11: The actual expansion curve of compressor follows most nearly which one of the following

  • Pressure-Temperature
  • Isothermal
  • Adiabatic
  • Volume

12: What is a high-side float?

  • Located in the evaporator, is a float-type metering device that rises to reduce refrigerant flow when the liquid refrigerant level rises in the low side of the chiller
  • Located in the liquid line entering the evaporator, is a float-type metering device that rises to reduce refrigerant flow when the liquid refrigerant level rises in the high side of the chiller
  • Located in the liquid line entering the evaporator, so when the refrigerant level is higher in the liquid line than the evaporator, the float rises to allow more refrigerant flow into the evaporator
