Liquid slugging is the phenomenon of liquid entering the cylinder of a reciprocating compressor, a common cause of failure.[1]
Under normal conditions, the intake and output of a compressor cylinder is entirely vapor or gas, when a liquid accumulates at the suction port liquid slugging can occur. As more of the practically incompressible liquid enters, strain is placed upon the system leading to a variety of failures.[2]
