REFRIGERATORS
AND HEAT PUMPS
The transfer of heat from a low-temperature
region to a high-temperature one requires
special devices called refrigerators.
Refrigerators and heat pumps are essentially
the same devices; they differ in their
objectives only.

Liquefaction of Gases
Many important scientific and engineering processes at cryogenic temperatures (below
about 100C) depend on liquefied gases including the separation of oxygen and nitrogen
from air, preparation of liquid propellants for rockets, the study of material properties at low
temperatures, and the study of superconductivity.

Without regeneration, the lowest turbine inlet temperature is T0, the temperature of
the surroundings or any other cooling medium.
With regeneration, the high-pressure gas is further cooled to T4 before expanding in
the turbine.
Lowering the turbine inlet temperature automatically lowers the turbine exit
temperature, which is the minimum temperature in the cycle.
