1. OBJECTIVE:
To study vapour absorption Refrigeration system.
2. AIM:
To determine COP of the system.
3. INTRODUCTION:
ABSORBER:
The main function of Absorber is the absorption of the refrigerant vapour by its
weak or poor solution in a suitable absorbent or adsorbent, forming a strong or
rich solution.
CONDENSER:
Condenses the vapour refrigerant into the liquid by condenser fan and passes it
into the receiver tank for recirculation.
EVAPORATOR:
Evaporates the liquid refrigerant by absorbing the heat into vapour refrigerant
and sends back to next run.
4. THEORY:
The flow of fluids in the system has been shown in the diagram with different shadings
and the index of these shadings also indicated in diagram.
1. Vertical boiler in which an aqua solution of ammonia can range itself from
distilled water at the bottom of the boiler to strong ammonia vapour at the
surface of liquid.
2. A water separator which is provided to remove water vapour so that they should
not enter the condenser, get condensed there and pass on to evaporator where
chocking might occur due to its freezing. The water vapour is formed in the
boiler as some of the water may evaporate on application of heat to the boiler.
The separator is a jacket with liquid ammonia at pressure of about 14 bar gauge
for which the saturation temperature is about 40 ºC
3. The dehydrate ammonia gas gets condensed to liquid in the condenser and
gravitates to ‘U’ tube which acts as seal for a gas to enter the evaporator, or any
gas passing from evaporator to condenser.
