Origin:
A flare copper capillary is a small, flexible tube made of high-quality copper. It is used in refrigeration systems as an expansion device in conjunction with compressor units and evaporators. The capillary tube's precise diameter and length are engineered to control the flow of refrigerant through the system, enabling efficient cooling processes.
The flare copper capillary serves multiple functions in a refrigeration system:
a. Pressure Reduction: As the high-pressure refrigerant leaves the compressor, it enters the capillary tube. The capillary's small diameter causes a significant pressure drop, enabling the refrigerant to transition from a high-pressure, high-temperature gas to a low-pressure, low-temperature liquid.
b. Expansion: The capillary tube acts as an expansion device, regulating the flow of refrigerant into the evaporator. By restricting the refrigerant flow, it creates a pressure difference that facilitates the absorption of heat from the surrounding environment, resulting in cooling.
c. Superheat Control: The capillary length, diameter, and material properties are carefully calibrated to maintain the desired superheat. Superheat refers to the temperature difference between the evaporating refrigerant and a reference temperature. Control over superheat ensures efficient heat transfer and protects the system from potential issues such as frost formation.
Flare copper capillaries provide indispensable functionality in refrigeration systems, contributing to their efficiency and cooling performance. Their ability to regulate refrigerant flow, facilitate pressure reduction, and control superheat makes them vital components in modern refrigeration systems. With their compact design, durability, and cost-effectiveness, flare copper capillaries continue to play a pivotal role in the advancement of efficient and sustainable cooling technologies.
