Refrigerator Block Diagram with Explanation
We have covered the block diagram and functioning concept of refrigerator or fridge -
a. Thermostat: The thermostat is a temperature-sensitive control that monitors the refrigerator's internal temperature. When the temperature within the refrigerator exceeds the predetermined limit, the thermostat activates the compressor. Conversely, after the desired temperature is reached, the compressor is shut off to prevent overcooling. This automatic on-off control ensures a consistent cooling environment while reducing energy use. It is vital to regulate the entire cooling cycle.
b. Compressor: The compressor serves as the refrigeration system's pump. It converts low-pressure refrigerant vapor from the evaporator coil to high-pressure, high-temperature gas. This process increases the refrigerant's pressure and temperature, allowing it to efficiently release heat in the condenser. When the thermostat detects an increase in internal temperature, the compressor, which is usually found at the back or bottom of the fridge, starts the refrigeration cycle.
