← TechnologyWhich consequence results when liquid enters a scroll compressor?
A)Reduced volumetric efficiency occurs✓
B)Valve plate damage is increased
C)Bearing overheating begins rapidly
D)Rotor end-play values decrease
💡 Explanation
Reduced volumetric efficiency occurs because liquid is nearly incompressible, and the mechanism is liquid floodback into the pumping chambers. The scroll cannot compress the liquid; therefore, less vapor is processed, rather than damaging solid components right away.
