The thermostatic expansion valve (TEV) controls the flow of liquid refrigerant entering the direct expansion (DX) evaporator by maintaining a constant superheat of the refrigerant vapor at the outlet of the evaporator. The TEV controls the difference between the actual temperature and the saturation temperature of the refrigerant corresponding to the suction pressure at the sensing bulb location; this is superheat. By controlling superheat, the TEV keeps most of the evaporator surface active, while preventing liquid refrigerant from returning to the compressor. The ability of the TEV to match refrigerant flow to the rate at which refrigerant can be vaporized in the evaporator makes the TEV the ideal expansion device for most air conditioning and refrigeration applications.
