TITLE
Variation in refrigeration coefficient of performance at various process temperatures
INTRODUCTION
Refrigeration is used widely in various applications from industrial to domestic
situations, mainly for the storage and transport of perishable foodstuff and chemical
substances. It has the prime functions to remove heat from a low temperature
region, and it can also be applied as a heat pump for supplying heat to a region of
high temperature.
OBJECTIVETo investigate the variation in Coefficient of Performance (CP!R of a vapor
compression refrigeration system.
THEORY
" refrigeration cycle wor#s to lower and maintain the temperature of a controlledspace by heat transfer from a low to a high temperature region.
.
Refrigeration duty is another term for the cooling effect of the refrigeration system,which is the rate of heat being removed from the low temperature region withspecified evaporation and condensation temperatures. The unit for $duty%measurements is in &atts (for ' ton of refrigeration )*'+&!.

3.1 The Vapor Compression Cyce
Ideal refrigeration systems follows the theoretical Reversed Carnot Cycle
process. In practical refrigerators, compression and epansion of a gas andvapor miture presents practical problems in the compressor and epander.Therefore, in practical refrigeration, compression usually ta#es place in thesuperheated condition and a throttling process is substituted for the isentropicepansion.

"s the heat load increases, the evaporator superheat rises. Conversely, as the
heat load decreases, the evaporator superheat falls. The CPref Increase if the
difference of temperatures decrease where temperature in evaporator rise or
temperature in condenser falls.
Lecause, when the heat load is higher than nominal, the li4uid refrigerant in the
evaporator coil starts to boil sooner. That is, when under nominal load the last bit
of evaporation occurs at the coil outlet, but under high load conditions this last bit
of evaporation occurs upstream from the coil outlet. ThatMs why the values of

" refrigerant in gas form is generally the cooling medium agent used in modern
refrigerators. It used Chloro5>luoro5Carbon (C>C!, but it was found to be harmful
to the environment. &hen it compressed, it heats up. It passes through the warm
coils on the outside of the refrigerator and passes its heat into the air in the room
though a process #nown as thermodynamics. Thermodynamics is when a hot
and cold substance is in close proimity to one anotherN the cooler substance will
get warmer, and the hot substance will get cooler. "s it cools under pressure, the
gas becomes a li4uid. The refrigerant has made its way through the coils and
piping in the refrigerator, it warms and eventually ma#es it bac# to the evaporatorcoils where it is once again compressed and cooled through thermodynamics and

The cold air created in the condenser area is circulated throughout the
refrigerator to aid in cooling. The fans blow air from the freeDer into vents that
allow some of the cold air. The temperature of the air and the design of the
appliance allow the temperature to remain below freeDing in the freeDer while

&hen the load is increased, we can see that the value of CP ref also increases.
It is because this reason is not economical to refrigerate to a lower temp to what
it is needed. The value of CP of freeDers is approimately half of the value CP
of heat refrigerator. In economic side, it means that it will cost twice as much to
cool the heat products with refrigerated air that is cold enough to cool freeDer
product. CP of a refrigerator also decrease with decreasing refrigeration
temperature. Therefore, it is not economical to refrigerate to a lower temperature
than needed. The siDe of the compressor and the other components of a
refrigeration system are determined on the basis of the anticipated heat load

8hy@The condenser temperature was increased and then decrease. This situation
occurs when the load is increase. It is because the dry bulb temperature
increases. This because condenser is heat re8ected, as been #nown more
load supply then it absorb heat from the evaporator then compress by the
compressor. The important thing is the 4uantity of the heat supply to the
system from the surrounding. The power input is important because from its
4uantity, it can #now how much must be paid for and constitutes the main item
of the running cost. In a way or another, if the usage of electricity is high,
certainly it may result to a higher cost and be very costly. &hereas, at lower
electricity power consumption, it will certainly be more economical and lower

"s we #now, refrigeration is the device which transfers of heat from a low5

pipe passes through warm surroundings and pumping heat gain as the

than it was when it is first invented. To ensure that certain amount of load can
be applied in the refrigerator, special compartments are used. The whole shell
of the refrigerator is sealed to avoid from water lea#age or moisture migration
into the insulation since moisture degrades and decreased the effectiveness
of insulation. -arger loads are possible to practice and placed in refrigerator
nowadays because of the uses of thinner but more effective insulation that will

better door seals.
• In a factory
The use of refrigerators in factory and industrial sectors is said to be costly, but new
improvement had changed the situation. Lecause of the factors such as better
insulating material that dissipated more heat, higher efficiency yet smaller
compressor and motors, larger coils surface area, and also better door seals to
prevent air from going in and out, refrigerator use less energy than it was when it is
first invented. To ensure that certain amount of load can be applied in the
refrigerator, special compartments are used. The whole shell of the refrigerator is
sealed to avoid from water lea#age or moisture migration into the insulation since
moisture degrades and decreased the effectiveness of insulation. -arger loads are
possible to practice and placed in refrigerator nowadays because of the uses of
thinner but more effective insulation that will minimiDes the space occupied by the
compressor and the condenser.

"s a conclusion, the value of CPref is proportional to the value of load. It means
that when the load increased, the value of the CPref also increased.
