REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS

A refrigeration system is a device to produce the refrigeration effect. Some of the popular refrigeration systems are:

1. Ice refrigeration-used in hotels for keeping the drinks cold.
2. Evaporative refrigeration-desert bag, artificial snow.
3. Air refrigeration-aircrafts.
4. Gas throttling refrigeration-liquefaction of gases, like air, nitrogen and oxygen.
5. Vapour compression refrigeration-domestic refrigerator.
6. Vapour absorption refrigeration-ice making using aqua ammonia or water plus lithium bromide as the absorbent.
7. Steam jet refrigeration-comfort cooling in air-conditioning installations or in industrial processes.
8. Liquid gases refrigeration-transportation vehicles for perishable items.
9. Dry ice (solid CO₂) refrigeration-transportation of perishable items.
