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 ).
The value of temperature effect is proportional to pressure drop
:
\Delta T = \epsilon_{JT} \cdot \Delta P |
where
| is Joule–Thomson coefficient |
There are two major types of throttling temperature effects:
| Orrifice Throttling Temperature @model | Percolation Throttling Temperature @model |
