basic principle of refrigeration is
00:00:02.960 00:00:02.970 simple just pass a colder liquid
00:00:05.390 00:00:05.400 continuously around the object which is
00:00:07.760 00:00:07.770 to be cooled
00:00:09.610 00:00:09.620 this will take heat out from the object
00:00:12.879 00:00:12.889 the whole refrigeration technology is
00:00:15.890 00:00:15.900 after this how to produce cold liquid
00:00:18.890 00:00:18.900 continuously we will see how this is
00:00:21.769 00:00:21.779 achieved in this video this is what
00:00:26.450 00:00:26.460 inside a refrigerator
00:00:30.180 00:00:30.190 at the heart of the system is a simple
00:00:33.150 00:00:33.160 device called throttling device
00:00:36.830 00:00:36.840 cold liquid is produced with help of
00:00:39.450 00:00:39.460 this phenomenon in this case throttling
00:00:42.780 00:00:42.790 device is a capillary tube for effective
00:00:46.680 00:00:46.690 throttling at Inlet refrigerant should
00:00:49.049 00:00:49.059 be high pressure liquid
00:00:53.650 00:00:53.660 throttling device is an obstruction to
00:00:56.180 00:00:56.190 the flow which causes tremendous
00:00:57.979 00:00:57.989 pressure drop due to drop in pressure
00:01:01.099 00:01:01.109 boiling point of refrigerant comes down
00:01:03.619 00:01:03.629 and it starts evaporating heat required
00:01:07.219 00:01:07.229 for evaporation comes within the
00:01:09.469 00:01:09.479 refrigerant so it's temperature drops
00:01:17.250 00:01:17.260 if you check temperature across
00:01:19.600 00:01:19.610 throttling device you can notice this
00:01:22.090 00:01:22.100 drop
00:01:26.860 00:01:26.870 next phase is simple just pass this cold
00:01:30.560 00:01:30.570 liquid over the body where you have to
00:01:32.540 00:01:32.550 absorb heat
00:01:38.760 00:01:38.770 during heat absorption process
00:01:41.140 00:01:41.150 refrigerant further evaporates and
00:01:43.480 00:01:43.490 transforms into pure vapor so we have
00:01:47.950 00:01:47.960 produced a required refrigeration effect
00:01:50.050 00:01:50.060 if we can take this low-pressure vapor
00:01:53.110 00:01:53.120 refrigerant to state before throttling
00:01:55.270 00:01:55.280 process that is high-pressure liquid
00:01:57.820 00:01:57.830 state we will be able to repeat this
00:02:00.190 00:02:00.200 process so first step let's raise the
00:02:04.270 00:02:04.280 pressure a compressor is introduced for
00:02:09.370 00:02:09.380 this purpose compressor will raise the
00:02:12.970 00:02:12.980 pressure back to its initial value
00:02:18.470 00:02:18.480 but since it is compressing gas along
00:02:21.630 00:02:21.640 with pressure temperature will also
00:02:23.550 00:02:23.560 raise it is unavoidable
00:02:28.140 00:02:28.150 now the refrigerant is high-pressure
00:02:30.910 00:02:30.920 vapor to convert it to liquid state we
00:02:34.059 00:02:34.069 are introducing another heat exchanger
00:02:37.080 00:02:37.090 this heat exchanger is fitted outside
00:02:40.179 00:02:40.189 refrigerator so it will liberate heat to
00:02:43.600 00:02:43.610 the surroundings vapor will get
00:02:45.789 00:02:45.799 convinced to liquid and temperature will
00:02:48.009 00:02:48.019 come down to normal level so the
00:02:51.100 00:02:51.110 refrigerant is back to its initial state
00:02:53.050 00:02:53.060 again high-pressure liquid
00:02:57.820 00:02:57.830 we can repeat this cycle over and over
00:03:00.520 00:03:00.530 for continuous refrigeration this cycle
00:03:04.720 00:03:04.730 is known as vapour compression cycle you
00:03:09.400 00:03:09.410 can note more details of refrigerator
00:03:11.350 00:03:11.360 components here to enhance heat transfer
00:03:15.460 00:03:15.470 both evaporator and condenser are having
00:03:18.070 00:03:18.080 fins attached to it since evaporator is
00:03:21.700 00:03:21.710 cooling the surrounding air it is common
00:03:24.190 00:03:24.200 that water will get condensed over it
00:03:25.990 00:03:26.000 forming frost frequent removal of Frost
00:03:29.320 00:03:29.330 is required to enhance heat transfer
00:03:31.860 00:03:31.870 apart from raising pressure compressor
00:03:34.840 00:03:34.850 also helps maintain flow in the
00:03:36.670 00:03:36.680 refrigerant circuit usually hermetically
00:03:39.820 00:03:39.830 sealed reciprocating type with proper
00:03:42.160 00:03:42.170 sealing is used for this purpose since
00:03:45.310 00:03:45.320 it is compressing gas huge amount of
00:03:47.680 00:03:47.690 input power is required for this
00:03:49.660 00:03:49.670 operation
00:03:52.440 00:03:52.450 a simple energy balance of the system
00:03:55.260 00:03:55.270 yields this relation
00:04:01.050 00:04:01.060 performance of a refrigeration system
00:04:03.340 00:04:03.350 can be defined as follows
00:04:09.100 00:04:09.110 hope you had a good overview of working
00:04:11.630 00:04:11.640 of a refrigerator thank you
