here we have our basic refrigeration cycle powerpoint for new students to understand and we have this side in red and that side on blue because this is the high pressure high temperature side and the other side is a low pressure low temperature side and you have two components in any system that separate the high and low pressure sides and that's the compressor and the metering device so the compressor's job is to increase the pressure of the refrigerant in order to increase the temperature the metering device's job is to lower the refrigerant pressure in order to lower the temperature of the refrigerant and so you have your low pressure low temperature vapor refrigerant enters into a refrigerant compressor in this case it's a reciprocating compressor that's what that looks like right there and then you have on the outlet of the compressor high pressure high temperature vapor refrigerant and so what happens is the high pressure high temperature discharge gas is entering into the conden
