The purpose of a condenser in a refrigeration system is

The purpose of a condenser in a refrigeration system is




a) to remove the sensible heat from the refrigerant
b) to remove the latent heat from the refrigerant
c) to cool the liquid refrigerant
d) to vaporize the liquid refrigerant
e) to reduce the pressure in the evaporator





Answer: B

Which of the following statements about the shell and tube evaporator type is false?

Which of the following statements about the shell and tube evaporator type is false?




a) It is also known as a chiller.
b) This type of evaporator cools mainly liquids.
c) The refrigerant is circulating in the shell in the flooded operation.
d) Refrigerant vapour is drawn out of the evaporator by the compressor.
e) The liquid to be cooled circulates through the tubes in the direct-expansion operation.







Answer: E

The amount of water used in the evaporative condenser of a refrigeration plant is only a small percentage of that used in a water condenser of the same capacity, because

The amount of water used in the evaporative condenser of a refrigeration plant is only a small percentage of that used in a water condenser of the same capacity, because



a. Evaporating condensers also use air to cool the refrigerant
b. The evaporating condensers spray refrigerated water onto condensing coil
c. The cooling water evaporates, removing far more heat per kilogram of system coolant
d. Of water conservation methods
e. Of the scarcity of water in locations that use evaporative condensers






Answer: C
