The Complex Process Of a Fridge

Gas is drawn at low pressure and low temperature through a line. The gas is compressed using electricity to a higher pressure and its temperature rises (just like a bicycle pumpwhich gets warmer when you are pumping up a tyre). It is then transferred to a condenser where the heat is removed and the gas begins to condense into a liquid. The heat is released viacooling fins on the back of the fridge unit. The liquid then goes through an expansion device where its pressure is suddenly lowered, it expands and some of the liquid turns veryquickly into a vapour. This change of state has a cooling effect. Now the cold vapour and liquid are able to cool the air in the cabinet of the refrigirator through an evaporator. Theliquid absorbs the warmth from the air inside the Refrigirator and turns back into a low temperature gas, at low pressure. It now starts its journey again through the compressor.Gas is drawn at low pressure and low temperature through a line.
