Which outcome occurs when a supercritical fluid's pressure decreases at constant enthalpy?

💡 Explanation

Due to the Joule-Thomson effect, a real gas or supercritical fluid experiences a temperature change during throttling because intermolecular forces must be overcome as the fluid expands. Therefore, its temperature changes, rather than immediately undergoing a phase transition which would require an abrupt pressure and temperature change.
