Refrigerant mass inside an evaporator in a steady or non-steady state.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

This study was undertaken to achieve an experimental determination of the refrigerant mass inside an evaporator of a refrigerating machine operating under steady or non-steady conditions. The mass was measured during the steady regime over a wide range of operating conditions and the mass variations were evaluated during steps of the expansion valve. From the results of the laboratory experiments, a correlation of the refrigerant mass variation is proposed, taking into account the compressor variable-speed and the vaporization temperature. An analysis of the results is presented and a theoretical method for predicting the refrigerant mass in the evaporator is proposed.
