TRG-TRC005-EN

A type of finned-tube evaporator arrangement that splits the coil 

into parallel air paths.

The heat transfer surface inside a cooling tower.

A type of evaporator where refrigerant flows through 

the tubes and air blows across the tubes and fins.

The process of liquid refrigerant being vaporized by a sudden reduction 

of pressure.

A device installed at the discharge of the compressor to 

reduce noise and vibration associated with reciprocating compressors.

A type of finned-tube evaporator arrangement that splits the coil 

by alternating the tubes fed in each row between two distributors.

A device installed in the liquid line to

 

remove moisture 

(water) and foreign matter, introduced during the installation process, from the 
refrigeration system.

See sight glass, moisture indicating.

A type of expansion device that uses a fixed plate with holes 

drilled in it to reduce the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant.

A graphical representation of the saturated 

properties of a refrigerant, plotting refrigerant pressure versus enthalpy.

A control sequence used in a refrigeration system to pump 

the refrigerant from the low-pressure side of the system to the high-pressure 
side of the system.

The amount of heat that each pound [kg] of liquid 

refrigerant will absorb when it evaporates.

A type of finned-tube evaporator arrangement that splits the coil by 

placing the independently-controlled coil sections in series in the airstream.

A type of evaporator where refrigerant flows 

through the tubes and water fills the surrounding shell.

Devices used to isolate one part of the refrigeration system from 

the rest.

A device installed in the liquid line, upstream 

of the expansion valve, used to detect moisture in the system and determine if 
the liquid refrigerant has flashed into vapor before entering the expansion 
valve.

A device used to stop the flow of refrigerant within the 

refrigeration system.
