🔍 Key Concepts

• Refrigeration cycle and the role of the compressor suction line • Difference between liquid refrigerant and vapor (gas) refrigerant conditions at the compressor inlet • Meaning of terms like superheat and how they relate to the evaporator outlet and suction line

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: At the compressor suction, under normal operation, should the refrigerant be mostly liquid or mostly vapor, and why? • Which of these answer choices describes an abnormal condition where liquid is getting into a part of the system designed to handle vapor only? • Think about where in the cycle the term superheating is usually applied and whether that involves liquid or vapor at the compressor inlet.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which term in the options is commonly used in refrigeration to describe liquid refrigerant returning to the compressor. • Eliminate any choices that obviously refer to normal operation instead of a fault or abnormal condition. • Confirm whether superheating refers to adding heat to a vapor above its boiling point, or to liquid entering the compressor.
