REFRIGERATION COMPRESSORS
MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS
(MCQ) WITH ANSWERS
Compressors in refrigeration is the heart of
the system. This increases the temperature
and pressure of the refrigerant. It enables
to loose heat to the surroundings. Basis of
compressor selection are pressure rise and
volume handled.
