How does car AC system work

  • The air-conditioning system in a car works by manipulating refrigerant between a liquid and a gaseous state. As the refrigerant changes states, it absorbs heat and humidity from the vehicle and allows the system to give off cool, dry air.

    I really hate that the air conditioner and the engine are linked. I wish cars had it made so that you can turn on the ac compressor without starting the engine. I live in Texas, and it's really inconvenient that I have to waste fuel to cool off in the car.

      I don't think accumulator takes out moisture from the system. That would be the job of the filter drier. The accumulator stores excess refrigerant in the suction area due to overcharge.

      Yes it does - you must use it year-round.
      It has rubber seals all over - & they're kept in good condition by refrigerant flow.
      Not using it long term, allows the seals to dry up & therefore leak.
      Some cars are more susceptible to this than others.
      Some cars with fully automatic climate control, always use the a/c.

    • @rombakrawat86
      @rombakrawat86 Рік тому +7

      the purpose of condenser is to lower the temperature of refrigerant so that it become liquid.. in liquid state it can be spray at expansion valve.. the answer is yes.. it could make your ac cooler.. but at some extent.. the efficiency of ac depend on many factor.. mainly cause of the efficiency of heat exchanger at condenser and evaporator, evaporator usually has thick layer of dust bcause it evaporate and trap water.. so dust stick to it.. so we have to clean it.. and change cabin filter.. it will obstruct air flow

    • @wearemechanics
      @wearemechanics  2 роки тому +5

      Your car's air filter and cabin air filter are both parts of its HVAC system. The air filter removes debris and dirt from the air, preventing them from reaching your engine. A cabin air filter takes the same approach but has been designed to also remove dust and pollen from the air you breathe.

    • @wearemechanics
      @wearemechanics  2 роки тому +3

      In the air recirculation mode, the car's air conditioning system recirculates the air inside the vehicle for cooling. Selecting the fresh air mode brings in outside air into the car by opening an air duct in the front of the vehicle. Both these modes have their advantages and disadvantages.

    • @wearemechanics

      A TXV is essentially a meter. It controls the amount of refrigerant that is released to your air conditioner’s evaporator by dropping the pressure between the liquid in the line and the evaporator.

    Okay so if the AC is still blowing, theres still coolant, no clicking noise, everything normal but no cold air is coming out (1997 Lincoln Town car) what part(s) malfunctioned and needs servicing/replacing?

    • @splashe
      @splashe 4 місяці тому

      If the air is blowing warm when the AC is on that means that the evaporator for one reason or another is not receiving cold coolant. If there are impurities in the system a blockage could exist somewhere in the system, or if the compressor grenaded itself. If you’re not hearing the clutch click when engaging the AC then the clutch is not engaging on the compressor and the compressor itself is not operating. If this is the issue then it could be an issue with the compressor itself or an electrical issue.

      If you are referring to coolant, the coolant flows through the heater core which is a separate component not mentioned here. It works very similarly to the evaporator but reverse. The heater core has hot coolant flowing through it which the blower motor will blow the heat from into the cabin for heat/defrost purposes.
