I find it amazing how many things are stuffed inside a car. Engine itself, transmissions, compressor, radiator, batteries, electric motor for starting, alternator for electricity production, radiators, brake enhancers, differentials, torque convertor and many other things. All have to work in tandem and they often do for decades without fail.

In a very similar fashion, the AC system or split system heat pumps work for cooling or heating your homes. As a mech engineer, it's nice to see how it is implemented in cars. 😊
In a tropical country, installing a larger condenser can indeed help your AC system work more efficiently. A bigger condenser has more surface area to release heat, allowing the system to cool the refrigerant more effectively and potentially improve cooling performance and efficiency, especially in high ambient temperatures. However, it’s important to ensure the rest of the AC system is compatible with the change, as mismatched components could lead to inefficiencies or strain on other parts. I’d recommend consulting a professional to confirm the best solution for your vehicle.
Thank you so much, but What is connection between AC and temperature mode? My understand is AC only helps to clean and dehumidify the cabin air and the temperature must be the job of temperature mode ?
The AC system in a car does more than just clean and dehumidify the air-it actively cools the cabin by removing heat through the refrigeration cycle. When you set a lower temperature, the system uses the AC compressor to reduce the air temperature. The temperature mode setting then mixes this cooled air with outside or heater core-warmed air to reach your desired cabin temperature. So, while the AC is responsible for cooling and dehumidifying, the temperature mode controls how much of that cooled air, or potentially warmed air, is mixed to achieve your set cabin temperature. I hope this clears up the connection between the two systems!
@coldbrew6104 they don't. I just recently charged a customer $1900 to replaced the HVAC module. The entire system was perfect but the computer was dead. That doesn't happen on older models. And that computer was behind the dashboard BTW, I'm in Texas where yesterday the temperature was 111 degrees.
If receiver dryer helps to catch the remaining compressed high temperature gas from the liquid but after going through the expansion valve that same gas is generated back again,even though cool at this time, my question is: why don't allow the gas to go through the expansion valve without using the receiver dryer?
it's true that after going through the expansion valve, the refrigerant turns back into a low-pressure gas, the receiver dryer has an important job to do beforehand. The receiver dryer contains a desiccant that removes any moisture in the refrigerant. Even tiny amounts of moisture can freeze at the expansion valve, causing blockages or damage to the AC system. Without the receiver dryer, there’s a risk that ice could form in the system, reducing cooling performance or even causing serious damage.
very informative and easily understandable. I have a Hyndai Xcent 2014 petrol model and it has a bad AC system and it stops chilling after 50kms drive and from thereon it will be just like a air cooler instead of air conditioning. I have replaced new evaporator and new cooling coil in service center but still same problem. When enquired with a local general car service center they have advised me to replace compressor and problem shall be solved it seems. I am tired. can you suggest me like in general what might be the problem?
Yes, The AC compressor may be the real culprit here. But I can answer only if you tell me all the symptoms that happened to your car. Does the AC provide good cooling in the morning and at night? Is this problem only when the afternoon is very sunny? And how many kilometers your car has run so far?
@@motoringmasters The AC runs without chill most of the time (just blows air like a cooler mostly. There is no chill in automatic also when temperature is 16 degrees and recycle mode). I have checked both in auto and manual mode but same problem persists 😢. In all this 11 years of time the car run around 35k km.
sorry for the delay! If the compressor isn’t pumping refrigerant effectively-maybe due to a mechanical issue, electrical problem, or low refrigerant levels-the AC won’t be able to cool the air properly, resulting in just blowing room-temperature air or only slightly cooled air. I’d suggest checking if the compressor is engaging when you turn on the AC. You should hear a click and see the AC clutch engage. however, If the compressor runs properly and the clutch engages properly, it also may get the bad pistons and not pump the refrigerant properly. In my experience, the compressor is usually the problem.
Red alert check your cabin filter and just above it where mice build nest,, and there is mice feces disgusting or even a chipmunk,, and you are breathing it every time you have your air on. You must mouse proof your air flow in the cabin of your vehicles!!! Pop your glove box wide open and you can get to it, to check the filter and the area just above it,, there's usually a big enough place up in there that a mouse can build a real nice nest, so disgusting you're breathing that air. I'm going to feed some metal wire up into that space and loopy loop fashion, and fill in it in so they are not comfortable to linger or build a nest. Also I'm going to find any other areas where they can get into it and screen it off!!!!! Each vehicle will have a different air circulation system within the cabin.
@@Max-JetYea you’ll need open your car windows for a while, perhaps spray some air freshener spray. And vacuum your carpets and use wipes on all hard surfaces that may have trapped some smell. I had a bad smell in my car from the previous owner and I did this along with scrubbing and washing the floor mats outside. My car smells pretty fresh now.
Ideally, the AC system is a closed loop, so it shouldn't need regular refilling. However, over time, small leaks or natural seepage can lead to a loss of refrigerant, reducing the AC's effectiveness. If you notice a decline in cooling performance, it may be time for an inspection and possible refill. Regular maintenance checks can help ensure your AC system remains efficient.
Vary informative video well explained 🎉 I have a question, what hapend when we set temperature to cold or hot in manual ac systems dose it affect car fuel consumption and how we get better mileage with ac on ? Thank you
Technically, in the engine side when the AC is turned off, the mileage is high, but practically, when the car comes and drives on the road, the mileage drops due to aerodynamic block when windows are opened. using AC can increase your fuel consumption by as much as 10% but opening the windows at higher speeds can increase fuel consumption by as much as 20%
