Full StoryRefrigeration Design
This was the final project for air conditioning design class. It consist of a heat transfer analysis and psychrometric analysis. Heat transfer analysis was made by me, while Mech. Eng. Neysa Alicea performed the Psychro analysis. I found on my pc the heat transfer analysis only so no psychro analysis is present in the pdf. [...]
