TL;DR: In this article, the effect of capillary tube geometry on the performance of refrigeration systems was studied using both physical models and mathematical modeling concepts, and the parameters stated above can be further optimized in order to enhance the performance.
Abstract: It is essential to study the effect of capillary tube geometry on the performance of refrigeration systems. The literature review focuses on the effect that geometrical parameters like capillary tube length, bore diameter, coil pitch, number of twist and twisted angle have on the pressure drop, coefficient of performance (COP) and mass flow rate of the system. These parameters can be further studied using physical models and mathematical modeling concepts. The parameters stated above can be further optimized in order to enhance the performance of the refrigeration system.
