Which outcome occurs from oil accumulation on the evaporator coil during heat pump operation?

💡 Explanation

When oil accumulates on the evaporator coil, it acts as an insulating layer because oil has lower thermal conductivity than the coil material, reducing heat transfer efficiency. Therefore, reduced heat transfer results, rather than increased temp, subcooling, or efficiency, which would require an unimpeded heat transfer surface.
