notes

We will now review the main concepts that were covered in this clinic reagrding

the vapor-compression refrigeration cycle.

Period One introduced the concept of heat and how it is transferred from one

substance to another.

Recall that heat is a form of energy and can vary in both quantity and intensity

(temperature). Heat energy cannot be destroyed, however, it can be transferred

to another substance. Heat flows from a higher temperature substance to a

lower temperature substance.

Refrigeration is a method of removing heat.
