Which outcome occurs when a refrigeration system experiences refrigerant overcharge in a capillary tube system?

A)Increased evaporator superheat
B)Decreased condenser subcooling
C)Liquid floodback to the compressor
D)Reduced compressor discharge temperature

💡 Explanation

When a refrigeration system is overcharged, the excess refrigerant occupies space in the condenser, reducing its ability to condense vapor properly, causing liquid floodback to the compressor due to incomplete evaporation. Therefore, liquid floodback results, not increased superheat, decreased subcooling or lower discharge temp, which stem from different conditions.
