Refrigeration is a process of removal of heat from a substance at a temperature lower than the surrounding with the aid of external work. In a refrigeration system, the rate at which the heat is absorbed in a cycle from the interior space to be cooled is called Refrigerating Effect. Refrigeration
4
* In a refrigerator, a medium called Refrigerant continuously extracts the heat from the refrigerator which is to be kept cool at temperatures less than the atmosphere & finally rejects to it. * Refrigerant acts as a heat exchange medium. * e.g.- Ammonia, Freon, Methyl Chloride, Carbon dioxide, Isobutane.

Unit of Refrigeration & Ice making Capacity The capacity of a refrigeration system is expressed in tons of refrigeration which is the unit of refrigeration. A ton of refrigeration is the quantity of heat absorbed in order to form one ton of ice in 24 hours when the initial temperature of water is 0°c. 1 Ton of Refrigeration = 210 kJ/min = 3.5kW Ice making capacity is the capacity of the refrigerating system to make ice beginning from water to solid. S.I. unit of ice making capacity is kg/hr.
6
Coefficient of Performance The coefficient of performance(briefly written as C.O.P.) is the ratio of desired effect to the work input. Mathematically, (C.O.P.) refrigerator = Desired effect = Q 2____ Work Input Q 1 -Q 2

Advantages Very mature technology. It has very less running cost. It has smaller size for the given capacity of refrigeration. It can be employed over a large range of temperatures. The C.O.P. is very high. Disadvantages Many systems still use HCFC refrigerants, which contribute to depletion of ozone layer. Initial cost is high. The prevention of leakage of refrigerant is the major problem in vapour compression refrigeration. 16
