Aluminum fitting reservoirs for evaporators are components used in refrigeration systems to collect and store condensed liquid refrigerant. These reservoirs are typically made of aluminum due to its excellent thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance.
The evaporator is a key component in a refrigeration system, responsible for extracting heat from the surrounding environment. As the refrigerant passes through the evaporator coil, it absorbs heat and undergoes a phase change from a liquid to a vapor. The vaporized refrigerant is then sent to the compressor for further processing.
During the evaporation process, some of the refrigerant may condense back into a liquid state due to temperature variations or pressure drops. This condensed liquid needs to be collected and stored to prevent it from entering the compressor, which could cause damage to the system.
Aluminum fitting reservoirs are designed to efficiently collect and store this condensed liquid refrigerant. The aluminum m…
