← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when humidity levels exceed evaporator capacity in cascade refrigeration systems?
A)Icing occurs, reducing heat exchange✓
B)Compressor overheating from excessive load
C)Refrigerant subcooling significantly increases
D)Decreased energy coefficient ratio occurs
💡 Explanation
Icing diminishes heat transfer efficiency because the **latent heat of fusion** causes moisture to freeze on the coils blocking airflow; therefore, system performance drops, rather than increasing efficiency because moisture solidifies.
