Which outcome occurs when a chiller unit loses refrigerant?

💡 Explanation

Icing occurs because refrigerant loss reduces the evaporator pressure; this causes adiabatic cooling and water vapor **deposition**, therefore ice accumulates rather than heat absorption occurring; subcooling would decrease with refrigerant loss.
