A transaction log file is opened after a hard commit and it stays open until a new hard commit is issued. Old tlogs are deleted, but always with the premise of keeping enough updates "lines" of tlog to allow peer-sync (currently, hardcoded to 100 updates). The recovery is made using the last tlog (docs updated after the last hard commit). See http://find.searchhub.org/document/29b62a0dcf50ae9e
If you are using tlog you should make sure you do hard commits, otherwise the tlog grows too much and you will run OOM.
