A Two stage ammonia refrigeration system operates between overall pressure limits of 15 bar and 2 bar resply. The liquid is sub-cooled to 30°C. The temperature of de-superheated vapour leaving the water intercooler is also 30°C. The flash chamber separates the dry vapour at 5 bar pressure. The liquid refrigerant then expands to 2 bar, the evaporator pressure. The load on the evaporator is 50 kW.
