← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when an evaporator core ices over in a refrigeration system with fixed orifice metering?
A)Compressor motor winding overheating✓
B)Refrigerant floodback to compressor
C)Increased system superheat levels
D)Stable expansion valve operation
💡 Explanation
Compressor overheating leads eventually occurs because ice reduces evaporation, dropping suction pressure. Consequently the compressor's mass flow decreases. Therefore, the motor works harder, and refrigerant isn't available to cool the motor windings, rather than providing stable expansion.
