Low Charge Ammonia systems designed as Direct Expansion
This work examines and proposes to study further those working fluids of refrigeration machines that can go into the liquid phase in a low–speed compressor unit because of their characteristics and operating parameters in the refrigeration machine. Further experimental confirmation of this will enable partial or complete elimination of the condenser unit in the refrigeration machine.
