Liquid Sub Cooling
The degree of liquid sub cooling required to prevent flashing of liquid refrigerant can be calculated by
the following method.
Given the following as an example:
• Refrigerant R410A
• Condensing temperature (54.4°C)
• Liquid lift 20m
• Piping friction loss 0.21 bar
• Losses through valves and fittings 0.5 Bar
1. Determine the pressure drop due to pipe friction = 0.21 Bar
2. Pressure drop due to valves and fittings = 0.5 Bar
3. Pressure loss due to liquid lift = height x 0.115 = 20 x 0.115 = 2.3 bar
Note:- At normal liquid temperatures the static pressure loss due to elevation at the top of a liquid lift
0.115 bar/m
Therefore:- Total pressure loss in liquid line = 3.01bar
Condensing pressure @ Condensing temperature (54.4°C) = 34 Bar
Total pressure loss in liquid line = 3.01 Bar
Nett pressure at Expansion valve = 34 - 3.01 = 30.99 bar
Saturation temperature at the Nett pressure at expansion valve (30.99 bar) = 52°C
(from Refrigerant tables)
Sub cooling required
= Condensing temperature — Saturation temperature at the Nett pressure at expansion valve
= 54.4 - 52 = 2.4 °C
Therefore liquid sub cooling required to prevent liquid flashing = 2.4 °C
