Are refrigerant temperatures and pressures in the cooling mode of a heat pump about the same in both the suction side and the discharge side of the system?

Yes refrigerant temperatures and pressures in the cooling mode of a heat pump is the same. They are both in the suction side and the discharge side of the system.

Will low refrigerant cause excess electric bill?
If the refrigerant is not at an optimal level (either too low or too high), the system will have to work harder to produce the same amount of cooling. This results in more electricity being used to get the same amount of cooling.
What are Types of cooling in transformer?
Air cooled water cooled oil cooled Totally enclosed fan cooled Refrigerant cooled
In a heat pump installation the direction of flow refrigerant vapor is reversed through what component when the cycle is reversed from heating to cooling?
The reversing valve
How hvac systems work?
Heating, ventilating, air conditioning systems (HVAC) most often use a refrigerant for cooling and a furnace or heat pump for heating. Both heating and cooling are directed through the same ventilation network.
What controls the heat pump to determine whether it in the heating cycle or cooling cycle?
The refrigerant is pumped round the system, one way or the other. The warm side is the high-pressure side on one side of the nozzle.
How is rock gypsum formed By weathering and erosion cooling of magma precipitation from a water solution or recrystallization from high temperatures and high pressures?
The third answer is correct.
Why is refrigerant used?
Refrigerant are used in refrigerator for cooling and dehumidifying indoor air.
What happens if you over charge a ac system?
Usually there is no immediate result except for reduction in cooling proficiency. If the system is overcharged it will not cool properly, of course, this depends on how much over charging you are talking about. As more refrigerant is added the system's pressures will increase. At some point these pressures will become excessive and this will result in damage to the system usually over time. An A/C system is designed to run on a specific amount of refrigerant. Any deviation from this will cause less cooling ability.
What does refrigerant compatibility mean not what it is?
Refrigerant compaticilty is about suiting the refrigerant to your refrigerant system. Every cooling system has refrigerant in it which depends on the type of system you use. If the refrigerant not matches with your system, it wont work. This is refrigerant compatibility.
Does a 1995 Pontiac Grand Am SE with a 4-cylinder have an air release valve in the cooling system?
No air release. there is a high presure and a low pressure valve, these are used for filling refrigerant, checking pressures, and evacuating the system.
What is the cooling agent inside pipes of a refrigerator?
It is called refrigerant, major refrigerant is hydro fluoro carbon (HFCs).
A refrigerant in a cooling system cools the surrounding air?
as it condenes
Use discharge in a sentence?
The discharge from the power plant cooling tower is full of toxins.
What is the substance that absorbs and releases heat in a cooling system?
A refrigerant is a substance that absorbs and releases heat in cooling systems.
What should the sub cooling be on a txv 404a refrigerant freezer?

What are the advantages and disadvantages of LNG dual mixed refrigerant liquefaction technology as compared to LNG propane pre-cooled MCR liquefaction technology?
Operation in arctic climates poses additional challenges. The main challenges from a process design standpoint are, of course, the low ambient temperatures and the wide range of temperature extremes throughout the year. Average ambient temperature over the year could be about 0°C, and the temperature can vary from -40°C to 30°C. The low ambient temperatures lead to an atypical power split between the propane compressor used for pre-cooling and the mixed refrigerant compressors used for liquefaction and sub-cooling. Typically the power split is 1/3 for pre-cooling and 2/3 for liquefaction and sub-cooling. At 0°C, this shifts to about 1/4 for pre-cooling and 3/4 for liquefaction and sub-cooling. Also, this power split can vary significantly due to the wide temperature extremes. There are several options for modifying the C3MR process in order to maximise the utilisation of power available from the compressor drivers while maintaining efficient and effective refrigerant compressor operation over the wide temperature range. One of these options consists of using a mixed refrigerant in the pre-cooling instead of propane. By varying the concentrations of the refrigerants used in the pre-cooling stage, plant operators can respond to changing climatic conditions. Increasing the proportion of propane creates a heavier mix in summer, while adding ethane yields a lighter mix for winter. The Dual Mixed Refrigerant (DMR) process has been developed to overcome the limitations imposed by the use of a single component refrigerant in the pre-cooling cycle. There are many variations of the DMR process, which use a mixed refrigerant for pre-cooling. This pre-cooling mixed refrigerant is heavier than the mixed refrigerant used for liquefaction and sub-cooling. The main advantage of these cycles is that the pre-cooling mixed refrigerant composition can be adjusted on a seasonal basis as the temperature changes. The DMR process provides the highest thermal efficiency, but also the greatest equipment count, complexity and multiple refrigerant handling. Traditional C3MR pre-cooling cannot be adjusted this way. However, around the equator in places like Brunei, Nigeria, or in Northern Australia, for example, temperatures vary less, so it makes sense to use propane first.
How do you know when you need freon?
The only way to know if Freon (refrigerant) is needed in an air conditioner is to use tools and gauges to measure the performance of the system. The amount of refrigerant needed is based on the design of the entire system including the size of the unit, length and size of the refrigerant lines, temperatures, and type of refrigerant. Refrigerant is not consumed. If refrigerant is needed then the system was either not charged correctly when installed or there is a leak. There could be many reasons a system is not cooling. The correct answer to the question is: A skilled service technician will determined that the system was low on refrigerant by using pressure gauges, thermometers and other tools. There not function a home owner can perform to see if refrigerant is needed.
