Which outcome results when refrigerant leaks from a scroll chiller, allowing air to enter during phase change?

💡 Explanation

When refrigerant leaks, non-condensable air enters, raising the partial pressure and hindering efficient phase changes due to forming thermal boundary layers across heat exchanger, reducing overall capacity. Therefore heat transfer efficiency decreases, rather than higher discharge, freezing, or oil issues, which come from other faults.
