What is the role of the liquid storage tank?

As the name suggests, the role of the liquid storage tank is to store the refrigerant, because the amount of the refrigerant is controlled when the chiller is running normally. The important thing is that the amount of the refrigerant is in the process of condensation and evaporation. It must be effectively controlled, otherwise there is no way to ensure the normal operation of the chiller. Through the above explanation, we can know that the location of the liquid storage tank is behind the condenser. What does it mean? After the condenser, a liquid storage tank for the refrigerant must be installed, so that the evaporator and the subsequent processes can operate normally in the subsequent evaporation process.

To be specific, the accumulator is a turnover device that can ensure that the amount of refrigerant is controlled and the refrigeration system can operate normally. In fact, the accumulator is often indispensable in industrial chillers. Yes, and for small cooling systems, such as refrigerators, there is no need to set up a liquid storage tank, because the refrigerant will circulate in the entire refrigeration system without a liquid storage tank. Industrial chillers often need to use storage tanks. The liquid tank is used to store the refrigerant to ensure sufficient liquid supply and the normal operation of the system.
