# Story 1.6: Expansion Valve Component
Status: done
## Story
As a control engineer,
I want to model an expansion valve with isenthalpic expansion,
So that I can simulate pressure reduction in the refrigeration cycle.
## Acceptance Criteria
1. **Expansion Valve Struct** (AC: #1)
- [x] Define `ExpansionValve<State>` struct with Type-State pattern for ports
- [x] Inlet port (high pressure, subcooled liquid) and outlet port (low pressure, two-phase)
- [x] Support ON, OFF, and BYPASS operational states from Story 1.7
- [x] Optional: Variable opening parameter for control (0.0 to 1.0)
2. **Isenthalpic Expansion** (AC: #2)
- [x] Enforce enthalpy conservation: h_out = h_in (isenthalpic process)
- [x] Pressure drop: P_out < P_in (throttling process)
- [x] No work done: W = 0 (adiabatic, no external work)
- [x] Phase change detection: inlet liquid outlet two-phase
3. **Component Trait Implementation** (AC: #3)
- [x] Implement `Component` trait from Story 1.1
- [x] 2 residuals: enthalpy conservation, pressure continuity constraint
- [x] `n_equations()` returns 2
- [x] `get_ports()` returns slice of connected ports
- [x] `jacobian_entries()` provides analytical derivatives
4. **Mass Flow Handling** (AC: #4)
- [x] Mass flow passes through unchanged: ṁ_out = ṁ_in
- [x] In OFF mode: mass flow contribution = 0
- [x] In BYPASS mode: P_out = P_in, h_out = h_in (no expansion, adiabatic pipe)
5. **Opening Control (Optional)** (AC: #5)
- [x] Optional `opening: f64` parameter (0.0 = closed, 1.0 = fully open)
- [x] When opening < threshold: treat as OFF state
- [x] Opening affects effective flow area (future: mass flow coefficient)
6. **Error Handling** (AC: #6)
- [x] Return `ComponentError` for invalid states (negative pressure, etc.)
- [x] Validate opening parameter: 0.0 opening 1.0
- [x] Zero-panic policy: all operations return Result
7. **Testing & Validation** (AC: #7)
- [x] Unit test: isenthalpic process verification (h_in = h_out)
- [x] Unit test: pressure drop handling
- [x] Unit test: OFF mode (zero mass flow)
- [x] Unit test: BYPASS mode (P_in = P_out, h_in = h_out)
- [x] Unit test: Component trait integration
- [x] Unit test: opening parameter validation
## Tasks / Subtasks

## Dev Notes
### Architecture Context
**Critical Pattern - Isenthalpic Expansion:**
The expansion valve is a throttling device with constant enthalpy:
```
h_in = h_out (enthalpy conservation)
P_out < P_in (pressure drop)
W = 0 (no work)
Q = 0 (adiabatic)
```
**Thermodynamic Process:**
```
Inlet: Subcooled liquid at P_condenser, h_subcooled
Outlet: Two-phase mixture at P_evaporator, h_out = h_in
Quality at outlet: x_out = (h_out - h_f) / h_fg
```
**Component Location:**
```
crates/components/
├── src/
│ ├── lib.rs # Re-exports
│ ├── compressor.rs # Story 1.4
│ ├── port.rs # Story 1.3
│ ├── state_machine.rs # Story 1.7 (partial)
│ ├── heat_exchanger/ # Story 1.5
│ └── expansion_valve.rs # THIS STORY
```
### Technical Requirements
**Required Types from Previous Stories:**
```rust
use entropyk_core::{Pressure, Enthalpy, MassFlow};
use crate::port::{Port, Disconnected, Connected, FluidId};
use crate::state_machine::OperationalState;
use crate::{Component, ComponentError, SystemState, ResidualVector, JacobianBuilder};
```
**Struct Definition:**
```rust
pub struct ExpansionValve<State> {
port_inlet: Port<State>,
port_outlet: Port<State>,
operational_state: OperationalState,
opening: Option<f64>, // Optional: 0.0 to 1.0
fluid_id: FluidId,
_state: PhantomData<State>,
}
```
**Residual Equations:**
```rust
// Residual 0: Enthalpy conservation (isenthalpic)
r_0 = h_out - h_in = 0
// Residual 1: Mass flow continuity
r_1 = _out - _in = 0
```
**Note on Pressure:** Pressure is set externally by connected components (condenser outlet, evaporator inlet). The valve does not enforce specific outlet pressure - it's determined by system equilibrium.
