Technology

Which consequence results when refrigerant subcooling is lost prior to the compressor's scroll pump in an HVAC system?

A)Suction line flash vaporization rises
B)Condenser phase changes significantly speed
C)Compression ratios proportionately diminish
D)Discharge pressure drops substantially too

💡 Explanation

Increased bubbles entering the compressor scroll reduce volumetric efficiency because vapor occupies space meant for liquid; cavitation can result. Therefore, suction line flash vaporization rises, rather than efficient compression, impairing cooling system performance and lifecycle.
