00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.190
Have you ever wondered how your refrigerator works?
00:00:03.620 --> 00:00:07.720
Refrigerators use simple and interesting scientific principles
00:00:07.720 --> 00:00:10.900
Became an integral part of the home
00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:15.095
With a basic refrigerator model
00:00:15.095 --> 00:00:17.815
Explain in detail the operation of modern refrigerators
00:00:17.815 --> 00:00:20.885
Demystifying the good energy conversion efficiency behind refrigerators
00:00:22.715 --> 00:00:25.495
The basic refrigerator principle is simple
00:00:25.495 --> 00:00:29.600
Cooling by continuously passing cooler refrigerant in the object
00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:36.300
Let's see how the refrigerant in the refrigerator flows
00:00:37.060 --> 00:00:39.540
A simple device called a refrigerant controller
00:00:39.540 --> 00:00:41.900
Is the most important component of a refrigerator
00:00:41.980 --> 00:00:45.240
Capillaries are used as channels in the refrigerant controller
00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:48.420
Refrigerant flows by generating capillary phenomenon
00:00:48.420 --> 00:00:50.960
To ensure more efficient flow
00:00:50.965 --> 00:00:53.775
Refrigerators must ensure that the refrigerant at the inlet is under high pressure
00:00:55.880 --> 00:00:58.540
Refrigerant is injected into the pipe
00:00:58.540 --> 00:01:01.900
Pressure drops when refrigerant flows
00:01:01.900 --> 00:01:07.200
When the pressure drops, the boiling point of the refrigerant also decreases.
00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:12.115
Decrease of boiling point has enough energy for evaporation of refrigerant
00:01:12.115 --> 00:01:14.235
So evaporation causes the temperature to drop
00:01:15.615 --> 00:01:18.305
If you observe the temperature of the refrigerant controller,
00:01:18.305 --> 00:01:19.855
You will find this phenomenon
00:01:23.020 --> 00:01:26.480
Please note that only in this part of the refrigerant will evaporate
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:29.700
This is an important part of refrigerant flow
00:01:29.700 --> 00:01:34.720
It should be able to change the pressure of the refrigerant at this stage at room temperature
00:01:36.620 --> 00:01:38.840
The next stage is simple
00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:41.920
Just let the refrigerant pass through to cool the inside of the refrigerator
00:01:45.140 --> 00:01:46.880
When absorbing heat
00:01:46.880 --> 00:01:50.800
Refrigerant further evaporates and converts into more pure vapor
00:01:51.960 --> 00:01:55.040
Heat exchange at this stage
00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:57.220
Did not increase the temperature of the refrigerant
00:01:57.220 --> 00:01:59.980
This heat exchange is called evaporation
00:02:03.820 --> 00:02:06.635
Thanks to using the evaporator fan in the refrigerator
00:02:06.635 --> 00:02:08.635
Manufacturing air circulation
00:02:08.640 --> 00:02:11.540
Ability to maintain different levels of temperature
00:02:13.180 --> 00:02:16.180
So we produce the desired cooling effect
00:02:16.180 --> 00:02:19.640
If we can change the low-pressure refrigerant back to its original state
00:02:19.640 --> 00:02:22.140
Which is changed back to high pressure liquid
00:02:22.140 --> 00:02:23.820
We will repeat this process
00:02:24.195 --> 00:02:26.985
So the first step is to increase stress
00:02:27.085 --> 00:02:29.615
The compressor is used for this purpose
00:02:31.585 --> 00:02:35.035
The compressor will increase the pressure to its initial pressure value
00:02:35.325 --> 00:02:38.795
You can see here using a reciprocating compressor
00:02:39.165 --> 00:02:42.155
However, while compression is in progress
00:02:42.155 --> 00:02:44.705
Temperature rises with pressure
00:02:44.705 --> 00:02:46.275
Is not allowed to happen
00:02:47.165 --> 00:02:50.135
The state of the refrigerant is high-pressure gas.
00:02:50.140 --> 00:02:52.520
To transform it into a liquid
00:02:52.540 --> 00:02:54.600
We will introduce another heat exchange device
00:02:54.860 --> 00:02:57.740
This device is set outside the refrigerator
00:02:57.740 --> 00:03:00.660
Thus releasing heat around it
00:03:00.740 --> 00:03:03.140
Refrigerant will change from gaseous to liquid
00:03:03.180 --> 00:03:04.960
The temperature will also reach normal levels
00:03:04.980 --> 00:03:06.700
This device is called a condenser
00:03:07.185 --> 00:03:09.655
Now the refrigerant has returned to its original state
00:03:09.655 --> 00:03:12.615
So it can provide refrigerant controller at one time
00:03:15.405 --> 00:03:17.565
Just keep repeating this cycle
00:03:17.785 --> 00:03:20.615
We will be able to achieve a continuous cooling effect
00:03:20.615 --> 00:03:24.700
Furthermore, this cycle is called a vapor compression cycle
00:03:25.300 --> 00:03:28.275
The performance of a refrigerator can be determined by a method called
00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:30.380
Find the formula for "performance coefficient"
00:03:30.500 --> 00:03:34.375
The formula is from output (heat absorption) ÷ input (power used)
00:03:34.375 --> 00:03:37.505
As shown in the figure, the representation number can be easily obtained from the definition
00:03:40.225 --> 00:03:43.235
This may have been the most basic refrigerator
00:03:43.235 --> 00:03:46.225
This refrigerator can theoretically run smoothly
00:03:46.225 --> 00:03:48.825
But in practice it encounters many problems
00:03:48.825 --> 00:03:51.985
Let's take a look at the problem and how to overcome it
00:03:53.785 --> 00:03:57.600
The main problem is frost in the freezer
00:03:59.515 --> 00:04:02.555
Water molecules in the air in the freezer
00:04:02.555 --> 00:04:05.595
So when air comes in contact with the evaporator tray
00:04:05.595 --> 00:04:09.800
They will condense and frost around the evaporator dish
00:04:10.595 --> 00:04:13.715
The surface of the frost can cause heat to not be transmitted
00:04:13.715 --> 00:04:16.175
And the performance of the refrigerator decreases over time
00:04:16.835 --> 00:04:19.765
The smartest way is with the help of a heating tube
00:04:19.765 --> 00:04:21.595
Remove frost at regular intervals
00:04:23.435 --> 00:04:26.365
That's why the bottom of your refrigerator
00:04:26.365 --> 00:04:27.985
There will be a basin
00:04:32.665 --> 00:04:35.615
Also, in modern refrigerators
00:04:35.615 --> 00:04:38.625
You will not see the condenser tray behind your refrigerator
00:04:38.625 --> 00:04:41.565
Replaced by a more compact design
00:04:44.005 --> 00:04:46.875
The ability to achieve a compact design is entirely aided by a cooling fan
00:04:46.935 --> 00:04:49.835
The effect of insulating hot air is also achieved here.
