Compressor car refrigerators

Compressor principle

— similar models use the same principle of operation as conventional home refrigerators. The compressor "drives" the refrigerant through the refrigeration circuit between the evaporator and the condenser; cooling occurs due to the evaporation of the refrigerant, then excess heat is discharged to the outside through the condenser heat exchanger. This principle of operation is considered the most effective: compressor car refrigerators very quickly gain operating temperature and perfectly cool the contents, it is quite possible to provide freezing in them, and the volume of such a unit can be almost any. On the other hand, compressor systems are quite complex and expensive, they do not tolerate shocks and shaking, and they also require a constant power supply, which can create inconvenience during long field trips.
