Hi everyone, and welcome to my video blog. Today, I'm going to be talking about how a fridge works.
A fridge is a device used to keep food fresh and cold. It does this by transferring heat from inside the fridge to outside. This is why you might notice that the back of your fridge feels warm.
There are five main components that make up a fridge:
The compressor is the heart of the fridge. It circulates a refrigerant throughout the system. The refrigerant is a special type of gas that absorbs heat when it vaporizes.
The condenser is located on the back of the fridge. It's where the refrigerant releases the heat that it absorbed.
The evaporator is located inside the fridge. It's where the refrigerant absorbs heat from the air inside the fridge.
The capillary tube is a thin tube that connects the condenser and the evaporator. It helps to regulate the flow of refrigerant.
The thermostat controls the temperature inside the fridge. It does this by turning the compressor on and off.
So, how does all of this work together?
The compressor circulates the refrigerant throughout the system. The refrigerant starts out as a liquid in the condenser. As it flows through the condenser, it releases heat and turns into a gas. The gas then flows through the capillary tube and into the evaporator.
In the evaporator, the refrigerant absorbs heat from the air inside the fridge. As it absorbs heat, it turns back into a liquid. The liquid refrigerant then flows back to the compressor, where the cycle starts all over again.
This process of evaporation and condensation is what keeps your food fresh and cold.
