2. Structural Features and Working Principle
2.1 Main Functions
SIC-W air-cooled water chillers include consists of four main components, which
are compressor, condenser, thermostatic expansion valve, and evaporator. The
system adopts single-stage vapour compressed refrigeration system, which uses
refrigerant gas-liquid conversion to absorb and release heat, thus achieving the
cooling effect.

Picture 2-1：Working Principle Diagram
When the machine is started, compressor (1) starts working. Refrigerant is
compressed into high pressure and high temperature gas in the process from B to
C to enter the condenser 2 to exchange heat with the air, which changes from gas
to liquid and the heat is taken away by the air. In the C-D-E-F process, the liquid
