For most of the last fifty years, refrigeration and heat pump systems have been based on cycles using a fluorocarbon as the working fluid. Hovvever, with the discovery that fluorocarbons may have a profoundly detrimental effect on the earth ·s atmosphere. it has become necessary to find a suitable replacement for a fluorocarbon based refrigeration cycle. Such a replacement must perform comparab...

The study was carried out for the preparation of good quality mixed vegetable juice from tomato, cucumber and pumpkin. Three formulations of different percentages of juices of each vegetable were used for the preparation of mixed juice. The products were then analyzed for their chemical analysis, statistical analysis, sensory evaluation, microbiological study and storage studies during 60 days ...

This paper introduces the dual-mode refrigeration system for ice storage air conditioning. A computational model relating to the exergy loss amount and loss rate is developed in each component of the refrigeration cycle loop. A case study is presented to demonstrate the applicability of the model developed. Exergy analysis results of the refrigeration system in ice storage operating mode are co...

The refrigeration cycle with the thro~tling device has moe work power consumption and less refrigeration capacity than tha~ with the expander. It is S':Jggested that substituting the expander for the throttling device in the refrigeration cycle should be the efficient way for saving the energy of the refrigeration system. Up to now, the design and ~anufacturing of the two-phase expander seems t...

Refrigeration is one of the leading uses of electric power in the United States. The term "refrigeration" refers to air-conditioning for homes, businesses, and industry and the operation of refrigerators, freezers, and heat pumps. The technology most often used in refrigeration, the vapor compression cycle, is 100 years old, inefficient, and environmentally unsound. Since the 1980s, the refrige...

Ammonia can be applied to any type and size of refrigeration system from domestic refrigeration to commercial refrigeration and air-conditioning to industrial refrigeration. However, it is desirable to minimize the charge to prevent toxic effects and, sometimes to use secondary refrigerants, such as volatile carbon dioxide, to keep ammonia away from the general public. This article describes a ...

Due to their contribution to the ozone depletion and the anthropogenic greenhouse warming effect caused by the refrigerant as well as the foam blowing agent household refrigerators and freezers were attracting public attention especially in Western Europe. The conversion to the use of environmentally benign fluids as refrigerants and foam blowing agents requires a large number of extensive, exp...

Three combined power and refrigeration system are introduced to compare and analyze for a defined demand and same fuel consumption based on thermodynamic parameters in a 24 hours period. Gas turbine and/or steam turbine are used for power generation and also ejector refrigeration cycle is used to produce cooling. These three systems are named as GER, SER and GSER. The results of three systems a...

â liquefied natural gas (lng) is the most economical way of transporting natural gas (ng) over long distances. liquefaction of ng by using vapor compression refrigeration system requires high operating and capital cost. due to lack of systematic design methods for multistage refrigeration cycles, the conventional approaches of determining optimal cycle configuration are mostly based on trial-an...

As refrigeration has become one of the basic needs people of this era. The permanent demand of refrigerator is continuously increases in India and also in the whole world. The energy consumption in the refrigeration is also increases. Approximately it contribute around 13% energy consume in this sector. In the kitchen appliances, only the refrigerator consumes power continuously throughout a da...
