Refrigerant in the liquid line is in a liquid state. It has condensed from its vapor form into a liquid due to the pressure and temperature conditions in the line. This liquid refrigerant is ready to enter the evaporator coil to absorb heat and undergo the phase change process again.
its called a meniscus
The liquid line receiver is a vessel used in refrigeration systems to store and separate liquid refrigerant from the rest of the system. It helps ensure that only liquid refrigerant enters the expansion valve, thus improving system efficiency. When the system is running, liquid refrigerant flows into the receiver and is stored until needed by the evaporator.
If the liquid line is icing up, it could be due to a few reasons such as low refrigerant levels, a restriction in the line, or a problem with the expansion valve. This can impact the system's performance and efficiency, so it's best to have a professional technician inspect and resolve the issue.
A liquid line drier used in heat pumps is typically a filter drier that contains desiccants to remove moisture and contaminants from the refrigerant flowing through the system. It helps protect the system components from damage and improves the efficiency of the heat pump by ensuring proper refrigerant flow.
The suction line is the big one. This line should be cold when the unit is on. The small line is the liquid line.
Yes, it is only serviced as part of the liquid line. The liquid line is the aluminum line that runs along the passenger side inner fender.Yes, it is only serviced as part of the liquid line. The liquid line is the aluminum line that runs along the passenger side inner fender.

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.
No, the "liquid line" is the little line, also called the "high side" line. When operating properly, it should be hot, sometimes very hot.
Yes. They are.
A flat line on a phase diagram indicates a phase transition occurring at a constant temperature and pressure. For example, a flat line on a gas-liquid equilibrium graph means that the substance is transitioning between the gas and liquid phases without changing temperature or pressure.
A meniscus line is the little line that you have at the top of a liquid. If you fill a glass up with water, the line that seems to sit at the top of the water that you see when you look at the glass at eye level is the meniscus line.
Yes, it is inside the liquid line along the passenger side inner fender.Yes, it is inside the liquid line along the passenger side inner fender.
Meniscus
Assuming you do not refer to the hole at the top and bottom but are referring to a third hole somewhere above the liquid line then the reason is this; By sucking on the top of the straw which is in a liquid, you create a vacuum above the liquid line which draws the liquid to replace the vacuum. If a hole appears somewhere above the liquid line then air is drawn limiting the vacuum and thus the liquid cannot be drawn through the straw.
