🔍 Key Concepts

• How a thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) controls refrigerant flow in response to evaporator outlet conditions • The meaning of superheat in a refrigeration system and where it is measured • Which system pressures or temperatures a TXV is designed to react to directly (bulb, spring, and evaporator pressure)

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: What physical input does the sensing bulb of a TXV actually measure, and how does that relate to valve opening or closing? • Consider whether a TXV is meant to maintain a specific pressure, a specific temperature, or a specific condition at the evaporator outlet. • Think about what an engineer or mechanic would actually ‘set’ on a TXV during adjustment—would they be watching a pressure gauge, a thermometer, or calculated superheat?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify what superheat is: the temperature of the vapor above its saturation temperature at a given pressure. • Verify where the TXV sensing bulb is located and what line it is strapped to—this tells you what it’s truly controlling. • Check which of the options mentions a condition that is directly tied to the evaporator outlet rather than the compressor suction or condenser head.
