Which outcome occurs when refrigerant maldistribution arises within a multi-circuit evaporator?

A)Reduced cooling capacity and hotspots
B)Compressor oil logging and seizure
C)Increased superheat and expansion valve hunting
D)System over-pressure and component rupture

💡 Explanation

When refrigerant maldistribution occurs, some circuits receive excess refrigerant while others are starved, causing uneven heat transfer because of varying coolant flow rates, thus limiting overall evaporation and causing hotspots due to poor heat removal. Therefore cooling diminishes, rather than oil logging, valve instability or over-pressure which trigger separate chains of events.
