← ScienceWhich heat transfer limitation causes reduced liquefaction during a cryogenic refrigeration cycle?
A)Insufficient adiabatic expansion efficiency✓
B)Cycle working fluid thermal breakdown
C)Improper insulation reduces cooling load'
D)Condenser subcooling capacity restriction
💡 Explanation
Reduced liquefaction occurs because insufficient adiabatic expansion efficiency results in less cooling; the temperature decrease is limited by irreversible processes, therefore liquefaction is hindered, rather than other limitations like lack of thermal stability becoming dominant.
