An air-conditioning system using capillary tubes is operating on a 95°F outdoor temperature and an evaporator superheat of 12°F. If water is sprayed on the condenser, what will happen to the superheat and why?

What will be an ideal response?


Superheat will decrease due to reduction in head pressure because of increased condenser capacity from the heat removed from the latent heat pickup of the water.
