Overheating
Overheating is a very important term, terminology, refrigeration but unfortunately this is used for various purposes. It can be used to describe the process in which the refrigerant vapour is heated from saturation to the state at higher temperatures. The term " overheating can also be used to describe or quantify the boundary condition of the above process.
Overheating can be quantified as the temperature difference between the temperature measured by a thermometer and saturation temperature of the refrigerant is measured with a manometer. Therefore, overheating, cannot be determined from one temperature measurement alone - measurement of pressure or saturation temperature, is also needed. When overheating quantitatively it should be quantified as the temperature difference and, as a consequence associated with the device [K]. If quantitatively [C] this may be the cause of the error, where the measured temperature is taken due to overheating or Vice versa.
The process of evaporation cooling system is one of the processes in which the term " overheating is used...
