a pressure high enough to enable the condensation to occur by heat transfer to a fluid at close to at-
mospheric temperature, depicted by point ‘h’ on Fig. 18.5(b); the pressure must also be below the
critical pressure for condensation to occur. The liquid that is produced at ‘j’ passes through the series of
throttles to obtain the refrigeration effect necessary to liquefy the carbon dioxide. In the last chamber,
the liquid is expanded below the triple point pressure, and the phase change enters the solid–gas region.
Carbon dioxide cannot exist as a liquid at atmospheric pressure, because its triple point pressure is
5.17 bar: hence it can either
