← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when hot gas bypass valve opens in refrigeration system during low load?
A)Evaporator coil frosting is prevented✓
B)Compressor motor experiences thermal overload
C)Condenser subcooling capacity increases
D)Refrigerant flash gas formation decreases
💡 Explanation
When the hot gas bypass valve opens, hot refrigerant gas bypasses the condenser and flows directly into the evaporator because this maintains a minimum evaporator pressure and temperature, preventing ice formation. Therefore, evaporator coil frosting prevents, rather than motor overload, increased subcooling, flash gas decrease which relate to different control actions.
