How to Evaluate Actual volume of refrigerant?

Actual volume of refrigerant evaluator uses Actual Volume of Refrigerant = Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor-Expanded Clearance Volume to evaluate the Actual Volume of Refrigerant, Actual volume of refrigerant formula is defined as the volume of refrigerant that is actually available for cooling in a refrigeration system, taking into account the volume of refrigerant in the system and the volume of refrigerant that is not available for cooling due to various factors such as piping volume and compressor displacement. Actual Volume of Refrigerant is denoted by Vs symbol.

How to evaluate Actual volume of refrigerant using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Actual volume of refrigerant, enter Total Volume of Refrigerant in Compressor (V1) & Expanded Clearance Volume (V4) and hit the calculate button.
