Which outcome occurs when ethylene glycol overheats within a solar thermal collector panel?

💡 Explanation

When ethylene glycol overheat within a solar panel, the increased temperature causes the fluid to vaporize (phase transition), forming gas bubbles which introduce thermal resistance that impede conductive/convective heat transfer. Therefore bubbling decreases effectivity, rather than darkening, expanding, or metal fatigue, which involve slower degradation mechanisms.
