I would like to ask everyone for guidance on the calculation for selecting a fluid reservoir

The image above is taken from a reference book. Example: Refrigerant R22, Refcomp compressor SW-3L8000; condensation temperature 40°C, evaporation temperature -40°C, suction superheat of 10 K, liquid subcooling of 5 K. According to the software, the specific volume of R22 liquid at 40°C is 0.000886 m3/kg, and the refrigerant flow rate is 1019.8 kg/h. Taking the volume coefficient of the reservoir to be a minimum of 0.5, the volume V of the reservoir is calculated as V = mφv/β = 1019.8*0.5*0.000886/0.7 = 0.6454839 m3 = 645.4839 L. In actual manufacturing, the value is much lower than this; it’s not clear why Another thing that’s unclear is why an hourly refrigerant circulation rate is needed
Was it sent to the wrong place? Why isn’t there any response?:'(
