In a refrigeration system, why is receiver installed in the liquid line? Correct Answer To collect the refrigerant

Explanation:

Receiver: 

  • Cylinder connected to the condenser outlet for storage of liquid refrigerant in the system.
  • Basically, a storage vessel designed to hold excess refrigerant, not in circulation.

​Evaporation Stage of refrigeration :

  •  A low-pressure liquid refrigerant in the evaporator absorbs heat from its surrounding environment, usually air, water, or some other liquid, and gets evaporated into gas. T
  • The refrigerant is slightly superheated at the outlet of the evaporator.

Compression of the refrigerant :

  •  The superheated vapor from the evaporator enters the compressor where its pressure is increased due to compression.
  • The temperature also typically increases, since a part of the energy put into the compression process is transferred to the refrigerant.

Condensation of pressurized refrigerant

  • The pressurized and superheated gas from the compressor outlet is sent to a condenser. 

Throttling Process 

  •  High-pressure liquid refrigerant is expanded from high pressure to lower pressure isenthalpically , due to which temperature of refrigerant drops and goes to the evaporator
