Q

Which of the listed statements is correct concerning refrigeration systems?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Basic components and functions of a mechanical refrigeration system (compressor, condenser, receiver, expansion valve, evaporator) • Definition of a "ton of refrigeration" in BTU per hour or per day • Purpose of dehydrators and of a liquid receiver in a refrigeration plant

💭 Think About

• Which component in a refrigeration system actually controls the temperature inside the refrigerated space, and how does it do that? • How is a "ton of refrigeration" normally defined in BTU per HOUR, and how would you convert that to a per-DAY value? • What is the primary job of the liquid receiver, and is it normally used to handle non‑condensable gases or something else?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which device is responsible for metering liquid refrigerant into the evaporator in response to temperature changes. • Confirm the standard value of one ton of refrigeration in BTU/hr and then multiply by 24 to compare to the per‑day figure given. • Recall that dehydrators/driers deal with moisture in the refrigerant and receivers deal with storage/phase control, not typically with non‑condensable gases.