00:04:49.835 --> 00:04:52.795
And hot air can also be used during defrosting
00:04:52.795 --> 00:04:55.975
Used to evaporate the water that flows down after defrosting
00:04:58.595 --> 00:05:01.305
The refrigerator looks like this after improvement
00:05:02.395 --> 00:05:07.300
The temperature distribution of various parts of the refrigerator is shown in the figure, which is interesting
00:05:07.655 --> 00:05:12.100
The schematic diagram of the temperature through the capillary is also more detailed here
00:05:12.835 --> 00:05:15.725
You can see there are two refrigerant tubes outside the refrigerator
00:05:15.725 --> 00:05:18.725
A strip of liquid refrigerant from the capillary to the evaporation pan (capillary)
00:05:18.725 --> 00:05:23.800
The other one takes the gaseous refrigerant away from the evaporator (return pipe)
00:05:26.645 --> 00:05:31.500
When you look at your refrigerator, you can only see that there is only one line on the outside
00:05:32.045 --> 00:05:33.795
Why is this so?
00:05:34.385 --> 00:05:37.095
The most important part of a refrigerator is the capillary
00:05:37.095 --> 00:05:40.265
Capillaries require a device that does not look like a spring
00:05:40.265 --> 00:05:43.705
It can become a slender pipeline as shown
00:05:44.695 --> 00:05:49.400
Temperature chart of the new capillary is here
00:05:50.905 --> 00:05:58.000
You only see one line because it's all integrated into the backpipe
00:05:59.585 --> 00:06:02.595
This simple device makes a big difference
00:06:03.655 --> 00:06:06.615
We know that when the refrigerant absorbs heat,
00:06:06.615 --> 00:06:09.285
The temperature itself has not increased
00:06:09.285 --> 00:06:11.195
Only when the temperature increases
00:06:13.080 --> 00:06:18.020
Means if we put the capillary in the return tube
00:06:18.020 --> 00:06:22.260
Will reduce the temperature of the refrigerant in the capillary
00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:28.600
This effectively reduces the temperature inside the capillary
00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:31.700
Created a further improvement in refrigerant efficiency
00:06:32.575 --> 00:06:35.165
On the other hand, the heat absorbed by the return trachea
00:06:35.165 --> 00:06:41.300
Will ensure a successful vaporization of the refrigerant in the return pipe
00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:45.400
This is beneficial for compressors designed to compress only gaseous refrigerants
00:06:47.280 --> 00:06:53.400
The dew tube is designed to remove moisture that affects the operation of the compressor
00:06:55.060 --> 00:07:00.140
Now let ’s take a look at what innovations have changed the refrigerator.
00:07:00.900 --> 00:07:03.220
"Digital Inverter Compressor"
00:07:03.875 --> 00:07:06.705
The compressor is the heart of all refrigerators
00:07:06.705 --> 00:07:09.380
It also brings life to the entire refrigerator system
00:07:10.400 --> 00:07:12.720
You may notice the compressor in the old refrigerator
00:07:12.740 --> 00:07:15.220
Turn it on and off
00:07:15.220 --> 00:07:16.920
This is called "single speed operation"
00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:20.500
When the internal temperature reaches its optimal state
00:07:20.500 --> 00:07:22.280
The compressor will shut itself down
00:07:22.280 --> 00:07:24.300
When the temperature exceeds a certain limit
00:07:24.340 --> 00:07:26.340
The compressor will start on its own
00:07:27.440 --> 00:07:31.760
So you will find that the internal temperature control is not very stable
00:07:31.760 --> 00:07:34.540
Also, sudden speed changes
00:07:34.540 --> 00:07:37.480
Can adversely affect the durability of compressor components
00:07:39.400 --> 00:07:41.580
With digital inverter compressor
00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:45.415
The speed of the compressor can be changed
00:07:45.415 --> 00:07:48.675
Thus achieving smooth and efficient temperature control of the evaporator
00:07:49.180 --> 00:07:53.060
Here the controller converts AC power to DC power
00:07:53.060 --> 00:07:55.180
The controller uses the power and frequency
00:07:55.180 --> 00:07:58.460
Accurately controls the speed of the motor
00:07:59.600 --> 00:08:02.580
Generally most motors using this technology
00:08:02.580 --> 00:08:04.375
Called "DC Brushless Motor"
00:08:04.380 --> 00:08:07.080
Digital inverter compressors than single speed compressors
00:08:07.080 --> 00:08:09.380
Reduced consumption by at least 40%
00:08:10.780 --> 00:08:15.340
