Summary

DescriptionHeatpump.svg	English: Diagram of a phase change heat pump. 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. Deutsch: Schema einer Wärmepumpe mit Phasenwechsel.

SVG development InfoField	The SVG code is valid. This diagram was created with Inkscape …important. This diagram uses embedded text/digits.

Legend

Condenser coil (hot side heat exchanger, gas cools and liquifies)
Metering Device (liquid expands and cools)
Evaporator coil (cold side heat exchanger, liquid vaporizes and heats up)
Compressor (gas is compressed and heats up)

Red = Gas at high pressure and very high temperature

Pink = Liquid at high pressure and high temperature

Blue = Liquid at low pressure and very low temperature

Light Blue = Gas at low pressure and low temperature
