★ LPG is stored under high pressure (gas
pressure is approx 80-100psi) in LPG cylinder,
the gas flows through the pipe and reaches the
capillary tube.
★As the capillary tube maintains the pressure
below 1psi whereas enthalpy remains constant.
★In evaporator LPG is converted into the vapour
under low pressure.After passing through low
pressure and temperature LPG vapour absorbs
heat from the chamber system.Thus chamber
cools down and we can achieve cooling effect in
refrigerator.
Literature review.
★A.Baskaran & P.Koshy Mathews A Performance
Comparison of Vapour Compression Refrigeration System
Using Eco Friendly Refrigerants of Low Global Warming
Potential. R600a performance have a slightly higher than
coefficient(COP) R134a for the condensation temperature of
50 C⁰ and evaporating temperatures ranging between -
30C⁰and10⁰C.Hence, The coefficient performance (COP) of
this mixture was up to 5.7% higher.
★B.O.Bolaji Have Experimental study of R152a/R32 to
replace R134a in a domestic refrigerator and find out that
COP obtained by R152a is 4.7%higher than that of R134a.
COP of R32is 8.5% lower than that of R134a and propane is
an attractive and environmentally friendly alternative to
CFCs used currently.
★R.W.James & J.F.Missenden, have use of propane in
domestic refrigerators and conclude that he implications
of using propane in domestic refrigerators are examined
in relation consumption, compressor costs, availability,
to energy lubrication, environmental factors and safety
propane is an attractive and environmentally friendly
alternative to CFCs used currently
