Which effect occurs in refrigeration systems when refrigerant lines experience localized kinking?

A)Reduced system cooling capacity
B)Increased compressor power draw
C)Elevated evaporator superheat
D)Stable refrigeration cycle efficiency

💡 Explanation

Localized kinking constricts refrigerant flow, causing a pressure drop due to increased flow velocity via the Venturi effect; because less refrigerant circulates, less heat is absorbed in the evaporator, therefore, reducing cooling more than the alternative compressor load and less than changed cycle dynamics.
