π₯Έ Learn about π₯ Superheat βοΈ through this video!
β To determine the superheat at 155 psi for R410A, we need two things:
1. Saturation temperature of R410A at 155 psi.
2. Actual temperature of the refrigerant vapor (measured at the evaporator outlet or suction line).
Then: Superheat = Actual Temperature
Saturation Temperature
β Step 1: Saturation Temperature of R410A at 155 psi
Using an R410A pressure-temperature chart:
At 155 psi,
the saturation temperature is ~5Β°C
β Step 2: Actual Vapor Temperature
You need to measure this with a temperature probe on the suction line.
For example, if the measured temperature is:
15Β°C, then
Superheat = 15Β°C β 5Β°C = 10Β°C
8Β°C, then
Superheat = 8Β°C β 5Β°C = 3Β°C
π― Summary:
Suction Pressure Saturation Temp (Β°C) Superheat Formula
155 psi ~5Β°C
Superheat = Measured Temp β 5Β°C
