🔍 Key Concepts

• Behavior of direct expansion refrigeration evaporator coils • Effect of frost/ice buildup on heat transfer and coil performance • Normal method used on ships for defrosting evaporator coils

💭 Think About

• Think about whether frost on the outside of the coil helps or hurts heat transfer between the air and the refrigerant. • Consider what happens to refrigerant temperature and superheat when the coil surface becomes insulated by frost. • Ask yourself what common defrost methods are actually installed and used on marine refrigeration systems.

✅ Before You Answer

• Does frost act more like an insulator or a good conductor on the coil surface? • Is simply stopping refrigerant flow through a cold coil likely to melt or keep the frost/ice? • Is there a standard practice involving hot gas/vapor defrost on multi-box, direct expansion systems?

Question 1 of 20

Concerning frost appearing on one set of evaporator coils of a multi-box, direct expansion type refrigeration system, what is true?

the frost will increase the value of superheat to the fluid leaving the coils

the frost can be quickly removed by simply shutting off fluid flow to the coils

the frost can be removed by passing hot vapors through the coils

the frost will assist in increasing the refrigeration effect
