What are the pros and cons of a capillary tube in refrigeration?

Capillary tube is a very simple device and can be manufacture easily at low cost. The capillary tube can limit the maximum amount of refrigerant to be charged eliminating the need for a receiver in the refrigeration system. Another advantage is when the refrigeration plant is stopped, the pressure along the capillary tube and the entire system remains constant which means that if the compressor is restarted it does not need moreÊpower to overcome high pressure in the system. Hence, smaller compressors can be used instead of big, expensive ones. A disadvantage with capillary coil is that this system is non adjustable due to the fact that the control of the flow of pressure is dictated by the inside diameter of the tube.


Why throttle valve is used instead of expansion cylinder in vapour compression refrigeration system?

In vcrs system there is a phase conversion system i.e. liquid state to gases state and this happens with latent heat of working medium but on the other hand there is only gases expansion on expander cylinder and no phase changes occurs and in cylinder we can not expend two phase system..

What are the four basic components in the vapor compression refrigeration cycle?

Vapor compression in the refrigeration cycle is the process which turns heated vapor into a cold liquid. This allows the coolant to flow through the condenser and cool the air.


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.

How is liquid refrigerant added to the refrigeration system when the system is out of refrigeration?

Liquid refrigerant charging of a system is normally accomplished in the liquid line. For example, when a system is out of refrigerant, liquid refrigerant can be charged into the king valve on the liquid line or receiver.


What is the function of liquid receiver in a refrigeration system?

Liquid receivers are used to store the liquid refrigerant after it leaves the condenser. It should be located below the condenser to enable natural flow. The receiver may be constructed either vertically or horizontally and should have sufficient capacity to hold the entire system's refrigerant charge. The design should be such that only liquid refrigerant leaves the receiver and enters the liquid line. by vishal mahnn

I assume you meant to say "Where is a king valve in refrigeration?" Anyhow, it is usually located downstream from a liquid line receiver.

What is a refrigeration queen valve?

A queen valve is the service valve (isolation valve) located at the inlet of the liquid receiver (between the condenser outlet and the liquid receiver). The king valve is the service valve at the outlet of the liquid receiver (between the liquid receiver and the liquid line). Queen valves seem to be in use much less than king valves.
