KnowraRefrigeration cycleLinked fromLinked fromThe 11 pages that link to Refrigeration cycle, each with the reason it gives.All 11Broader topic 1Related 6Narrower topic 4Latent heatRelated: Refrigerants absorb latent heat while evaporating and release it while condensing.Joule–Thomson effectNarrower topic: Many vapor-compression systems use a throttling valve, though their cooling also involves evaporation.Latent heat of vaporizationRelated: Refrigerants absorb heat as they vaporize and release heat when they condense.CondenserRelated: Its condenser rejects heat from high-pressure refrigerant vapor as the refrigerant liquefies.HydrofluorocarbonRelated: HFCs absorb and release heat as refrigerants circulate through this cycle.EvaporatorNarrower topic: The evaporator performs the cycle's heat-absorption stage.Thomas Midgley Jr.Narrower topic: Midgley’s CFC refrigerants served as working fluids in vapor-compression refrigeration.VaporizationRelated: Its evaporator absorbs heat as refrigerant vaporizes.Flash evaporationNarrower topic: Many refrigeration systems use throttling followed by partial flashing to cool refrigerant.Major applianceBroader topic: It is the operating principle behind household refrigerators and many freezers.Willis CarrierRelated: The cycle supplied the cooling at the heart of Carrier’s air-treatment systems.
