Linde gas liquefaction process employs cooling ____________________?
Correct answer: A. By throttling
- A. By throttling
- B. By expansion in an engine
- C. At constant pressure
- D. None of these
Explanation
The Linde process uses Joule-Thomson throttling through a valve, with regenerative heat exchange to precool the gas before throttling. Throttling occurs at constant enthalpy, not constant pressure.
