  2. Subcooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subcooling

    Allowing the subcooling process to occur outside the condenser (as with an internal heat exchanger) is a method of using all of the condensing device's heat exchanging capacity. A huge portion of refrigeration systems use part of the condenser for subcooling which, though very effective and simple, may be considered a diminishing factor in the ...

  3. Economizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economizer

    For example, a heat exchanger that preheats cold water needed for another process or human use, may take heat from the liquid line, effectively subcooling it and increasing the system's capacity. [6] Recently, machines exclusively designed for this purpose have been developed.

  4. Heat exchanger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_exchanger

    Tubular heat exchanger Partial view into inlet plenum of shell and tube heat exchanger of a refrigerant based chiller for providing air-conditioning to a building. A heat exchanger is a system used to transfer heat between a source and a working fluid. Heat exchangers are used in both cooling and heating processes. [1]

  5. Flash-gas (refrigeration) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash-gas_(refrigeration)

    The incorporation of a subcooling stage after the receiver reduces even more the chances to observe flash gas. [5] This subcooling may be done in a reserved portion of the main condenser, or separately with a heat exchanger. Some receivers may incorporate an internal heat exchanger that draws heat form the subcooled liquid to superheat the gas ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_HVAC_terms

    heat exchanger A heat exchanger is the part of the system that transfers heat from the hot parts of the machine or a system to the cold parts of the machine or system. heat gain heat load heat loss Terms for the amount of cooling (heat gain) or heating (heat loss) needed to maintain desired temperatures and humidifies in controlled air.

  7. Condenser (heat transfer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condenser_(heat_transfer)

    In systems involving heat transfer, a condenser is a heat exchanger used to condense a gaseous substance into a liquid state through cooling. In doing so, the latent heat is released by the substance and transferred to the surrounding environment. Condensers are used for efficient heat rejection in many industrial systems.

    Meanwhile, a trip to Aspen, Colorado, transformed my definition of luxury. In Paris and New York, five-star hotels and Michelin-star restaurants coexist alongside $1 pizza and cheap crepe carts.

  9. Coefficient of performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_performance

    Less work is required to move heat than for conversion into heat, and because of this, heat pumps, air conditioners and refrigeration systems can have a coefficient of performance greater than one. The COP is highly dependent on operating conditions, especially absolute temperature and relative temperature between sink and system, and is often ...
