refrigeration technology

Refrigeration technology works by removing heat from an enclosed space to lower its temperature, typically for preservation or comfort. It uses a cycle involving a refrigerant fluid that absorbs heat as it evaporates, then releases that heat outside as it condenses back into a liquid. The key components include a compressor, condenser, expansion valve, and evaporator. The compressor pressurizes the refrigerant, which then cools while passing through the evaporator inside the space. As it absorbs heat, the refrigerant evaporates, cooling the interior. The cycle repeats, keeping the environment at a desired, stable temperature.
