Synonym: Throttling Temperature effect = Joule–Thomson effect


Temperature change of a fluid (except ideal gas) when it is forced through a valve or percolating through porous medium while keeping it insulated so that no heat is exchanged with the environment (that is, at constant enthalpy {\displaystyle H}= \rm const).


The value of temperature effect  \Delta T is proportional to pressure drop \Delta P:

(1) \Delta T = \epsilon_{JT} \cdot \Delta P

where

\epsilon_{JT}

is Joule–Thomson coefficient
