CALCULATION OF COEFFICIENT OF PERFORMANCE IN VAPOUR COMPRESSION REFRIGERATION SYSTEM BY USING R600 REFRIGERANT

This Synopsis deals with experimental investigation by using R600 refrigerant and to calculate the value of COP. We have all experienced a sensation of heat when passing behind a functioning refrigerator or air conditioner. The cause of this phenomenon is the air condenser, a heat exchanger made up of tubes with air fins attached to the back of the device. This is where the cooling fluid condenses by releasing its heat into the ambient air. To limit the system's energy consumption, humidification processes were initiated. The principle consists of saturating the ambient air in contact with the exchanger by projecting fine water droplets. Humidification of the air intensifies the heat exchange on the air side and reduces the cooling fluid's condensation temperature. This lowers the compression rate in the cooling cycle and improves the compressor's consumption of electrical power
