← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs prematurely in a chiller using liquid refrigerant when evaporator load is substantially reduced?
A)Compressor surging and mechanical failure✓
B)Complete refrigerant vaporisation and superheating
C)Formation of ice alongside exterior surfaces
D)Decreased volumetric efficiency across bearings
💡 Explanation
Compressor surging occurs because reduced evaporator load decreases refrigerant vaporisation; therefore, liquid enters the compressor causing damage, rather than reaching optimal operational parameters, leading to mechanical problems from inefficient compression.
