Abstract
A refrigerating system includes: an evaporator (2) for performing a cooling operation as a refrigerant is evaporated; a compressor (4) for compressing the refrigerant discharged from the evaporator as a mover is reciprocally moved; a condenser (6) for changing the refrigerant compressed in the reciprocating compressor to a liquid refrigerant; and a capillary tube (8) for decompressing the refrigerant discharged from the condenser and transferring it to the evaporator. The refrigerant is an HFC refrigerant, hydrogenated carbon fluoride comprising hydrogen, fluorine and carbon and the lubricant is an ester-based lubricant, a sort of synthetic fluid, so that a lubricating performance and a performance of the refrigerating system can be improved.
Claims10
A refrigerating system of a reciprocating compressor comprising:
- an evaporator for performing a cooling operation as a refrigerant is evaporated;
- a reciprocating compressor which includes a driving unit having a stator consisting of an outer stator fixed inside a hermetic container, an inner stator disposed with a certain air gap with an inner circumferential surface of the outer stator, and a winding coil wound at one of the outer stator and the inner stator, to which power is applied from an external source, a mover consisting of magnets disposed at regular intervals between the outer stator and the inner stator and linearly and reciprocally moved when power is applied to the winding coil and a magnet frame, in which the magnets are mounted, for transmitting a linear reciprocal motional force to a compression unit, a compression unit for performing a compressing operation on a refrigerant upon receiving the linear reciprocal motional force of the driving unit, and a lubrication unit for supplying the lubricant, a sort of a mineral oil, to each motional portion of the driving unit and the compression unit and performing a lubricating operation;
- a condenser for changing the refrigerant compressed in the reciprocating compressor to a liquid refrigerant;
- and
- a capillary tube for decompressing the refrigerant discharged from the condenser and transmitting it to the evaporator,
- wherein the refrigerant is an HFC refrigerant, hydrogenated carbon fluoride comprising hydrogen, fluorine and carbon and not including chlorine, and the lubricant is an ester-based lubricant, a sort of synthetic fluid, with a high moisture absorption and a saturated water amount of 1500˜2000 PPM.
