Thermodynamic, or thermal, heat pumps are the mathematical and conceptual models for refrigeration, air conditioning and refrigeration cycles. A heat pump is an air-source machine which enables for the transportation of heat from a lower temperature to a higher one at a lower temperature. The process is conceptually simple - the cooler refrigerant gas is drawn into the condenser at low pressure and warmed up before being pushed out to the evaporator core at high pressure. The high pressure and high temperature of the evaporator result in enthalpy, or internal thermal energy of the refrigerant gas that is used by the condensing refrigerant to produce heat.

This is basically how a thermodynamic system works. However, it has a number of twists, and there are six main factors to consider which make the thermodynamic refrigeration cycle unique from other forms of refrigeration. The first of these is that the liquid refrigerant is heated in the compressor before entering the condenser. This makes it distinctively different from the compressors of the past whose only job was to generate static heat in one place, such as inside a water heater.


Another twist in the thermodynamic refrigeration cycle is the presence of an expansion valve. The expansion valve is used to control the internal pressure. It does this by opening and closing a ring like a tire valve on the pipe connecting the pressure relief to the expansion valve. When the pressure reaches a preset point, the valve will close so that the expansion valve will let the refrigerant gas to escape to the lower pressure area. When the pressure is returning to its original level, the expansion valve will open to allow the refrigerants into the evaporator core.


There are several other factors affecting the thermodynamics of the refrigeration cycle. For example, the size and type of the compressor to determine the rate of which heat is produced, as well as the speed at which the warm air is moved into the condenser. In turn, this affects the speed at which cold air is pushed out of the condenser into the evaporator. Also, some types of compressors require the addition of an anti-freezing component to prevent condensation between the cooling fan and the compressor's expansion valve. Other components such as chillers may utilize the same principles of refrigeration to move heat away from the condenser before the warmed air enters the compressor to be cooled.


A qualified HVAC technician should be able to explain to you the function of the various components and the way each one works. You should also be able to get a clear explanation of the benefits and drawbacks of each refrigeration cycle. If you visit a HVAC service facility, you can expect an experienced technician to be on hand to help you with this process. Having a knowledgeable technician available during your air conditioning repair or maintenance visit will help make things go smoothly.


The most efficient refrigeration cycle begins before the compressor starts up. The compressor is designed to cool during startup, and it is important that the conditioner does not run until the compressor has warmed up sufficiently. Otherwise, the compressor may have problems starting up when you need it to work and will waste energy. On the other hand, the conditioner should run until the compressor is ready to cool down.
