Undergrad How is target superheat table generated for R22 HVAC system

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The target superheat table for R22 HVAC systems is generated by inputting the evaporator air intake wet bulb temperature and the condenser ambient temperature. These readings are then translated into the appropriate target superheat values based on established HVAC principles. The process involves understanding the thermodynamic properties of R22 refrigerant and its behavior under varying conditions. For detailed guidance, refer to the article on HVAC troubleshooting using superheat measurements.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of R22 refrigerant properties
  • Knowledge of HVAC thermodynamics
  • Familiarity with superheat measurement techniques
  • Experience with HVAC system troubleshooting
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the generation of superheat tables for R22 systems

It seems the practice is to enter the table with evaporator air intake wetbulb temp and condenser ambient temp. I'm trying to understand the theory that translates these readings into the proper target superheat.

Thanks

Yes, I'm somewhat familiar with that article... the question is, how is the table generated?
