REFRIGERATION
REFRIGERATION CYCLE
DIAGRAM EXPLAINED
()
The thermodynamic processes in the
refrigeration cycle are complex. Calculation
using formulae and tables requires a
considerable amount of effort due to the
three different states of the refrigerant from
liquid, boiling and gaseous. Therefore, for
reasons of simplify cation, the log p-h
diagram was introduced.

Refrigeration cycle
concept
In general, a log p-h diagram shows the
aggregate state of a substance, depending
on pressure and heat. For refrigeration, the
diagram is reduced to the relevant regions of
liquid and gaseous as well as their mixed
form.
• pressure p
• specific enthalpy h
• temperature T
• specific volume v
• specific entropy s
• gas content x
Green = compressor
Red = condenser
Yellow = expansion valve
Blue = evaporator

Specific amounts of
energy
The specific amounts of energy that can be
absorbed and released to reach the state
points are marked as lines in the log p-h
diagram. The specific enthalpy h can be
read for each separate state point directly
from the log p-h diagram.
