🔍 Key Concepts

• Basic refrigeration cycle: where heat is absorbed vs. where heat is rejected • What happens to the refrigerant when it boils/vaporizes • Difference between condenser and the low‑temperature heat‑absorbing coil

💭 Think About

• Which part of the system is located where you want to REMOVE heat (for example, inside a cold room, box, or cooling coil)? • When a liquid refrigerant changes to a vapor, does it absorb heat or reject heat? Which component is designed for that phase change? • Which component instead changes hot vapor back to liquid by rejecting heat to seawater or air?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify the component whose main job is heat absorption at low temperature, not heat rejection. • Match each choice to the phase change it is associated with: vapor to liquid vs. liquid to vapor. • Consider where each component is usually located: near the cooled space, or near the heat sink (seawater/air)?
