← ScienceWhich outcome occurs on a refrigerator exposed limit when undergoing rapid cooling?
A)Icing increases energy consumption substantially✓
B)Refrigerant pressure reaches critical threshold
C)Compressor motor windings experience overheating
D)Coolant viscosity sharply decreases minimum
💡 Explanation
Icing increases energy consumption substantially, because during rapid cooling, increased water condensation freezes on the evaporator coils impacting the heat transfer rate; this is a change in phase via deposition, therefore increased compressor action is needed, rather than different outcomes like pressure changes which are secondary.
