Summary

THE ARTICLE DESCRIBES THE EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS OF A LIQUID REFRIGERANT FEED DEVICE IN A REFRIGERATION SYSTEM. THE DEVICE IS AN ELECTRICALLY-DRIVEN EXPANSION VALVE WHOSE OPENING AND CLOSING IS CONTROLLED BY A STEPPED MOTOR. REFRIGERANT SUPERHEAT AT THE EVAPORATOR OUTLET WAS CONTROLLED TO MAINTAIN A PRESET VALUE VIA A PROPORTIONLITRV EXPERIMENTS WERE PERFORMED UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF COMPRESSOR START-UP AND VARIATIONS IN THE EVAPORATOR INLET AIR TEMPERATURE. EXPERIMENTS WITH A CONVENTIONAL THERMOSTATIC EXPANSION VALVE WERE ALSO PERFORMED IN ORDER TO MAKE COMPARISONS. IT WAS FOUND THAT THE ELECTRICALLY-DRIVEN EXPANSION VALVE SOLVES INSTABILITY PROBLEMS WHICH ARE INHERENT IN CONVENTIONAL REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS USING ORDINARY THERMOSTATIC EXPANSION VALVES.
