SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the interpolation of R-134a refrigerant properties when given a pressure of 600 kPa and a temperature of 25°C. It clarifies that the absence of a corresponding value in the superheated table indicates that the refrigerant is likely superheated, as the saturation temperature (Tsat) for 600 kPa is approximately 21.58°C. Participants emphasize the importance of interpolating between the saturation temperature and the next available temperature (30°C) to determine the properties at 25°C accurately.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of refrigerant properties and phase changes
  • Familiarity with R-134a thermodynamic tables
  • Knowledge of interpolation techniques in thermodynamics
  • Basic principles of refrigeration cycles
NEXT STEPS
  • Study R-134a thermodynamic tables in detail
  • Learn interpolation methods for thermodynamic properties
  • Explore superheating and subcooling concepts in refrigeration
  • Investigate the impact of pressure and temperature on refrigerant performance
USEFUL FOR

Refrigeration engineers, HVAC technicians, and students studying thermodynamics who need to understand refrigerant behavior and property interpolation.

What does it mean when you are given a pressure and temperature of refrigerant and the values in the tables are not in the same row? Like 600 kpa and 25 degrees celsius. 600Kpa should be around 21.-- degrees.

Maybe it's superheated
 
That row for 25 deg Celsius is blank in the superheated table. What does that mean?
 
The first line shows the properties at Tsat (21.58 Celsius). The next line gives the properties at T=30 Celsius. Interpolate between those.
