As I understand this issue, when filling a cylinder the air is being compressed which creates tremendous friction ergo heat but when the air is released the air is expanding at a high rate without the friction. It is the same thing with a propane tank as the propane is release the valve will frost over. I think this may be over simplifying the process but its the easiest way I know to explain it.
