What is suction and discharge superheat?
Suction superheat is the heat added to the refrigerant above that required to change its state from liquid to vapour (as happens in the evaporator). This heat is added both in the evaporator, in the suction line and (where applicable) in the suction accumulator.Discharge superheat is suction superheat plus heat of compression, and must be removed in the condenser before condensation, the change of state from vapour to liquid, can occur.The HVAC Veteran
Effect of moisture on thermostatic expansion valve?
None, a TXV operates by it's sensing bulb sensing superheat of the suction line as it exits the evaporator coil.
Where is suction and discharge s?
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.
How would you get superheat of a residential air conditioner?
Turn it around
What is superheat for chiller?
to reach the required temperature from lower processed temperature.

What is the superheat if the suction pressure is 60 psig and the suction line temperature is 40 degrees?
-5 something is wrong
What is the relationship between evaporator air flow and suction superheat?
air flow and liquid change of state
What happening when you are overcharging an air conditioning with freon?
discharge pressure is high, suction pressure is high superheat is low and subcooling is high.
Effect of moisture on thermostatic expansion valve?
None, a TXV operates by it's sensing bulb sensing superheat of the suction line as it exits the evaporator coil.
What is the purpose of the external equalizer on a TXV?
The purpose of the External equalizer on the TXV is to compensate for the pressure drop in the evaporator coil , This is done since the superheat calculation is based on the difference in the Saturation temperature corresponding to the Suction pressure (Measured after the coil) and the actual suction line temperature. Now, in a TXV measurement of actual line temperature is accomplished by using the Sensing Bulb and the Measurement of the Suction pressure by the External Equalizer of the TXV. The opening/Closing of the Expansion valve is controlled by the setting of the superheat which is governed by the setting of the Spring.
How do you calculate superheat temp?
take your gages and put them on the beginning of the evaporator (afte metering device or txv) and look at saturation temp then get your temp at the suction line (before the compressor)
Do you add freon on a low superheat or high superheat?
add
When was Superheat created?
Superheat was created on 2000-01-25.
How do you mesure superheat?
take your gages and put them on the beginning of the evaporator (afte metering device or txv) and look at saturation temp then get your temp at the suction line (before the compressor) then take you first temp and your second temp and subtract you highest temp from you lowest temp and that would be your superheat
How is work quench valve in reefer?
A refrigeration circuit is provided with a quench line connecting the liquid line and the suction line and containing a QEV. The QEV is controlled responsive to the superheat of the refrigerant supplied to the compressor. By injecting liquid refrigerant downstream of the suction modulation valve and the sensor for the TXV, the system can be operated at low capacity without overheating the compressor oil.
Why is the degree of superheat of refrigerant does not exceed 5 degree centigrade?
We require to superheat the refrigerant to ensure that no liquid enters in the compressor.So in most of the cases degree of superheat is kept 2 to 3 deg c
