Enhancement of COP by using Liquid Line-Suction Line Heat Exchanger at Various Lengths with Refrigerant R-134a

Abstract

Improvement of performance of system is very much important for higher refrigerating effect or reduced power consumption for same refrigerating effect. By sub-cooling using heat exchanger at condenser inlet refrigerating effect increases and power consumption or work input decreases. The temperature of the vapor refrigerant coming out from the evaporator is less than the temperature of the liquid coming out from the condenser. Before the expansion process, heat is transferred from the liquid line to the suction line. As a consequence this in turn reduces the refrigerant quality at the inlet of the evaporator and therefore increases the refrigerating capacity. The main objective of this project is to evaluate the performance of refrigerator with liquid line suction line heat exchanger for different lengths of heat exchanger by using R134a as refrigerant and compare with different lengths of liquid line- suction line heat exchanger. And thus COP of VCR system improved which results in reduced consumption of energy.
