Re: Balance lines
This type of question appears to have an answer the instructor is looking for based on some circumstances that may not be reasonable for all applications/installations.
The answers could be different depending on whether you asked a commercial refrigeration person or one from an industrial background.Last edited by US Iceman; 02-02-2009 at 07:11 PM. Reason: spelling
