The Engineering Mindset for a 15KW (with PHE) Capacity System , We used TE12 - Orifice 6 ( We didn't consider the Sub-Cooling caused by PHE + we weren't using PHE initially) Effectively System was delivering 10kw ODU with 15KW idu with TE 12 Orifice 6. @ 8psi Suction & 275psig Discharge. 1 system later failed as 2 cyclinders of compressor discharge reed went off, as soon as we enabled PHE,( may be or bcoz of TXV) Question is was the failure because of TE12 during normal Operation or the mismatch of PHE & TXV. Accurate Txv is TE5 Orifice 3. for the system (later as we considered additional Sub-Cooling)?

[@Ednel]

Is Thermostatic expansion valve principle the same with Direct Cooling Technology?

[@fokuspimp360]

The Engineering Mindset what happened to your VRF videos? I can't find them

I literally jumped when that compressor in animation, exploded 🤣

[@hectorsoto7575]

Same

[@filipfagersten8104]

Hahaha me 2

[@landolorean51]

This channel is amazing, the detail that goes into your animations as you describe these processes is a true gem of a study aid, I am a studying hvac apprentice and I'll be using this material to get this stuff down cold!

[@middy774]

no pun intended??

[@jonnywilson9117]

How've you gotten on with the apprenticeship? Fully qualified now??

[@joseojeda4397]

Recently got into the commercial refrigeration trade. Been watching your videos since I started. I appreciate all the info really helpful

[@buttonman6262]

Got my SV Second Engineer oral exam next month and these videos are a godsend! Thank you!

[@yechris2001]

I have watched videos from dedicated hvac techs and I was still confused. You explained it perfectly. Thank you

[@eaf2k]

Wow, absolutely high quality stuff. The level of details, clear narrative and even background music... Good job and tons of thanks!

[@ginodimarco1153]

This is a wonderful exploration a relatively complicated subject. I am currently replacing a compressor and txv for a home owner. This is a fantastic video to share with him while I complete the repair. Thank you .

[@richsellskc]

nice. i was dozing off near the end of the vid....suddenly "BOOM"... good one!

[@Sardy540]

Haha! Me too.

[@snow7912]

Exactly lol

[@gauravladha5465]

That got me😂

[@andresl2785]

Same here! Lol 😂

[@Gsantos318]

Lmao same here

[@jpjpjp5847]

Great simple video explaining the process for someone who is not an HVAC tech. Thanks.

[@danielesteves3435]

This is the best video I’ve seen explaining the TXV. Thank you 👍🏼

[@maxxsmaxx1901]

This is the best one on AC systems. Thank you !

[@bala14321]

Very well explained and highly informative. Compressor damage/ explosion due to liquid entry is worth the highlight.

[@airlanggaariopamungkas8494]

Organized and detailed explanation, i like the analogy and circled appointed equipment when the narrator speaks

[@xiaomingzou8110]

This is a great video for understanding the importance of TXV and its working principle.

[@AvianFlight]

That Jump Scare Explosion.

[@ibrahimabuadas9268]

I thought I was the only one XD

[@Rickey904]

I use a Denon amp for my pc.

[@Dartheomus]

I almost threw my mouse across the room!

[@DellAnderson]

Very nice explanation of simple TXV. But would be nice to have quick overview of some variants, like what is the third port on TXV which connects directly to the suction line?

[@teravolt6113]

It's the external equalizer line. Big evaporators need externally equalized TXVs because pressure drops considerably inside them, so the equalizing pressure is sourced from the evaporator's outlet rather than from the TXV's outlet.

[@macabre19]

These are the best videos I've seen on KZbin. 👍 Thanks

[@patrickdanga7118]

This simplified so that anyone can understand thank you

[@anthonymanson4855]

Great discussion on the function of the bulb...its pretty clear that if the valve gets stuck in the closed position, there will be no cooling even though the refrigerant in the bulb is expanding against the diaphragm (trying to open the valve).

[@michaelatkinson4434]

Change of state begins the moment the refrigerant passes through the tx, not just at the end of the evaporator. There is one constant temperature for as long as the refrigerant is changing from liquid to gas.

[@bodegadiescast305]

I went from 😴 to 👀 when compressor exploded. Well animated video, for those new hvac techs 👍

[@maysaraabdo5339]

Well said you really summed up the entire information from the beginning of your video in your example. Thank you.

[@Yourengineeringstandpt]

Turn up the volume when you're recording your videos thanks man. Thanks for the video

[@jordanhowe7621]

Lol

[@avinashkanesen53]

Thank you very much.You made a very clear explanation about refrigeration system

[@RoyIniguez]

Thank you so much watching this video. I Now understand Automotive type of expansion valve. Although it's very different it's also very similar. The automotive one does not have the capillary tube. It has a high pressure line and low pressure on the same block.

[@EngineeringMindset]

Yes, we have a video on EEV also please check our page

[@camaconetau]

I was waiting for you to tell us how to know if the super heat setting is right or wrong and why and what to do about it.

[@moatazanwar6564]

Finally, got it, thanks for sharing!

[@josephmichael308]

Superb! Very helpful for people like me who are venturing out into this field: ie- Marine engineering. Will you please do one on steering system

[@JW-qp5uf]

That explosion almost knocked me out of my chair haha.

[@ΗλίαςΦασουλάς-π8γ]

Ευχαριστούμε!

[@EngineeringMindset]

Thank you!

[@md.abulbashar1820]

Marvelous explanation.. no more word to say

[@Daluke61]

Had watched this once before, forgot the thumbs up; got it right this time around.

