Description
This courses is intended to provide you with the basic physics concepts required to learn and understand the development and operation of a simple refrigeration cycle. You will learn the "WHY" about creating artificial refrigeration, and the "HOW" to do it, and finally "HOW" to analyse and size a basic system. The fundamental concept and definition of temperature will be presented, followed by the study and measurement of Heat. Notion of change of states will be addressed as well as the various modes of heat transfer. Pressures and temperatures are some of the key parameters in Refrigeration. You will learn about them in a topic about static of gases. At this point you could be able to understand the effect of pressure during change of state, and the creation of artificial refrigeration.The enthalpy diagram will be covered so you learn, first how to read it and use it to analyse the operation of refrigeration cycle.  The basic calculations that result from the diagram will be discussed. Then, through a case study, you will learn how to applied them.We can't wait to start studying with you!
