Refrigeration Theory

Did you know the most common method of refrigeration is the vapor-compression refrigeration cycle? Refrigeration systems are used in many different applications to transfer heat from fluid in one area to fluid in another area, where the term “fluid” can refer to a liquid or gas. This interactive online course covers the three laws of thermodynamics, the operation of the four components of a basic refrigeration system, thermal energy transfer, and the maintenance procedures to maintain equipment efficiency.
