What keeps a compressor from "slugging" right after turn on
I know from reading that it is bad for a compressor to try to compress liquid refrigerant. I also know that when the compressor cycles off, the refrigerant will migrate away from the warm parts of the system and into the colder parts. So during the off part of the cycle the refrigerant will migrate out of the compressor and out of the condenser and tend to condense and collect as liquid in the evaporator. So what happens when the system cycles back on. Why doesn't the liquid that has collected in the evaporator get sucked into the compressor and damage it when the system cycles back on.
The question seems to apply to both automotive and hermetic compressors.
