Design and performance evaluation of reciprocating refrigeration systems.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

A finite-time thermodynamic model which simulates the working of an actual vapour-compression system is also developed. The model is used to study the performance of a variable-speed refrigeration system in which the evaporator capacity is varied by changing the mass-flow rate of the refrigerant, while keeping the inlet chilled-water temperature as constant. The model is also used for predicting an optimum distribution of heat-exchanger areas between the evaporator and condenser for a given total heat exchanger area. In addition, the effect of subcooling and superheating on the system performance is also investigated.
