Answer to Question 1

A suction-to-liquid line heat exchanger can be added to a system to improve its efficiency and help to prevent liquid from returning to the compressor.

Answer to Question 2

Liquid receivers are located on the high side after the condenser and let only liquid leave. Accumulators are located on the low side after the evaporator and let only vapor leave.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
