🔍 Key Concepts

• Thermal expansion valve (TXV) role in a basic refrigeration cycle (compressor, condenser, expansion device, evaporator) • Where in the system the expansion valve is located and what it does to refrigerant pressure and flow • Difference between devices that control refrigerant flow and devices that control electrical power to components

💭 Think About

• Think about what has to happen to the liquid refrigerant just before it enters the evaporator so that it can absorb heat efficiently. • Ask yourself: does a thermal expansion valve work with water, electricity, or refrigerant itself? • Match each choice with the component it sounds like it belongs to: evaporator, condenser, or compressor control.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which component actually changes refrigerant pressure and flow going into the evaporator. • Check whether a thermal expansion valve is used on the water side or the refrigerant side of the system. • Confirm which device normally starts and stops the compressor (is that the thermal expansion valve or another control like a pressure or temperature switch?).
