What cause ice formation on suction lines of the compressor?

The system and the load have become imbalanced. It will need to be looked at as the possible causes are many.


What causes the milky white in ice?

Here is the answer:The center of an ice cube is white because it is full of bubblesand other defects like cracks and boundaries between ice crystals. Cold water, from the faucet or in an ice tray, will freeze cloudily. Warm water, from the faucet or in an ice tray, will freeze clear. I have no clue why. I tried it one day and it worked. They are found in the center more than at the surfaces because the the water freezes from the outside in, and at a fairly slow rate.This allows the outer ice to solidify with fewer cracks and defects thanthe later ice. Hard water contains minerals like calcium that condense when frozen, which will cloud up ice cubes. As water freezes, dissolved air is forced out as a gas, which forms bubbles. These bubbles are trapped in the ice, making it look opaque.One additional item: ice and ice cubes can be made clear using the right water (clean and not aerated) and the right rate of freeze. If you have ever seen a nice ice sculpture, you know big blocks of ice can be pretty clear, but they usually dont' stay that way.--matt


Who invented the artificial ice machine?

Why is the suction pipe of vapour compression refrigeration system insulated?

To minimize sweating of the air around the pipe. When the air comes in contact with a cool surface, its water vapor condenses!


Why were earmuffs invented?

Chester Greenwood was an avid ice skater who lived in Maine. He found it difficult to keep his ears warm while skating and needed something to shield his ears from the bitter cold. He created two circular hoops from wire and covered them in beaver fur and velvet. They were connected by a steel band, which served as a headband.

Why is Ice weak to Steel?

Because steel is a harder material than ice.


Is steel stronger than aluminum?

It heavily depends on which type of stainless steel you're referring to and what your definition of strong is. High carbon and perhaps plain carbon steels would be harder then austenite and ferritic stainless, but martensitic stainless would be harder then plain/high carbon. Austenite and ferritic stainless would be tougher and austenite would have have highest degree of corrosion resistance. I consider a steel to be "strong" if it has a balance of hardness and toughness in which case,I would say martensitic stainless steels.

Because of the interlocking fibers of the sawdust holding the pykrete together.


Titanic is built with metal and metal is stronger then ice so how did the Titanic sink?

The Ice is much stronger because this ice is not like an ice cube as an ice cube is filled with almost frozen water. the iceberg is filled with more ice. The ice can also cut through the ship by breaking the bolts and steel plates holding the ship up. It's believed that some of the rivets were made from defective steel. It is also believed that the iceberg only damaged compartments 2 and 3, but acoustic stress on the single hull caused it to crack, much like the Liberty Bell. Normally, it wouldn't be a problem, but the high sulfur content of the steel made it brittle when chilled by the Atlantic, causing it to crack like glass when it hit the iceberg. There are several more reasons why the iceberg crippled the Titanic, but I won't go into those.


How causes steel to melt ice?

There is no inherent property of steel that causes it to melt ice. Ice will melt if it comes in contact with something that is warm enough to melt it, regardless of what it is made of. One possible advantage that steel has is that, like any metal, it is a good conductor of heat. This would allow it to transfer heat more quickly than a nonmetallic substance.


Can ice be as hard as steel in sub zero levels?

Yes, there are times that ice can be as hard as steel in sub zero levels.


Is Articuno stronger than heatran?

No Becuase Heatran Knows Fire types and fire is super Effiective Against Ice Unless if Articuno Knows Water Type Moves Jialiang123456789: Heatran is stronger than Articuno because Fire type moves are super effective against ice type Pokemon. Articuno is an ice type. Heatran is a fire type. So that makes articuno weaker than Heatran.
