Generally, the refrigeration works on the principle of Vapour Compression Refrigeration System (VCRS). Refrigeration has condenser which removes heat from the refrigerant and transfer the heat to the surroundings. The primary component of the condenser is typically the condenser coil, through which the refrigerant flows. The main objective of this project is to increase the coefficient of performance of the refrigeration system by designing the condenser coil with copper fins. The main purpose for adding fins to the plane condenser is to increase the surface area contact to the surroundings. The reason for selecting the copper as the material for the manufacturing of the condenser fins is that it has more heat transfer rate. The main objective of this paper is to compare the COPs of the refrigeration system of copper finned air-cooled condenser with both taking R-134a and R-600a as refrigerants.
