    Refrigerant Storage in Off System: Gas or Liquid?

    @ russ_watters Why can't the liquid flow to the compressor cavity. Why then the ac mechanics advise us not to tilt the compressor during shifting or relocating. They say it is the compressor that stores the gas during OFF. Please expalin this part.

    Refrigerant Storage in Off System: Gas or Liquid?

    But once it reaches the vapor pressure, some of it becomes liquid and if so will the liquid remains in the tube ?

    Refrigerant Storage in Off System: Gas or Liquid?

    Thanks But where will the two phase regime stay Within the compressor or the tubes

    Refrigerant Storage in Off System: Gas or Liquid?

    WHERE is the refrigerant stored in the refrigeration system when the system is in OFF and in WHAT state Gas or Liquid ?

    How does butane gas flow from a canister to refill a lighter?

    Thanks But I still don't have a clear picture If the lighter tank is vented to atmosphere causing a pressure drop between canister and tank, Will then the volume of fuel exiting the tank= volume of fuel entering the tank from canister Then how does it gets filled

    How does butane gas flow from a canister to refill a lighter?

    when butane lighters are refilled by external canister, HOW and WHY butane gas flows from canister to lighter Is it due to GRAVITY or VAPOR PRESSURE? If GRAVITY is the reason I have posted a link where torch is held above the canister? If it is vapor pressure, it is going to be same is both...

    How does a clay pot cool water?

    @ Chestermiller If a part of latent of vaporization of water is taken from pot then the resulting air would have a higher enthalpy value than the initial condition since some part of heat is externally added from pot.Then how come the air has an constant enthalpy value as stated in...

    How does a clay pot cool water?

    From things I've read it states that water oozes through pores of clay pot to outer surface and absorbs the heat form outer air.The heat absorbed is latent heat for water and specific heat for air outside which lowers the air temperature and as evaporation on outer surface takes place water...

    Is there a difference between water vapor and wet steam?

    @ russ_watters So you say that water that evaporates from open or other sources at atmospheric conditions is water vapor(invisible to human eyes) and as they move upwards they condense to form clouds, containing suspended liquid droplets and is called wet steam. If water vapor at atmospheric...

    Is there a difference between water vapor and wet steam?

    @ ksukhin So, you say that vapor doesn't mean particularly wet steam but can refer to all three forms of steam (wet, saturated, super-saturated ) depending on the vapor quality or dryness fraction. If so then if vapor exists in saturated and supersaturated states then they would be transparent...

    Is there a difference between water vapor and wet steam?

    @ russ_watters The so is wet steam containing suspended liquid particles in gaseous form.Can you please be more specific ?

    Is there a difference between water vapor and wet steam?

    Both water vapor and wet steam contain both contain tiny droplets of water particles(correct me if I'm wrong).Does it mean both water vapor and wet steam are same and one ?

    Magnetic field with and without ferrite core

    An air core circular coil of n turns produced a magnetic field of (for eg) 0.5 tesla at a point in space (not within the coil nor along the axis of coil). If a ferrite core of μr (relative permeability)=200 and of the same length of the coil is inserted into the coil what happens to the magnetic...
