Introduction
Danfoss has developed a injection valve type TXI 2 for desuperheating in 2-stage refrigeration systems operating on R22 where the hot gas temperature and the intermediate pressure are the controlling variables. Application In principle there are two dierent ways in which to setup 2-stage refrigeration systems as far as temperature signal to the liquid injection valve is concerned. Example 1 2-stage refrigeration system built up with a combined LP/HP compressor. In this case the discharge gas temperature on the HP side is used as temperature signal and the
Application examples
intermediate pressure as pressure signal to the injection valve. In this example a TXI 2 injection valve is used, see g. 1.

Example 2 2-stage refrigeration system with 2 separate refrigerating compressors in series. In this set up a solution with injection valve type TXI 2 can be used, because the discharge gas temperature on
the HP side can be used as temperature signal and the intermediate pressure as pressure signal to the injection valve, see g. 2.

Example 3 Same setup as in example 2 with 2 separate refrigerating compressors in series. As in this setup there is an accessible control signal where there is correspondence between pressure and temperature, regulation of the strongly
superheated condition of the refrigerant can be undertaken by a traditional thermostatic expansion valve e.g. Danfoss type TX 2 for R22 refrigeration systems, see g. 3.

The valve function is controlled by the intermediate pressure (PI) acting under the diaphragm and the bulb pressure derived from the discharge gas temperature across the diaphragm (g. 4).

Operation (continued)
The intermediate pressure (PI), setting spring and bulb temperature form a working range which, expressed in a co-ordinate system, makes up a working area, see g. 5.
Fig. 5
Fig. 5
Within the limits of this area, the working point required is found (PI/tbulb). The location of the working point depends on the spring force set and in addition to that dependent on the proportional band (the superheat) and the valve capacity (size of orice). Therefore, the sizing is decisive for a satisfactory result.

Sizing
To size TXI 2 the refrigerating capacity required to remove the superheat at the intermediate stage must be known as well as the required discharge gas temperature on the discharge side. Besides this the pressure drop p across the injection valve must be determined as the dierence between the condensing pressure and the pressure at the intermediate stage. With the values for the required capacity, the Example: Required refrigerating capacity Q = 5 kW Evaporating temperature at intermediate state t0 = 25C Pressure drop across TXI 2 p = 12 bar' Discharge gas temperature (HP) = 110C

Setting
TXI 2 cannot be set until the refrigerant system is started up. Setting after start-up is carried out when the discharge gas temperature has been recorded and the intermediate pressure is known or measured. By means of the diagram, g. 5, the actual working point is found. From the location of the working point in the diagram, g. Perm. working pressure PS/MWP: Max. test pressure: Capillary tube: 34 bar 37.5 bar 1.5 m.
5, it should be decided whether to increase or decrease the spring force. Alteration of the spring from slack to tight setting corresponds to 6 revolutions of the TXI 2 setting screw.
