← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when a refrigeration system using R-134a develops a leak at the evaporator coil?
A)Compressor overheating due to increased load
B)Reduced cooling from decreased mass flow✓
C)Ice formation on expansion valve exterior
D)Increased energy efficiency from lower pressure
💡 Explanation
When a refrigerant leak occurs at the evaporator coil, decreased mass flow results because the system loses refrigerant, which carries heat. Therefore, reduced cooling happens, rather than overheating or ice formation, requires other types of malfunction or higher pressures instead of a reducing one.
