Technical Terminology
•
Refrigerant
Fluids, which are used for refrigeration are called refrigerants. They
have a relatively low boiling point; so low, that the warmth of foods
in the refrigeration appliance can cause them to boil or vaporise.
•
Refrigerant circuit
Sealed circulation system, in which the refrigerant is found. The
refrigerant circuit consists for the most part of an evaporator, a
compressor, a condenser and tubing.
•
Evaporator
The refrigerant is evaporated in the evaporator. This warmth is
withdrawn from the appliance interior, which is thus cooled. Like all
fluids, refrigerants require warmth in order to be evaporated. For this
reason the evaporator is located in the appliance interior.
