    economizer line/subcooler line



    Hi guys,

    I was checking piping diagram of "economizer" for screw compressors and "sub-cooling" line of 2 stages compressors.
    Both of them were same and both of them is for subcooling liquid line and also increasing mass flow of compressor …… .

    But why on screw compressors we call it economizer line and on 2 stages compressors for blast freezer we call it sub-cooler line or I have mistake ?

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    here you can read a lot about economisers/sub-coolers ...
    http://www.refrigeration-engineer.co...earchid=699656
    about 7 pages with posts regarding economiser/ sub-coolers etc ....

    if above link is not working in search window write ... economiser ....

    ... actually economiser line is a special port on compressor which is in function only when compressor capacity is above 75-80% ... below that capacity eco port is on the same pressure which we have on suction on that system ...

    economiser main purpose is to increase system capacity up to 20%,
    but increase of input power is only 8-10% ...
