Refrigeration

Refrigeration systems are meant to keep adequate temperatures in enclosed spaces so that refrigerated goods stay properly chilled, and implicitly, fresh for longer periods of time and safe for consumption. In commercial and industrial applications, refrigeration processes remove heat from walk-in freezers, reach-in coolers, refrigerated display cases, industrial ice machines, and other spaces, without controlling the humidity. 

In order to keep food fresh, refrigerators maintain a low temperature, which is often below the ambient temperature, to prevent or slow down the reproduction of harmful bacteria. To keep the temperature at the required level, a refrigerator uses specific components, such as a compressor, condenser, evaporator, capillary tube, and thermostat. The compressor, condenser, and evaporator work together to change the state of the refrigerant circulating inside them from vapor to liquid and then back, from liquid to vapor. This process allows the refrigerator to absorb and transport heat away from enclosed spaces, producing the desired cooling effect.
