In economised units, before expansion, a portion of liquid is spilled from the soobcooled condensate, expanded to an
intermediate pressure and than flows trough an heat exchanger where, on the other side, flows the remaining part of
liquid. In this way the soobcooling on the liquid is increased and a small amount of vapour at intermediate value is
produced and injected in the compressor economiser port, so increasing compressor efficiency (reducing discharge
superheat).
