Description

Ultralow-temperature refrigeration is defined here as refrigeration in the temperature range of -58 to -148°F (-50 to -100°C).What is considered low temperature for an application depends on the temperature range for that specific application. Low temperatures for air conditioning are around 32°F (0°C); for industrial refrigeration, -31 to -58°F (-35 to -50°C); and for cryogenics, approaching 0°R (0 K). Applications such as freeze-drying, as well as the pharmaceutical, chemical, and petroleum industries, use refrigeration in the low-temperature range as designated in this chapter. The refrigeration cycles presented in this chapter may be used in both standard packaged and custom-designed systems. Cascade systems are emphasized, both autocascade (typical of packaged units) and two-refrigerant cascade (found in custom-engineered low-temperature systems).
