Selecting the size of pipes carrying hot gas to defrost evaporators.

Author(s) : STOECKER W. F.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

The selection of correct pipe size for carrying hot .gas to defrost evaporators is an important factor in conserving energy by such practices as maintaining low condensing pressures. The correct size will ensure that the resultant increase in specific volume of the hot gas that occurs at low pressures does not cause prohibitive pressure drops in the pipes. The way in which hot gas flow rates during defrost affects the pipe size selection is discussed together with the influence of saturation temperature.
