← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when a capillary tube refrigerant metering device encounters subcooling?
A)Decreased system cooling capacity✓
B)Increased evaporator superheat
C)Compressor motor overheating
D)Excessive condenser pressure drop
💡 Explanation
Decreased system cooling outcomes occur from liquid “Flash-gas” production prior to the evaporator. This flash-gas formation reduces the refrigerant subcooling’s Latent Heat Absorption characteristic, because of premature vaporization, therefore lessened cooling results, rather than other compressor motor related risks.
