Refrigerant Saturated Temperature
Refrigerant saturated temperature is calculated from the pressure sensor readings for each
circuit. The pressure is fitted to a curve made up of 12 straight-line segments. The points
used to define these segments are shown in the following tables.

Evaporator Approach
The evaporator approach is calculated for each circuit. The equation is as follows:
Evaporator Approach = LWT – Evaporator Saturated Temperature
Suction Superheat
Suction superheat is calculated for each circuit using the following equation:
Suction superheat = Suction Temperature – Evaporator Saturated Temperature
