ENGI-2093Refrigeration and Compressors
This course builds upon the theory presented in ENGI-1086 Air Conditioning, Refrigeration/HVAC to provide students with comprehensive knowledge in various aspects of refrigeration. Students will study numerous facets of refrigeration systems, e.g., types of refrigeration, operating principles, components of compression (including control and safety devices), absorption systems, and refrigerant classification and properties, along with refrigeration auxiliaries, operation, and control. As well, students will study the design, operating principles, and applications of various types of industrial heat exchangers and cooling towers, in addition to studying the theory, design, control, operation, and system auxiliaries of industrial air and gas compressors.
