Refrigerant, not coolant. Coolant is the fluid used to transfer heat
from a hot place to a cooler place by flow of the fluid (thermal siphon
effect or with a pump) relying on latent heat absorption at the hot end
and latent heat emmission at the cool end without involving any change of
phase (solid to liquid or liquid to gas or vapour, for instance).


This paragraph would be better if you removed the two "latents".
