MULTISTAGE CYCLES
Where the ratio of suction to discharge pressure (compression ratio) is high enough to
cause a serious drop in volumetric efficiency or an unacceptably high discharge
temperature, vapor compression must be carried out in two or more stages.
discharge pressure (absolute)
compression ratio =
suction pressure (absolute)
1. Compound system
2. Cascade system
In compound compression vapour refrigeration systems, the superheated
vapor refrigerant leaving the first stage of compression is cooled by suitable
method before being fed to the second stage of compression and so on.
Such type of cooling the refrigerant is called intercooling.
Some compound compression is with intercoolers or flash chamber.
