Abstract
A refrigeration appliance, in particular a domestic refrigeration appliance, has at least one refrigeration compartment for accommodating refrigerated goods and a refrigerant circuit. The refrigerant circuit has a condenser, an evaporator for cooling the refrigeration compartment, the evaporator being thermally coupled to the at least one refrigeration compartment and connected to the condenser, a dryer, which is arranged between the condenser and the evaporator, and a valve device, which is connected by an intermediate capillary tube to the dryer and by a throttle capillary tube to the evaporator.
Claims16
A refrigeration appliance, comprising:
- at least one refrigeration compartment for receiving refrigerated goods;
