← TechnologyWhich limitation is imposed inside refrigeration scroll compressors exhibiting extensive vapor re-expansion?
A)Reduced volumetric efficiency occurs✓
B)Increased lubricant oil viscosity
C)Elevated condenser pressure results
D)Decreased superheat within evaporator
💡 Explanation
Volumetric efficiency decreases with vapor re-expansion because clearance volume increases during the cycle stages due to the Internal Leakage mechanism. Therefore, a reduced amount of refrigerant is compressed, rather than performing ideal compression with isentropic process or increasing the oil viscosity.
