Does any one have an idea on how long it takes the liquid to turn into gas once the pressure is dropped.
For instance - through a TXV. Does the gas form instantaneously or is there a delay, a delay of 10ms or 300ms would make a huge differance.
Another example - if a liquid line ruptures does it spray liquid onto the floor which then evaporates or does it come out of the leak as a all gas?
For a pure refrigerant it may be quick but with oil added to the mixture the oil may hold back the flash off for some time?
Any ideas or referances?
Thanks:)
