UNIT V: REFRIGERATION AND AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
PART A- (2 Mark Questions)

1. Define refrigeration.
It is a science of providing and maintaining the temperature below that of the surrounding temperature.

2. Define Ton of Refrigeration

Ton of refrigeration is defined as the quantity of heat to be extracted to produce one ton of ice at 0o C, within
24 hours when the initial condition of water is also at 0 oC. In SI units 1 TR is equivalent to 210 kJ/in or 3.5
kW.

3. Define Coefficient of Performance (COP).

Coefficient of performance is defined as the ratio between the quantities of heat extracted to Work done by the
system.

4. What are the various applications of refrigeration? (i)Used in water coolers for supplying cold water.
(ii)For preservation of food, vegetables, milk, ice cream etc., refrigeration system is used. (iii) For
preservation of perishables like fish, mutton, chicken etc.

5. What are the various properties of refrigerants?

(i)Low boiling point, low freezing point, high latent heat of evaporation.
Low specific heat and low viscosity.
Refrigerants should be easy to liquefy.
Chemical stability Nonflammable.

6. Differentiate between vapour compression refrigeration and vapour absorption refrigeration system.
