Which outcome occurs when a heat pump operates with superheated refrigerant?

A)Decreased condenser heat transfer rate
B)Increased compressor motor lifespan
C)Enhanced evaporator coil icing
D)Higher Coefficient of Performance (COP)

💡 Explanation

Decreased condenser heat transfer occurs because superheated refrigerant requires sensible heat removal prior to condensation, thus reducing the isothermal phase change and efficiency within the cycle, therefore reducing heat transfer rate rather than enhancing performance.
