  2. Inverter compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverter_compressor

    In air conditioning, an inverter compressor is a compressor that is operated with an inverter. In the hermetic type, it can either be a scroll or reciprocating compressor . This type of compressor uses a drive to control the compressor motor speed to modulate cooling capacity.

  3. Auto-defrost - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auto-defrost

    Inside the freezer, air is circulated by means of one or more fans. In a typical design cold air from the freezer compartment is ducted to the fresh food compartment and circulated back into the freezer compartment. Air circulation helps sublimate any ice or frost that may form on frozen items in the freezer compartment. While defrosting, this ...

  4. Defrosting (refrigeration) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defrosting_(refrigeration)

    In refrigerators, defrosting (or thawing) is the removal of frost and ice. A defrosting procedure is generally performed periodically on refrigerators and freezers to maintain their operating efficiency. Over time, as the door is opened and closed, letting in new air, water vapour from the air condenses on the cooling elements within the cabinet.

  5. Refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refrigerator

    For instance, an inverter refrigerator might use less energy during the winters than it does during the summers. This is because the compressor works for a shorter time than it does during the summers. Further, newer models of inverter compressor refrigerators take into account various external and internal conditions to adjust the compressor ...

  6. Heat pump and refrigeration cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_pump_and...

    An air conditioner requires work to cool a living space, moving heat from the interior being cooled (the heat source) to the outdoors (the heat sink). Similarly, a refrigerator moves heat from inside the cold icebox (the heat source) to the warmer room-temperature air of the kitchen (the heat sink).

  7. Refrigeration - Wikipedia

    Refrigeration has thus rapidly evolved in the past century, from ice harvesting to temperature-controlled rail cars, refrigerator trucks, and ubiquitous refrigerators and freezers in both stores and homes in many countries. The introduction of refrigerated rail cars contributed to the settlement of areas that were not on earlier main transport ...

  8. Vapor-compression refrigeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor-compression...

    A representative pressure–volume diagram for a refrigeration cycle. Vapour-compression refrigeration or vapor-compression refrigeration system (VCRS), [1] in which the refrigerant undergoes phase changes, is one of the many refrigeration cycles and is the most widely used method for air conditioning of buildings and automobiles.

  9. Inverterization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverterization

    The basic work of an inverter within a VSD is simple. A microcontroller integrated with the inverter manages the speed of a motor according to demands. For example, in a refrigerator data such as temperature, humidity and motor speed are gathered through sensors to keep the motor running efficiently.
