How many types of air-cooled condensers used in household refrigerators?

There are two types of air-cooled condensers used in household refrigerators.

Air-cooled condensers:  These are usually made of copper tubing with thin fins assisting rapid radiation. These are mainly of two types

1. Natural air-cooled condensers

In the natural convection type, heat transfer from the condenser is by buoyancy induced natural convection and radiation.

2. Forced draft condensers

In forced convection type condensers, the circulation of air over the condenser surface is maintained by using a fan or a blower.