2014 Mustang, outlet temp in the cabin will drop to 40F or lower, then warm up at the same time the air flow is reduced. Turn the AC off for about 5 minutes and all is OK again for awhile. Seems like the Evaporator is freezing up and blocking airflow. Several components (including thermal expansion valve) have been replaced, but so far, No Joy. Any ideas on causes and repairs? Car has been to 2 different shops so far and both have given up.
The only problem here is the way condenser is illustrated will make people confuse it with radiator. U show a huge condenser right in front of the engine.
Thanks for pointing that out! I can see how the illustration might lead to some confusion, but I'll make sure to clarify the differences in future videos.
Air flow is controlled by a series of dampers, flaps, and shutters that are operated either manually or automatically. In old vehicles, you manually operate knobs or levers that are connected to cables or vacuum lines. These, in turn, move the dampers to direct airflow. Modern vehicles use an electronic control unit that adjusts the position of the dampers based on inputs from the user and sensors. The user sets the desired temperature and airflow distribution via the control panel, and the ECU adjusts the dampers accordingly.
In idle, the engine runs at a lower RPM, which means the compressor operates at a lower speed. condenser fan is typically the only means of dissipating heat from the AC system. but this is not as effective as the airflow generated when the vehicle is moving. As a result, the AC system might struggle to cool the cabin as efficiently when the vehicle is stationary. This can cause the AC to take longer but not harder to reach the desired temperature.
At idle, especially in very hot conditions, the AC may struggle to cool the cabin quickly because the compressor is running at a lower speed. Once you start driving and the RPM increases, the AC system can perform better. and Beyond a certain point, further increases in RPM won't significantly improve cooling.
@@motoringmasters thanks for the explanation. You learn something everyday. I've seen the engine rpm increase when idling with ac just turned on. Could be the ECU doing it to workout that ac
Yes, that's correct. The ECU often increases the engine RPM slightly when the AC is turned on to compensate for the additional load the AC compressor puts on the engine. And also the oil pump circulates engine oil more efficiently, This improved circulation helps ensure that all engine components are adequately lubricated, It's a smart way to keep the engine running smoothly!
Air conditioning system, transmission, engine ..these are alien technology. There's no way human can accomplish this in such short amount of time (100 years maybe?)
Still the world does not know how to deal with this problem 😁 However, I have some solutions, you can try it. Place a fine wire mesh or screen over the air intake vents to prevent rodents from entering. Make sure it is securely fastened and doesn't restrict airflow. Keep your car's engine compartment clean and free of debris.
TELL ME is it normal to drive with ac on LO and the ventilator on 2 bars , instead of putting it on automatic and just normalize the temperature slightly lower than the outside , can someone answer please
@@motoringmasters thanks for reply ! I think your video is the most logical on youtube !! , i see so many car enthousiasts with ac on LO and window open and clearly see a automatic button
Yes, that's correct! I explained this simply in the video-systems with an orifice tube use an accumulator, while those with a Thermal expansion valve use a receiver-drier. Thanks for watching and sharing your input!
Iam 14 and Iam a car enthusiast and I often help my dad with his car because he doesn't know we'll about cars sometimes I tell him to change this and such and such he doesn't do it😂
Heating is very basic. Heater core is located in HVAC box. The heater core receives hot coolant from heater hoses (plumbed to the radiator of the vehicle). It uses blend door motors to close off this heating circuit when the ac is selected and turns the heat on when it goes the opposite way. This can be fine tuned by selecting desired temperature on climate control so it’s not merely a On/Off motor, it has many positions.
I said the hot gas flows into condenser near the radiator. Condenser is located next to the radiator. Radiator and Condenser looks very similar with a small difference so don't get confused.
@@motoringmasters I get confused because I only have a radiator in front of my car, on the side of it there is a condenser where AC lines go into, the chamber is extended over the top of the radiator (possibly the bottom also) where the line starts again going to the compressor. I assume the chambers take advantage of the airflow going through the radiator and kind of piggy-back on it to cool the gas a bit before it get re-introduced back into the compressor. By no means does it go through the radiator fins like it's shown in the video. It might be different on different cars as in, having another radiator going over the main radiator, but idk, haven't seen one yet. edit: At this point I assume that in your video you are working with two radiators, the engine one and another one over it for the gas. I have no such thing in my car. As I stated, one radiator. Perhaps that's why this was confusing to me. Thank you for replying by the way.
In my video, I have shown only the condenser. What you are talking about is a radiator. I am not talking about water and radiator in this video. Please go back to this video and see it clearly.😟
I have a Ford Fiesta 2014, sometimes in high temperatures (i say that cause of the dash shows the temp) when is marked 28° to 34°, If the ac is on, the car will stall nonstop, i never seen this before, so weird and anoying.
from AC side it could be AC Compressor problem or other pulleys(Alternator or Power steering pump) which is connected to the Compressor via a belt. Also check the Refrigerant level. other than that, it could be throttle body, injector or fuel pump. There may be problem with any of these parts in your car, a mechanic can easily find it out, better take it to a good mechanic and get it checked.
a failing compressor could send metal shavings into the system, which could damage other components. If debris or moisture gets into the AC system, it can cause damage to multiple parts such as the compressor, expansion valve, or evaporator over time. While it's uncommon for all parts to go bad at once, regular maintenance can help catch issues early and prevent a chain reaction of failures.
@@motoringmasters Thanks ... Just pretty much had to get everything replaced, in my Mazda 3. But the company turned out to a poor in diagnostic. If they would have told me from the beginning how much it cost to replace everything I would have said no and sold the car to somebody in Alaska.

