[edit] Summary

Diagram of a phase change heat pump. Drawn in Inkscape by Ilmari Karonen.

Note that the arrows in the diagram are meant to indicate the flow of air and coolant; they do not correspond to heat flow, which in the system depicted is (generally) from right to left.

[edit] Legend

  1. Condenser coil (hot side heat exchanger)
  2. Expansion valve (gas expands, cools and liquifies)
  3. Evaporator coil (cold side heat exchanger)
  4. Compressor
  5. Red = Gas at high pressure and temperature
  6. Pink = Gas at high pressure and reduced temperature
  7. Blue = Liquid at low pressure and greatly reduced temperature
  8. Light Blue = Gas at low pressure and warmer temperature
