← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when thermal load exceeds design capacity in a refrigeration compressor?
A)Refrigerant undergoes phase transition failure
B)Motor overheating and winding insulation breakdown✓
C)Valve plate cracks reduce efficiency
D)Condenser freezes causing blockage
💡 Explanation
Motor overheating and winding insulation breakdown increases when the thermal dissipation design is exceeded because the increased electrical current required to maintain output causes excessive resistive heat generation, therefore damage results rather than refrigerant phase failure, cracks or freezing effects.