### Implementation Strategy
1. **Create ExpansionValve struct** - Follow Compressor pattern from Story 1.4
2. **Implement Type-State** - Use `ExpansionValve<Disconnected>` and `ExpansionValve<Connected>`
3. **Implement Component trait** - 2 residuals, analytical Jacobian
4. **Add operational states** - ON/OFF/BYPASS from state_machine.rs
5. **Add tests** - Follow test patterns from compressor.rs and heat_exchanger/
### Testing Requirements
**Required Tests:**
- Isenthalpic process: Verify h_out equals h_in within tolerance
- Pressure drop: Verify P_out can differ from P_in
- OFF mode: Verify zero mass flow contribution
- BYPASS mode: Verify P_out = P_in and h_out = h_in
- Component trait: Verify n_equations() returns 2
- Opening validation: Verify 0.0 opening 1.0 constraint
**Test Pattern (from previous stories):**
```rust
#[cfg(test)]
mod tests {
use super::*;
use approx::assert_relative_eq;
fn create_test_valve() -> ExpansionValve<Connected> {
let inlet = Port::new(
FluidId::new("R134a"),
Pressure::from_bar(10.0),
Enthalpy::from_joules_per_kg(250000.0),
);
let outlet = Port::new(
FluidId::new("R134a"),
Pressure::from_bar(10.0),
Enthalpy::from_joules_per_kg(250000.0),
);
let (inlet_conn, outlet_conn) = inlet.connect(outlet).unwrap();
// Modify outlet pressure after connection
let mut outlet_conn = outlet_conn;
outlet_conn.set_pressure(Pressure::from_bar(3.5));
ExpansionValve {
port_inlet: inlet_conn,
port_outlet: outlet_conn,
operational_state: OperationalState::On,
opening: Some(1.0),
fluid_id: FluidId::new("R134a"),
_state: PhantomData,
}
}
#[test]
fn test_isenthalpic_expansion() {
let valve = create_test_valve();
// h_out should equal h_in
assert_relative_eq!(
valve.port_inlet.enthalpy().to_joules_per_kg(),
valve.port_outlet.enthalpy().to_joules_per_kg(),
epsilon = 1e-10
);
}
}
```
### Project Structure Notes
**Alignment with Unified Structure:**
- Located in `crates/components/src/expansion_valve.rs` per architecture.md
- Uses NewType pattern from Story 1.2 (Pressure, Enthalpy, MassFlow)
- Uses Port system from Story 1.3 (Type-State pattern)
- Uses OperationalState from Story 1.7 (ON/OFF/BYPASS)
- Implements Component trait from Story 1.1
**Inter-crate Dependencies:**
```
core (types: Pressure, Enthalpy, MassFlow)
components → core (uses types)
solver → components (uses Component trait)
```

### Previous Story Intelligence
**From Story 1-4 (Compressor):**
- Type-State pattern with `Compressor<Disconnected>``Compressor<Connected>`
- `Compressor::new()` constructor for disconnected state
- `get_ports()` returns slice of connected ports
- `compute_residuals()` and `jacobian_entries()` implementation
- Comprehensive unit tests with approx::assert_relative_eq
**From Story 1-5 (Heat Exchanger):**
- Strategy Pattern for pluggable models (not needed for valve)
- OperationalState integration (ON/OFF/BYPASS)
- Component trait with n_equations() returning residual count
- Test patterns with FluidState helpers
**From Story 1-3 (Port):**
- Port<Disconnected> and Port<Connected> types
- `connect()` method with validation
- Independent value tracking after connection
- Pressure/enthalpy tolerance constants
### Common Pitfalls to Avoid
- ❌ Forgetting enthalpy conservation (isenthalpic process)
- ❌ Not handling OFF/BYPASS states correctly
- ❌ Using bare f64 for physical quantities
- ❌ Using unwrap/expect in production code
- ❌ Forgetting to validate opening parameter bounds
- ❌ Breaking Component trait object safety
