← TechnologyWhich outcome happens when heat input greatly exceeds capacity of an absorption chiller's generator?
A)Crystallization of refrigerant solution✓
B)Increased cooling output at evaporator
C)Decreased coefficient of performance (COP)
D)Overheating of the absorber section
💡 Explanation
When excess heat overwhelms the generator, the absorbent concentration rises rapidly because the refrigerant boils off too quickly causing crystallization in the solution circuits. Therefore crystallization happens, rather than increased cooling or absorber overheating, which require balanced heat transfer process or component failure respectively.
