What may be the boiling point (temperature) of a refrigeration POE oil at, let's say, 500 microns absolute pressure ?
The boiling point of oil at vacuum depends on the type of oil being used. Generally, the boiling point ranges from 250-350 degrees Celsius.
Yes, the boiling point of oil at vacuum is significantly lower than its boiling point at normal atmospheric pressure. This is because the lower pressure in a vacuum allows the oil to boil at a lower temperature.
The boiling point of oil at vacuum is important for various industrial processes that require the use of vacuum distillation, such as refining crude oil or producing essential oils. It is also important for understanding the behavior of oil under different conditions.
The boiling point of oil at vacuum is affected by the type of oil, the level of vacuum, and the purity of the oil. Additionally, the boiling point can be influenced by external factors such as temperature and pressure.
The boiling point of oil at vacuum is typically measured using a vacuum distillation apparatus, where the oil is heated and the temperature at which it begins to boil is recorded. This process is repeated at different levels of vacuum to determine the boiling point at varying pressures.
