🔍 Key Concepts

• Thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) function in a refrigeration system • Role of the sensing bulb on the TXV • Meaning of superheat at the evaporator outlet

💭 Think About

• Which part of the system does the TXV sensing bulb monitor: air in the box, liquid line, or the suction gas leaving the evaporator? • Is the TXV trying to control pressure directly, or maintain a certain temperature difference between the refrigerant boiling point and its actual temperature? • What happens to the valve opening if the refrigerant leaving the evaporator gets too hot compared to its saturation temperature?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify what superheat is: the temperature of refrigerant vapor above its saturation temperature at a given pressure. • Determine where superheat is measured in relation to the evaporator. • Confirm which parameter the TXV internal mechanism (bulb pressure vs. spring/equalizer pressure) is actually sensing and reacting to.
