Summary

INVESTIGATIONS OF ENERGY LOSS IN THE CYCLIC OPERATION OF A REFRIGERATOR-FREEZER WERE MADE. THELOSS CONSISTS OF 3 PARTS: HOT REFRIGERANT GAS INLET LOSS, COOLING LAG LOSS, AND EVAPORATOR SUPERHEAT LOSS. HOT REFRIGERANT GAS INLET LOSS OCCURRED WHEN THE HIGH TEMPERATURE GAS FROM THE CONDENSER FLOWED INTO THE EVAPORATOR. THE LOSSES WERE FROM 7.6 TO 12.3% FOR A RECIPROCATING COMPRESSOR AND 11.9 TO 17.4% FOR A ROTARY COMPRESSOR, BUT THEY CAN BE REDUCED BY RESTRICTING THE HOT GAS FLOW TO THE EVAPORATOR. ELECTRICAL CONSUMPTION IS ALSO REDUCED BY 10 AND 15%, IN THE CASE OF BOTH RECIPROCATING AND OF ROTARY COMPRESSORS.
