← TechnologyWithin a chiller system, which outcome occurs when refrigerant overcharge surpasses thermal expansion valve (TXV) capacity?
A)Compressor slugging with liquid refrigerant✓
B)Evaporator coil freeze due to airflow
C)Superheat diminishes within evaporator coil
D)Condenser subcooling becomes abnormally decreased
💡 Explanation
Compressor slugging results because excessive refrigerant floods that returning suction line via the TXV, causing liquid backflow instead of vapor; therefore, slugging happens, rather than optimal performance needing expansion, if expansion capacity limit reached.
