Abstract

Supply of continuous electricity is still not available in several areas of the country and the world and refrigerator consuming more electricity. In this project we eliminate the problem of electricity. In this project using LPG as refrigerant we have design and analyze refrigerator. LPG is stored in cylinder at high pressure. As this pressurized LPG is passed through the capillary tube of small internal diameter, the pressure of LPG is decreased due to expansion and phase change of LPG occurs in an isenthalpic process. Due to phase change from liquid to gas latent heat of evaporation is gained by the liquid refrigerant and the temperature decreased. In this way LPG can produce refrigerating effect in the surrounding. After complete investigation we observed that the COP of LPG Refrigerator is higher than domestic Refrigerator.
