Abstract

Our project aims to designexperiment test set up for experimental purposein Refrigeration and college laboratories. The ice plant test rig is used to calculatecapacity of the ice plant, evaluatecoefficient of performance (COP) of the system, to decrease the refrigeration time. Asperour studiesof research paper, physical and chemical properties of different type’s refrigerants, we concludedthat R134a is best suitable refrigerant for the proposed system. Brine solutionis most suitable as a secondary refrigerant for the requirements of the system due to its excellent properties over refrigerantUsed in Earlier Era. The typical oldice plant has been studied and a prototype model of an ice plant has been fabricated with above said accessories.