[@srzaasrzaa1733]

Super! Fantastic educational explanation. Please add few words about TXV capacity VS system capacity, means to say can it be variable or must be same as system capacity. Thanks

[@larryd9068]

Great explanation of THX with excellent illustrations. But please make the music lower then the narration so that the backround does not dominate speaking.

[@james77011]

this guy is an amazing teacher 😇😎🤓

[@bikerbobcat]

Compressor spontaneous disassembly was a good chuckle, thank you. :D

[@1965ace]

So basically a higher temperature at the other side of the evaporative coil opens the valve and a cooler temperature closes it. The goal is to keep the refrigerant a gas for the compressor to compress (liquids don't compress) and to keep the system from freezing in an ac unit. So in adjusting tightening the spring lets less refrigerant in thus increasing exit temperature and loosening decreases exit temperature.

[@loveofkemetify]

Who the hell thumbs down solid material such as this!? People take time to make such videos that help thousands and you get such d***s out there 😒

[@johnelicker3967]

nice always wondered what they did thanks for sharing

[@guysmileyjr.9482]

excellent graphics and good explainations

[@obioger]

Great Geat video !! Helped me a lot !

[@mikechiodetti4482]

Thank you for this very understanding information.

[@pipi7731]

Good explanation of the system. Thanks

[@WarHammer1989]

Not sure if you care to know, but around the 2:10 mark, you show a recording of a sensing bulb strapped to the suction line and it’s strapped with two zip ties Obviously it’s still going to sense the temperature off the suction line, but you should use a metal clamp instead because that metal clamp helps distribute the “coldness”-for lack of a better term-evenly around the sensing bulb and not just on the mating surfaces. Not trying to be a know it all. I just assume you like to constantly get new relevant info. Thanks Paul! I’ve almost watched all of your videos

[@EngineeringMindset]

Thanks Josh, nice tip.

[@Alex-jo2oi]

This is intimidating knowledge. Is this a necessity when getting started with installs?

[@connorspies]

Had a crummy professor for Thermodynamics. They didn’t think it was important to explain how a TXV valve works. After watching this, I have no idea how they could be so obtuse. Understanding how this valve operates is absolutely critical to be able to think about what’s happening with these systems. Screw you professor Patel.

[@fahimasghar6375]

Superb explanation. Thanks

[@saluteyanomaly7628]

Quick question: when you say the expansion valve will open more, you mean there will be more vapor in the flow (higher x value) or less ? If you cooling load is high (low x value), then the temperature after expansion, as well as after evaporation are high. In order to decrease the temperature after evaporator, you should decrease the temperature after expansion, this means you need have flow with high vapor fraction after expansion. Combining this logic and your description, the more expansion valve open indicates more vapor fraction in the flow. Am I right?

[@md.abulbashar1820]

Marvelous explained but back sounds little bit irritating. Keep up good work

[@johng5295]

Thanks in a million. Great content. Awesome. Grade: A++💥

[@argenismoreno8838]

Great video as always.

[@lifehealthandhappiness5661]

Excellent video!!

[@AJ-et3vf]

Awesome video! Thank you!

[@mountassirfares3888]

Awesome, clear and concise, if you could, slow down the music, thank you so much

[@satratey]

Excellent video, Is it possible to close TXV completely to stop the liquid refrigerant flow to the compressor when the load on equipment is very low.

[@dongertan3320]

This is great. Thanks for your educational videos. Alot of thanks.

[@giftnjagu6470]

Very Educative. Thanks

[@osamahaider918]

Amazing explanation ...thanks

[@aaronwang565]

Very helpful, thank you very much

[@matiasarntzen9060]

what happens with the pressure inside the evaporator when more liquid is injected? thank you nice videos

[@temanalysis1270]

great video/animation and explanation; background music is a bit loud and distracting

[@renj6531]

7:37 I didnt know compressors had emotion. LOL

[@vendhanmarine1]

Could you please explain about the equalising line? Why is it required? How it works?

[@patriciawhitley4095]

He just told you

[@cck1496]

Excellent video. Keep it up.

[@younessbenbrahim9360]

Thank you for this video, I wish you put more about comercial refrigeration.

[@vikasjha5760]

Can you please explain in temperature vs entropy diagram that how there is no entropy change in process 1-2 even when compressor compresses refrigerant? I believe that entropy should increase if any gas is compressed.

[@munthasirmi777]

Nice explanation.

[@joshuaaustin2541]

I flinched when that compressor blew up. was trying to sleep there

[@carlosando9316]

WOW good teaching for me..

[@faizhidayat9780]

I come in here because my teacher 👍

[@gytoser801]

Working principle of TXV: TXV controls the volume of refrigerant flow. Volume of refrigerant passing affects pressure. Narrower means lower volume and less pressure and cooler. This will decrease strength of bonds (ectothermic) and give away heat, resulting in cooler and gaseous state

[@binyammamo6454]

Thank you for the best explanation ever....

[@BhaveshKumar-xx4lu]

Good explanation

[@rupeshnaik1]

Hello sir Can you show about how oil pressure switch are woks

[@EngineeringMindset]

Seen our new pressure switch video? Link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3ibYqpmfauLhMU

[@JoeLiberalism]

So is that why you check sub cooling with a TXV system? Im new to this , trying to learn.

[@carlosportillo8863]

Great Video!

[@petez470]

Good stuff. Thanks for the video!

[@vnesmuonnam]

amazing video. Thank you

[@consaka1]

Ok, correct me if I'm wrong but in order to get a liquid to the compressor you would have to overfill the system to begin with. A system with the proper amount of refrigerant has to compress it to get it into liquid form to begin with. Once you let the pressure of from say the TXV being wide open, the liquid would simply turn back into a gas and because of no pressure it would just stay in a gas form.

[@honestman276]

Thanks from Bangladesh.
