Foreign vapors left in a refrigeration system can contaminate the refrigerant and cause a decrease in system efficiency, potentially leading to system malfunctions or failures. It can also cause chemical reactions or create harmful byproducts that may be harmful to the system components or environmental health. Proper purging is essential to maintain the system's performance and longevity.

Is meat rots of it not refrigerated a chemical property?

No, meat rotting when not refrigerated is a biological process, not a chemical property. When meat is left at room temperature, bacteria break down the proteins and lipids in the meat, leading to its decomposition. Refrigeration slows down this process by inhibiting bacterial growth.


What is the purpose of an evaporator?

An evaporator in a refrigeration system works by passing warm air over it's coils. The warmth of the air heats the liquid refrigerant inside, causing it to boil into gas. At the same time, the air looses it's heat and turns cold. It is heated by the surrounding and is passed through again and again until the surrounding is the same temperature as the liquid refrigerant. Then, the system shuts off, or cycles back, depending on the metering device.


Which Ammonia is A good grade Refrigerant?

There are not different "types" of ammonia. Ammonia is a gas and when you buy ammonia usually it is absorbed in water at different strengths. You may see ammonia sold as ".88" liquid for instance. The ammonia is used in conjunction with water and hydrogen in an ammonia cycle refrigeration plant. The ammonia/hydrogen is released into the evaporator (cold side) of the fridge. The ammonia boils off to a gas (boiling point of ammonia, in open atmosphere, is -33 oC -the pressure in system keeps it liquid). The Hydrogen/ammonia gasses leave the evaporator and are separated by absorbing the ammonia in water. The hydrogen rises back to the top of the system and the ammonia solution falls to the bottom. The only thing left to do is separate the ammonia and water by heating it (distillation) so that the cycle can be repeated. The purpose of the hydrogen the system is to control the boiling point (vapour pressure) of the ammonia.


How much refrigerant vapor left in 350 ton chiller at 0 degrees?

The amount of refrigerant vapor left in a 350 ton chiller at 0 degrees would depend on the specific system design, operating conditions, and refrigerant type used. A professional HVAC technician would need to assess the system to determine the exact amount of refrigerant vapor remaining.


How does a system at equilibrium respond to the addition of more product?

Le Chatelier's Principle states that a system at equilibrium will shift to counteract the change imposed on it. If more product is added, the system will shift in the direction that consumes the additional product to restore equilibrium.

How the respiratory system is link to the circulatory system?

the circulatory and respiratory system are linked because when the heart gets oxegyn from the lungs, the arteries in the left of right atrium of the heart take that blood and give it to all the other cells in your body, pick up carbon dioxide as they go along, and that what you breathe out, then when you breathe in, the same cycle repeats over again
