Inside the refrigerator the lower-pressure liquid evaporates to lower-pressure gas. That is then compress to higher-pressure gas and condeses to higher-pressure liquid which goes into the expansion valve.
Refrigeration is the process of removing heat from an enclosed space and rejecting it for the purpose of lowering the temperature of the enclosed space and then maintaining that lower temperature. Cold is the absence of heat and in order to decrease a temperature, one removes heat, rather than adding cold and this satisfys the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
The liquied refirgerant is at a low temperature and pressure so that it is colder than the air inside the fridge. The refrigerant absorbs energy from inside the refrigerator and lowers the refrigerator's interior temperature keeping your food cold.
First the low-pressure gas goes into the compressor and is compressed without losing heat. Then a high pressure gas comes out of the compressor and goes to a condensor where it condenses into a liquid. Then the refrigerant into an expansion valve and expands without absorbing any heat. Now the gas expands and cools and is sent back into the fridge with the same internal energy as it started with.
The refrigerator has a lower pressure liquid that evaporates to a lower pressure gas. Then it is compressed to a higher pressure gas and condes into a higher pressure liquid. After that it goes into the expansion valve and back into the refrigerator at the same pressure it started with.
It is at a lower temperature and lower pressure that removes heat from inside of the fridge and sends it outward. This fulfills the second law b/c in the absence of that heat, cold fills in the space and decreases the temperature instead of just adding the cold to the heat to cool it off. THE END.
