A. AIR-COOLED CONDENSERS
These are used only in small capacity machine such as refrigerators and small water cooler, which is also employed in this project.
In air-cooled condensers, heat is removed by air using either natural or forced circulation, the condenser are either made up of steel, copper or aluminum tubing provided with fins to improve air- side heat transfer [Aithouse, A. D. (1968)].
B. WATER-COOLED CONDENSER
This provides a lower condensing pressure than the air-cooled condensate the water-cooled condenser using water [Althouse, A. D. (1968)].
C. EVAPORATIVE CONDENSER
This condenser combines the frictions of a condenser and a cooling tower. It is commonly used in large ammonia plants as they are found to be cheaper [Althouse, A. D. (1968)].
4.3 THE EVAPORATOR
The evaporator is a component of the refrigeration system in which heat is removed from air, water or any other body by the evaporating refrigerants, since this heat must be absorbed by the evaporator. The efficiency of the system depends on the design and operation of the evaporator.
Evaporator are constructed with materials that can withstand high heat conduction and also having sufficient strength to withstand any pressure or partial vacuum with which it may be subjected to in the system[Althouse, AD(1 968)]

ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]ABSTRACTThis project is on the design and fabrication of deep freezer for the preservation of items/products and making the items to cool. The project is able to develop a simple efficient economical and environmental friendly refrigeration system (A freezer) towards better technological advancement in Nigeria. This project modifies the existing refrigeration system with the use of R-600a which is ozone friendly, and non-contaminant like previous refrigerant of the hydrofluoric-carbon, HFC and C ...

CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]CHAPTER TWO2.0 LITERATURE REVIEWRefrigeration is branch of engineering that is concerned with the science of producing and maintaining temperature below that of the surrounding atmosphere [Raymond, C.G. (1973)]. It also the process of removing heat from the substance.Before the advent of mechanical refrigeration, water was kept cool by storing in semi-porous pots, so that the water could seep through and evaporate. The evaporation carried away heat and cooled the water [Raymond, C.G. (1 97 ... Continue reading---
CHAPTER THREE - [ Total Page(s): 5 ]3.3.4 CAPILLARY TUBEThis device operate on the principle that a given weight of refrigerant liquid will pass through a capillary more readily than the same weight of gas will do at the same pressure. Immediately the condensed refrigerant enters the capillary tube, the mass flow of this refrigerant will be reduced them by giving more room for cooling time.ADVANTAGE OF THE TYPES OF CAPILLARY TUBE USED FOR THIS PROJECT LIES INa. Its simplicityb. Ease of being welded to the suction for heat exchangi ... Continue reading---
