The document discusses evaporators, which are a key component in refrigeration systems. It provides three main points:
1. Evaporators are where the refrigerant absorbs heat from the substance being cooled as it changes phase from a liquid to a vapor. This cools the substance.
2. Evaporators come in different types depending on their design and cooling needs, such as dry expansion, flooded, plate, and finned coil evaporators.
3. Key factors that affect evaporator design and performance include heat transfer rate, material selection based on refrigerant, and refrigerant velocity for optimal heat transfer and pressure.

FUNCTIONS EVAPORATOR is one of the component in a Refrigeration system
in which the process of heat removal from the substance to be
cooled(refrigerated) is done.
The Liquid refrigerant is vaporised inside the evaporator.
While the refrigerant is changing the phase from Liquid to vapor in
the evaporator, it absorb heat from the space/ substance kept in front of the them.
Evaporator is kept between the Expansion valve and the
Compressor. 11/22/2014 DR.A.M.SURENDRA KUMAR 2 Evaporator is the most required part of the Refrigeration system. The refrigerant from the Expansion valve comes into the Evaporator below the temperature required to be maintained in the evaporator and carries the heat from the evaporator. The Evaporator is known as Cooler or Freezer. 1. HEAT TRANSFER The heat carried away by the refrigerant from air or any other substance mainly by convection. The heat transfer capacity of the Evaporator is given by
Q = U A ( Tf – Ts ) kW where U = Overall heat transfer coefficient A = area of the evaporator. Tf = temperature of the fluid /substance passing through the evaporator Ts = Saturation temperature of the refrigerant at evaporator pressure. ( Tf – Ts ) = Temperature difference causing the flow Too high temp. difference causes excessive dehydration of the products to be cooled Too low temp. difference ( below 80C) causes slime on products like meat & fish
used for the construction. Choice of material depends upon the refrigerant used in the system. Brass & Copper used for all refrigerants except ammonia. Freons should not be used with Aluminum 3.VELOCITY
With increase in velocity of the refrigerant, the heat
transfer coefficient also increases but increased velocity causes greater pressure loss.
There are recommended velocities for different
refrigerants which give high heat transfer rates with allowable pressure loss. 8 11/22/2014 DR.A.M.SURENDRA KUMAR 9 11/22/2014 DR.A.M.SURENDRA KUMAR DR.A.M.SURENDRA KUMAR 10 11/22/2014 CLASSIFICATIONS Evaporators are manufactured in different shapes, types and design to suit a diverse nature of cooling requirements.
