Slide Content
Air cycle refrigeration systems useairas their refrigerant, compressing it and expanding it
to create heating and cooling capacity.Heat flows in direction of decreasing temperature
i.e. From high temperature to low temperature regions.
But the reverse process (i.e. heat transfer from low to high temperature) cannot occur by
itself (Claussius Definition of Second Law). This process requires a special device called
Refrigerator.
The Carnot cycle is used to convert the heat into the mechanical work
whereas the reverse Carnot cycle is used to absorb the heat from the
system and rejects to the surroundings to maintain the system cool.
Carnot Refrigeration cycle is a totally reversible cycle which consists of
two reversible isothermal processes and two isentropic processes.A
refrigerator or heat pump that operates on the reversed Carnot cycle is
called a Carnot refrigerator or a Carnot heat pump.

The termheat pumpis usually reserved for a device that can heat
a house in winter by using an electric motor that does work W to
take heatQ
coldfrom the outside at low temperature and delivers
heatQ
hotto the warmer inside of the house.
The operating principle ofrefrigerators,air conditioners, andheat
pumpsisthe same,and it is just thereverseof aheat engine.
In general, aheat pumpis a device that transfers heat energy from
aheat sourceto a “heat sink,” but in this case, the transfer occurs in the
opposite direction of spontaneous heat transfer byabsorbing heatfrom
acold spaceandreleasing itto awarmer one.

We know that;
COP of Refrigerator = Heat absorbed / work supplied
= Heat absorbed / (Heat rejected –Heat absorbed)
= T2 (Sb-Sa) / [T1(Sb-Sa) –T2(Sb-Sa)
= T2 / (T1-T2)
Therefore, COP of Carnot Refrigerator is :
whereT
His the source temperature andT
Lis the sink
temperature where heat is rejected (i.e., lake, ambient air,
etc.).

Brayton cycle is a thermodynamic cycle that describes the
operation of certain heat engines that have air or some other
gas as their working fluid.
ABrayton Refrigeration cyclethat is driven in the reverse
direction is known as thereverse Brayton cycle. Its purpose is
to move heat from the colder to the hotter body rather than
produce work.
This cycle is also known as the gas refrigeration cycle or the
Bell Coleman cycle. This type of cycle is widely used in jet
aircraft for air conditioning systems using air from the engine
compressors. It is also widely used in the LNG industry.

In compliance with the second law of thermodynamics,heat cannot
spontaneously flowfrom cold system to hot system without external
work being performed on the system. Heat can flow from colder to the
hotter body, butonly when forced by external work.This is exactly
what refrigerators and heat pumps accomplish. These are driven
by electric motors requiring work from their surroundings to
operate. One of the possible cycles is a reverse Brayton cycle,
which is similar to the ordinary Brayton cycle, but it is driven in
reverse via net work input. 12/28/20217 Suhail Bhatia

Aircraft air refrigeration systems are required due to heat transfer
from many external and internal heat sources (like solar radiation
and avionics) which increase the cabin air temperature. With the
technological developments in high-speed passenger and jet
aircrafts, the air refrigeration systems are proving to be most
efficient, compact and simple.
Despite outside temperatureis low refrigeration is required in inside
the occupant cabin because :
1. large internal heat is generated due to occupant and equipment
inside the cabin.
2.Heat generation due to skin friction caused by the fast moving
aircraft.
3. At high altitude, the outside pressure will be sub-automatic.
4.Solar radiation.
For low speed aircraft flying at low altitudes, cooling system may not
be required, however, for high speed aircraft flying at high altitude, a
cooling system is must.

Ambient air gets rammed before the main compressor.
The air required for refrigeration system is then bled off from
this compressor.
It is then sent to the heat exchanger where this high pressure
and high temperature air is cooled using ram air.
Air is further cooled in the cooling turbine due to its expansion.
The turbine work drives the cooling fan which draws ram air
through the heat exchanger.
The cooled air from turbine is then sent to the aircraft cabin.

