🔍 Key Concepts

• Basic refrigeration cycle (compressor, condenser, receiver, expansion valve, evaporator) • Function and location of the thermal expansion valve (TXV) • Difference between high-pressure liquid line and low-pressure side of the system

💭 Think About

• After the thermal expansion valve, is the refrigerant high-pressure or low-pressure? Is it mostly liquid, mostly vapor, or a mix? • Which component’s job is to absorb heat from the refrigerated space right AFTER the pressure drop at the valve? • Where in the normal flow sequence of components does the thermal expansion valve sit?

✅ Before You Answer

• Know the normal flow order: compressor → condenser → receiver → expansion valve → (what comes next?) • Confirm which side of the system (high side vs low side) each option belongs to • Be sure the component you choose is the one that directly receives the low-pressure refrigerant leaving the TXV
