"now the reason so much capillary is used.for one diameter of tubing first reduces the amount entering the tube and then the lenght of the tube give you more or less resistance for the refridgerant to pass though.
it is like draging you hand on the wall while you are walking down a hall.the longer you drag you hand the more energy you use ,and this and slows you down slightly.
same here ,longer the refridgerant has to drag down a long capillary the slower it becomes."

But if the length of the cap. tube is of any impotance, as you mention, then when using a tev valve you still have to use a certant length of cap. tube ?

I cant see that when the cap. tube is longer, that there will be more resistanse, but i guees i will have to live with that one

Anyway, Bowman thanks for answering, merry christmas and a happy new year to you.
