Which consequence results when refrigerant experiences flashing during adiabatic expansion?

💡 Explanation

Flashing results in a two-phase mixture pre-evaporator, leading to a reduced capacity for heat absorption in the cooling coil because the energy is used for vaporization, rather than to cool; therefore cooling suffers rather than improved subcooling.
