The diameter of the discharge line leaving the ac compressor would be smaller than the suction line, because the compressed gas in the discharge line is more dense.
Discharge side........
It will be on the suction line (larger of the lines) between the compressor and the evaporator.
The expansion device inside the outside unit expands the refrigerant gas and as a result, the discharge lines chills
Answer: The terms suction and discharge are the terms refer to hydraulics. In hydraulics if the the liquid has to be lifted or pumped to the usage area the hydraulic pump will be used . This pump will have to functions that is first suction to lift the fluid and the discharge or delivery . The familiar words in pair are lift and discharge; suction and discharge. The specification of pump for these terms are suction head and discharge head.AnswerThe suction pressure refers to the pressure of the referigerant being "sucked" back into the compressor. The suction pressure is a critical variable in ensuring the accuracy of the refrigerant charge, along with the tepmerature of that line as well. The "superheat", or heat added to the vapor in that line can be monitored in this manner.You have not mention which suction pressure... Actually Where ever the suction is presented that pressure is called suction pressure.... and suction pressure in practical cases normally always less that atmospheric pressure and in case of delivery pressure it is oppositeSaying that suction pressure is " the pressure of the referigerant being "sucked" back into the compressor " is not accurate.Simply , the suction pressure of a pump is the absolute pressure of a fluid , measured at the inlet of the pump ( in your answer , the pump is the compressor , and the fluid is whatever refrigerant. )The discharge pressure , is the absolute pressure of the liquid measured at the outlet of the pump.Obviously, the discharge pressure is usually bigger than suction pressure.
its pressure between suction and discharge flow...
Dirty condenser coils. Blocked suction lines. Low refrigerant charge. Incorrect suction line size. Too much refrigerant. Electrical problems. Contaminants in the system. Insufficient oil lubricant.
how long discharge and suction pipe shuold be for small 1-2 TR airconditioning units?
how long discharge and suction pipe shuold be for small 1-2 TR airconditioning units?
a pump consisting of a piston that moves back and forth or up and down in a cylinder. The cylinder is equipped with inlet (suction) and outlet( discharge) valves. On the intake stroke, the suction valves are opened, and fluid is drawn into the cylinder. On the discharge stroke, the suction valves close, the discharge valves open, and fluid is forced out of the cylinder.
No, the liquid (discharge) line is the high pressure side. The suction line is the low pressure side.
The low side service port is located on the suction hose coming off the rear of the a/c compressor and the high side is located on the discharge hose coming from the condenser.......
