Summary

THE DISCHARGE PRESSURE OF A REFRIGERATING MACHINE TENDS TO LOWER WHEN THE OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE DROPS BELOW ABOUT 283 K (10 DEG C) IN WINTER. WHEN THE DISCHARGE PRESSURE FALLS AND THE PRESSURE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE INLET AND OUTLET OF THE VALVE IS SMALL THE VALVE COMPENSATES THE FLOW RATE OF THE CIRCULATING REFRIGERANT, THUS REDUCING THE ENERGY CONSUMED BY THE SYSTEM. CALCULATED EXAMPLES SHOW HOW ENERGY IS SAVED BY USING THIS VALVE.
