Saturation pressure (bubble and dew, in psig) for a refrigerant at a
temperature in Fahrenheit. For certified HVAC technicians (EPA 608; A2L
certification where required). Example: pt_lookup("R-454B", 45).
Bubble point: use for subcooling calculations. Dew point: use for
superheat calculations. Pure fluids (R-32, R-410A, R-22, R-134a) have
no glide, so both values match.
Parameterstemp_frequiredrefrigerantrequired
Saturation temperature (bubble and dew, in Fahrenheit) for a
refrigerant at a pressure in psig. For certified HVAC technicians
(EPA 608; A2L certification where required). Example: a 130 psig
suction reading on R-454B -- pt_reverse("R-454B", 130).
Use the DEW temperature for superheat work and the BUBBLE temperature
for subcooling work on blended refrigerants.
Parametersrefrigerantrequiredpressure_psigrequired
Superheat in Fahrenheit from suction pressure (psig) and suction-line
temperature (F). For certified HVAC technicians (EPA 608; A2L
certification where required). Uses the DEW point as the saturation
basis, which is the correct basis for blended refrigerants.
Typical TXV target: 8-12F.
Parametersrefrigerantrequiredsuction_psigrequiredsuction_line_frequired
Subcooling in Fahrenheit from head pressure (psig) and liquid-line
temperature (F). For certified HVAC technicians (EPA 608; A2L
certification where required). Uses the BUBBLE point as the saturation
basis, which is the correct basis for blended refrigerants.
Typical TXV target: 8-12F.
Parametershead_psigrequiredrefrigerantrequiredliquid_line_frequired
Convert between pressure units (psig, psia, kpa, bar) and temperature
units (F, C). A bare 'psi' is treated as psig. For certified HVAC
technicians (EPA 608; A2L certification where required).

Reference card for a refrigerant: GWP, ASHRAE safety class,
composition, typical oil, temperature glide, and handling notes.
For certified HVAC technicians (EPA 608; A2L certification where
required). Informational only.

Conversational diagnostic copilot: give it field readings and get back
computed superheat/subcooling plus a ranked 'check this first' list.
For certified HVAC technicians (EPA 608; A2L certification where
required). Informational only -- it suggests what to CHECK, never how
to defeat a safety device, vent refrigerant, or work uncertified.
metering: 'txv' (default) or 'fixed' for fixed-orifice/piston systems.
