I dont get the first question?
Whatever I am trying to give some answers according to the
questions.
First question is "Is expansion valve a throttle valve".
The answer is, it is not necessary always.Because there are
several types of expansion valve like
1. Hand (manual) expansion valves
2. Capillary Tubes
3. Orifice
4. Constant pressure or Automatic Expansion Valve (AEV)
5. Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TEV)
6. Float type Expansion Valve
7. Electronic Expansion Valve
Coming to the Second question,capillary tube is a
long ,narrow tube of constant diameter.the main purpose of
it is to reduce pressure from condensor to evapourator to
continue the flow.In capillary tube because of following
two reasons pressure is dropped down.
1)The refrigerant has to overcome the frictional resistance
offered by tube walls. This leads to some pressure drop
2)the average density difference in the tube (mixture of
liquid and vapour refrigerant) makes some velocity
increases which in term drops the pressure.
Coming to third question :throttling valve is not a kind
of pressure reducing valve,rather its a flow control valve
to control the flow of the system as per required for the
system
,whereas capillary tube is fixed opening type tube to
reduce the liquid refrigerant pressure to the evapourator
pressure.
sorry for the lengthy answer. :(
