We'll discuss the refrigeration cycle using the cycle diagram below. Component #1 is the compressor. It takes refrigerant vapor in from the low pressure side of the circuit, and discharges it at a ...

When troubleshooting a refrigeration system, it is important to understand how the refrigeration cycle accomplishes the goal of removing heat from a room and rejecting the heat absorbed by the ...
