Experimental Investigation of Sub Cooling Effect on Simple Vapour Compression System by Domestic Refrigerator

Brijesh H Patel, Lalit S Patel

Abstract :

Refrigerator has become an essential part of a house hold. The primary function of refrigerator is to provide food storage space maintained at low temperature for the preservation of food & secondary function is to manufacture of ice. Performance of this system becomes main issue and many researches are still ongoing to evaluate and improve efficiency of the system. This paper gives an understanding of basic vapour–compression refrigeration system & performance of refrigeration system can be determined using refrigerator test rig. In domestic refrigerator have been conducted sub cooling parameter take in order to analyze performance of the refrigerator. Using of thermoelectric module in domestic refrigerator for sub cooling, the effect on COP and refrigerating effect is investigated. The performance of the refrigerator test rig analyze by the using the actual pressure–enthalpy diagram of actual refrigeration cycle and by using the equation.
