Discharge (Hot Gas) Line Sizing
Discharge line size is based on the velocity needed for proper chiller operation handling oil properly and protecting
compressor from damage that can result from condensing liquid refrigerant during shutdown.
Total friction loss for discharge line from 20 to 40 kPa is considered good design. Carefully consideration must be given
for sizing each section of piping so that gas velocities are sufficient at all operating conditions to carry oil.
If the velocity in a vertical discharge riser is to low, considerable oil can collect in the riser and horizontal header, causing
compressor to lose oil and it can result in compressor damage due to lack of oil. When the compressor load (and the gas
velocity in the discharge line) increase the oil collected during reduced load can be carried out in a slug back to the
compressor causing damage.
Any discharge lines coming into and horizontal header should rise above the centerline of the header.
The discharge lines should pitch downward, in the direction of the hot gas flow, at the rate of 6 mm per meter of
horizontal run. This is necessary to move by gravity any oil lying in the header. Oil pockets should be avoided because
oil would collect at such points and the compressor can become starved.
If the chiller unit is below condenser, loop the discharge line to at least 2.5 cm above the top of the condenser. A
pressure tap valve should be installed at the condenser to facilitate measuring pressure for service.
A relief valve should be installed on the discharge line.
Reference for discharge line sizing is shown in Table 4. It has to be used for reference only, for circuit working with
evaporator leaving temperature equal to C and condensing temperature equal to 55°C. Line dimensioning is
responsibility of plant designer, use ASHRAE Refrigeration Handbook or other suitable design guide..

Oil Charge
In remote condenser application the oil charge into the compressor has to take into account that a percentage of oil
around 1% is usually mixed into the refrigerant, so some oil has to be added to the standard charge if the refrigerant
charge exceed the standard charge of the unit. What is important, during the unit operation, is that the oil level in the oil
separator is not lower than the ¼ of the upper sideglass.
