| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| As refrigerant passes through the compressor | Its pressure and temperature are increased. |
| The refrigerant that exits the compressor travles to the | condenser via the discharge |
| The compressor takes a _____ pressure ______ vapor and compresses it to a _____ pressure _____ vapor | Low ,superheated High,superheated |
| Lines of constant quality applies only to the area within the saturation curve. | True |
| Lines of constant quality applies only to the areas outside the saturation curve | False |
| The horizontal lines of a pressure enthalpy diagram represent constant pressure. | True |
| Constant enthalpy is represented on a pressure enthalpy diagram by vertical lines that run from the bottem to the top of the page. | True |
| The area to the right of the saturation curve is the zone where the liqued is represented as sub-cooled | False |
| The area to the right of the saturation curve is the zone where vapor is represented as super-heated. | true |
| A sub-cooled liqued is liqued which has been cooled belowed its saturation temperature at a given pressure. | True |
| The area to the right of the saturation curve is the zone where vapor is represented as saturated refrigeran. | False |
| One key relationship shown on a pressure enthalpy diagram is between pressure and boiling temperature. | True |
| A reciprocating compressors direction of rotation is critical for oil pump operation | False |
| A crank case heater is an anti-slugging device | False |
| The pistion of a reciprocating compressor must lower cylinder pressure below suction line pressure before suction gas will enter the cylinder. | True |

| The piston of a reciprocating compressor must lower cylinder pressure before compressed gas leaves the cylinder. | False |
| The piston of q reciprocating compressor must lower cylinder pressure before the suction valve opens and lets new suction gas in to the cylinder. | True |
| The piston of a reciprocating compressor must raise cylinder pressure before compressed gas leaves the cylinder. | True |
| Net useful oil pressure of a reciprocating compressor is oil pump discharge pressure minus suction pressure. | True |
| The screw compressors impeller spins at high speeds (3,000 to 20,000 RPM)inside the compressor housing. | False |
| Increased compression ratio will cause the compressor to work harder. | True |
| Increased discharge pressure results in increased capacity. | False |
| The pressure enthalpy diagram has four zones to represent the differant physical conditions of the refrigerant in a refrigeration cycle. | False |
| Compliant scroll design refers to being less tolerant to liquid refrigerant. | False |
| The critical temperatureof R134A is 213 degres F the critical point represents the limiting condition for the existence of liquid. | True |
