← TechnologyWhich effect arises when heat load exceeds a refrigeration system's evaporator capacity?
A)Compressor motor winding insulation breakdown
B)Refrigerant flood-back causing compressor damage✓
C)Condenser coil fin corrosion acceleration
D)Expansion valve orifice blockage from ice formation
💡 Explanation
When evaporator capacity is exceeded, refrigerant boiling rate increases beyond its design point because higher overall temperature leads to insufficient heat removal, allowing liquid refrigerant to return to the compressor. Therefore, refrigerant flood-back occurs resulting in damage, instead of other failure modes requiring different primary mechanisms.
