In the paper, the design scheme of the new cold store is proposed firstly, with the consideration of the latest technology application and the convenience and maneuverability of practical teaching. Then the refrigeration system is designed based on the calculation of the heat load of the cold store. The suited components such as compressor, evaporator, condenser and expansion valve are selected and the electrical system is designed. After that the whole unit is installed and adjusted to make sure that the installation is propitious to improve the system performance and convenient for training. Finally the thermal performance of the new cold store system is tested and compared with the old system test. The result shows that the matching of the new refrigeration system is reasonable and the new cold store is up to the mustard. With the help of training on the cold store, the students will meet the essential requirements of STCW 78/95 convention on application and management of the marine cold store.

This experimental investigation exemplifies the design and testing of diffuser at compressor inlet and nozzle at condenser outlet in vapour compression refrigeration system with the help of R134a refrigerant. The diffuser with divergence angle of 12°,14° and the nozzle with convergent angle 12°,14° are designed for same inlet and outlet diameters. Initially diffusers are tested at compressor inlet diffuser is used with inlet diameter equal to exit tube diameter of evaporator and outlet tube diameter is equal to suction tube diameter of the compressor. Diffuser helps to increases the pressure of the refrigerant before entering the compressor it will be helps to reduces the compression work and achieve higher performance of the vapour compression refrigeration system. Then nozzles are testing at condenser outlet, whereas nozzle inlet diameter equal to discharging tube diameter of condenser and outlet diameter equal to inlet diameter of expansion valve. Additional pressure drop in the nozzle helped to achieve higher performance of the vapour compression refrigeration system. The system is analyzes using the first and second laws of thermodynamics, to determine the refrigerating effect, the compressor work input, coefficient of performance (COP).

Abstract A small refrigeration system for cooling of computer system components is evaluated. A thermodynamic model describing the performance of the cycle along with a computer simulation program is developed to evaluate its performance. The refrigeration system makes use of a miniature reciprocating vapor compression compressor. Due to space limitations in some high performance computer servers, a miniature refrigeration system composed of a compressor, capillary tube, a compact condenser, and a cold-plate evaporator heat exchanger are used. Mathematical multi-zone formulation for modeling thermal-hydraulic performance of heat exchanger for the condenser and evaporator are presented. The throttling device is a capillary tube and there is presented a mathematical formulation for predicting refrigerant mass flow rate through the throttling device. A physically based efficiency formulation for simulating the performance of the miniature compressor is used. An efficient iterative numerical scheme with allowance for utilization of various refrigerants is developed to solve the governing system of equations. Using the simulation program, the effects of parameters such as the choice of working refrigerant, evaporating and condensing temperatures on system components and overall efficiency of system are studied. In addition, a RAS (reliability, availability and serviceability) discussion of the proposed CPU-cooling refrigeration solution is presented. The results of analysis show that the new technology not only overcomes many shortcomings of the traditional fan-cooled systems, but also has the capacity of increasing the cooling system’s coefficient of performance.