Example
A simple air cooled system is used for an aeroplane having a load of 10
tones. The atmospheric pressure and temperature are 0.9 bar and 10°C
respectively. The pressure increases to 1.013 bar due to ramming. The
temperature of the air is reduced by 50°C in the heat exchanger. The

cabin is 25°C. Determine :

It is similar to the simple cooling system except that the addition of an
evaporator between the beat exchanger and cooling turbine. The
evaporator provides an additional cooling effect through evaporation of
a refrigerant such as water. At high altitudes, the evaporative cooling
may be obtained by using alcohol or ammonia. The water, alcohol and
ammonia have different refrigerating effects at different altitudes. At
20000 metresheight for example, water boils at 400 C, alcohol at 90 C
and ammonia at -70°C.

Problem on simple air evaporative cooling system
Example
Simple evaporative air refrigeration system is used for an aeroplane to take 20
tones of refrigeration load. The ambient air conditions are 20°C and 0.9 bar.
The ambient air is rammed isentropically to a pressure of 1bar. The air leaving
the main compressor at pressure 3.5 bar is first cooled in the heat exchanger
having effectiveness of 0.6 and then in the evaporator where its temperature is
reduced by 5°C. The air from the evaporator is passed through the cooling
turbine and then it is supplied to the cabin which is to be maintained at a
temperature of 25°C and at a pressure of 1.05 bar. If the internal efficiency of
the compressor is 80% and that of cooling turbine is 75% determine:
1. Mass of air bled off the main compressor;
2. Power required for the refrigerating system; and
3. C.O.P. of the refrigeration system.

This boot strap air cooling system has two heat exchangers instead of
one, and a cooling turbine drives a secondary compressor instead of
cooling fan. The air bled from the main compressor is first cooled by the
ram air in the first heat exchanger. This cooled air, after compression in
the secondary compressor, is led to the second heat exchanger where it
is again cooled by the ram air before passing to the cooling turbine. This
type of cooling system is mostly used in transport type aircraft.

Comparison of Various Air Cooling Systems used for Aircraft
Dry Air Rated Temperature (DART):The concept of Dry Air Rated
Temperature is used to compare different aircraft refrigeration cycles.
Dry Air Rated Temperature is defined as the temperature of the air at the
exit of the cooling turbine in the absence of moisture condensation. For
condensation not to occur during expansion in theturbine, the dew
point temperature and hence moisture content of the air should be very
low, i.e., the air should be very dry. The aircraft refrigeration systems are
rated based on the mass flow rate of air at the design DART. The
cooling capacity is then given by:
where, m is the mass flow rate of air,TDARTandTiare the dry air
rated temperature and cabin temperature, respectively.

The performance curves for the various air cooling systems used for
aircrafts are shown above. These curves show the dry air rated turbine
discharge temperature (DART) against the Mach number. From the figure,
we see that the simple air cooling system gives maximum cooling effect on
the ground surface and decreases as the speed of aircraft increases. The
boot strap system on the other hand, requires the air plane to be in flight so
that the ram air can be used for cooling in the heat exchangers.
One method of overcoming this drawback of boot strap system is to use
part of work derived from turbine to drive a fan which pulls air over the
secondary heat exchanger, thus combining the features of a simple and
boot strap system .As the speed of aircraft increases, the temperature of
ram cooling air rises and the ram air becomes less effective as a coolant in
the heat exchanger. In such cases, a suitable evaporant is used with the
ram air so that the cabin temperature does not rise.
For high speed aircrafts, the boot strap evaporative or regenerative systems
are used because they give lower turbine discharge temperature than the
simple cooling system. In some cases, aeroplanes carry an auxiliary gas-
,turbine for cabin pressurisation and, air conditioning. From the chart, we
see that the turbine. Discharge temperature of the air is variable. Therefore,
in order to maintain the content temperature of simply air to the cabin, it
requires some control system.