How the airflow is controlled through the vents? i mean between dashboard and floor and to the front glass?
Air flow is controlled by a series of dampers, flaps, and shutters that are operated either manually or automatically.

I just had to replace the compressor on my 2008 BMW to the tune of $1,400...my mechanic said it was a bear to get to.....its only money, right?!
So in high RPMs the AC works faster?
At idle, especially in very hot conditions, the AC may struggle to cool the cabin quickly because the compressor is running at a lower speed. Once you start driving and the RPM increases, the AC system can perform better.
and Beyond a certain point, further increases in RPM won't significantly improve cooling.

where is thermostat located?
It's attached to the evaporador coil, it's a temperature sensor
Air conditioning system, transmission, engine ..these are alien technology. There's no way human can accomplish this in such short amount of time (100 years maybe?)
When the AC is on, does it use fuel?⛽️
Yup, cuz the compressor uses mechanical energy from the engine thus increasing it's load thus increasing fuel consumption
i got a F-150 2018 XLT 120k milles and my AC is not cooling until it reach exactly 40 mph anyone know why ?
may be AC Compressor or Thermostat Valve or Radiator Fan.
What if accidentally liquid goes into compressor?
Don't worry refrigerant that we used for HVAC system can easily evaporates in our ambient air temperature.

What are the odds that all of the car ac parts go bad at the same?
a failing compressor could send metal shavings into the system, which could damage other components. If debris or moisture gets into the AC system, it can cause damage to multiple parts such as the compressor, expansion valve, or evaporator over time.
While it's uncommon for all parts to go bad at once, regular maintenance can help catch issues early and prevent a chain reaction of failures.
@@motoringmasters Thanks ... Just pretty much had to get everything replaced, in my Mazda 3. But the company turned out to a poor in diagnostic. If they would have told me from the beginning how much it cost to replace everything I would have said no and sold the car to somebody in Alaska.
I thought the air conditioner was a radiator for the engine😭
