Les gaz non condensables sont des gaz parasites (généralement de l'air) qui subsistent (ou peuvent subsister) dans un circuit frigorifique à l'état gazeux, sous les conditions de température et de pression propres au système considéré. Ces gaz n'interviennent pas dans le processus de refroidissement [...] et par conséquent ne peuvent que nuire au rendement du système. Ils doivent donc être éliminés par un quelconque procédé de dégazage [...] 1, record 1, French, - gaz%20non%20condensable
