    Using adiabatic capillary tube



    In using adiabatic capillary tube, does the refrigerant temperature
    remains constant until the flash point is reached?

    Re: Using adiabatic capillary tube

    Hi BWD,

    An adiabatic process is one that occurs without transfer of heat or matter between a system and its surroundings. The adiabatic process provides a rigorous conceptual basis for the theory used to expound the first law of thermodynamics, and as such it is a key concept in thermodynamics.
    Translated to engineering speak:
    The refrigerant can not start to absorb heat until it reach the end of your capillary tube and expands.
