said by Tex:That looks like a rotary compressor. Not all residential refrigerator compressors are rotary. Reciprocating compressors have crankshafts, connecting rods, pistons and valves.
But in the end they still take a gas at one pressure and change it to another pressure.
I don't mean to be rude, but I don't need a lesson in the refrigeration cycle.
I didn't go over the refrigeration cycle, I simply demonstrated how any possible liquid would be flashed off before it made it to the actual compressor.
Besides, you are not quite accurate in your description. Thanks anyway, though.
As in???
