← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when an evaporator's TXV malfunctions?
A)Ice forms on the evaporator✓
B)Compressor efficiency exponentially increases
C)Superheat remains at a zero value
D)Condenser pressure decreases significantly
💡 Explanation
Ice forms because thermal expansion valve (TXV) failure invokes restricted refrigerant flow, therefore causing evaporator coil temperatures to plummet, rather than allow normal heat exchange; ice restricts airflow.
