Carters Widget Revealed!

[Peter_1]

Just noticed this one again... Interesting.

The flashgas is taken into account for calculation of the net refrigeration effect.
Will try to explain my vision: all the bubbles together present at the exit of the TXV have a certain mass at a certain enthalpy. During the pass through the evaporator, they will absorb heat, so the enthalpy will change and....

No, wrong Peter, twisting my brain again,..If it's already 100% gas and we add heat, then it becomes superheated. The bubbles are already at a complete gaseous phase, surrounded by liquid which still can absorb heat, So, the flashgas is already at the condition like we will find finally all the liquid on the right side of the saturated curve. Due to the fact that the flashgas is already 100% gas, it must be positioned on the right side of the curve.

What's Carters Widget, a little bit difficult for me to translate..what's widget anyway?

Question Gents, Please correct me,

What your saying Peter is, that the 2phases, will not follow their respective curves of the bell &

1. the liquid = saturated liquid
2' the vapour = superheated vapour

Once in the bell, both gas and liquid is saturated.
Now I will make a perhaps strange jump: isn't is possible that the gas in the mixture is movings straight to the right too its saturated point and not going vertical, starting from the throttling device?

Removed as so - not to confuse the thread - with another
