Where is the compressor located in a TXV A/C System?

• A. After condenser before receiver dryer
• B. After the receiver dryer and before the evaporator
• C. After the evaporator before the condenser
• D. Between the compressor and evaporator

Answer: (C)

In a TXV A/C system, the compressor sits between the evaporator and the condenser. It takes low‑pressure vapor from the evaporator, compresses it to high pressure and temperature, and pushes it into the condenser where heat is rejected. The rest of the loop—receiver/drier, expansion valve, and then the evaporator—follows after the condenser. So placing the compressor after the condenser or after the dryer would disrupt the flow, and placing it between the compressor and evaporator isn’t how the loop is arranged. The correct location is between the evaporator and condenser.
