ABSTRACT
The energy crisis persists all across the globe. The supply of continuous electricity is
still not available in several areas of the world and also the climatic changes and global
warming demand accessible and affordable cooling system in the form of refrigerators
and air conditioners. These can be overcome by using Eco-Friendly refrigerant like LPG,
Biogas, Compressed Natural gas etc.
Eco friendly refrigerant is available in cylinders at high pressure. When this high
pressure refrigerant is passed through the capillary tube the pressure of refrigerant is dropped
due to expansion and phase change of refrigerant occurs. Due to phase change from liquid to
gas latent heat is gained by the liquid refrigerant and temperature drops. Thus it acts as a
refrigerant and produces cooling effect.
