How to turn a fridge compressor into a 250v generator
I have successfully built a powerful 250v 5000w generator from an excellent fridge air compressor which you can read more about;
The vapor compression refrigerator is based on the condensation of vapor from a refrigerant fluid following compression, and its evaporation following expansion. This is the most widespread process for the production of cold. This principle is identical to that used for heat pumps.
This process is to be distinguished from the turbocooler, in which a gas is compressed, cooled to ambient temperature, then expanded in a turbine. This other method does not involve a phase change. One can note its resemblance to the Brayton cycle of the gas turbine.
The compressor, in a refrigeration device, has the role of creating a High Pressure (HP) on one side, and a Low Pressure (LP) on the other, in order to ensure the circulation of a fluid in the circuit. refrigerant from a heat pump.
But who says, fluid, does not always say in its liquid phase.
A compressor always draws in and discharges refrigerant in the gaseous phase (vapour).
The families of refrigeration compressors
There are three main families of refrigeration compressors:
Hermetic compressors.
Semi-hermetic compressors.
Open compressors.
Hermetic compressors
Hermetic compressors are compressors in which the motor part and the compression part are confined in a sealed, non-removable bell.
If one of the parties gives way, the compressor is out of service and cannot be repaired.
Its electrical part is cooled by the Low Pressure (LP) vapors of the refrigerant during compressor operation.
