condense into a liquid phase, so that the cycle can be continuous. The most common condensing media used in refrigeration processes of water and air. When water is used as condensing environment, it usually comes from the city or from a cooling tower. When the air is used as a condensed medium, usually die ambient air outside Cabinet or air supplied from the street.

For heat flow from the superheated steam injection flowing through the condenser temperature of condensation of liquid must be below the saturation temperature of the refrigerant vapor. Cooling system is designed so that the heat of compression, increasing the temperature of the refrigerant vapor at least 20F (11.1C) above the expected condensing temperature of the medium. This design strategy ensures that this capacitor will always be able to reject the heat necessary to allow steam is cooled to its saturation temperature. Transfer of heat from the refrigerant vapor in the condensed medium allows the refrigerant to the phase changes in the liquid state. Most capacitors designed to permit some additional subcooling to high pressure and high temperature liquid refrigerant condenser and flows into the receiver.
