← TechnologyWhich limitation surfaces due to oil fouling within an evaporator during refrigeration?
A)Reduced heat transfer efficiency✓
B)Increased refrigerant subcooling rate
C)Elevated flash gas generation
D)Accelerated compressor valve wear
💡 Explanation
Reduced heat transfer efficiency occurs because oil fouling introduces thermal resistance. The increased resistance acts via **conduction impedance**, hindering efficient heat exchange, therefore reduces capacity, rather than increasing cooling or affecting flash gas/compressor components directly.
