Question

What is the Joule - Thomson effect ?

Answer 1

Joule-Thomson еffect is the temperature change of liquids or gases when they are forced through a porous plug or valve which is kept insulated without the transfer of heat or production of work. This procedure is known as throttling process. All the gases except helium, neon and hydrogen cool at room temperature upon the expansion by the throttling process.
