What does the condenser on a car engine do?
"ITS PART OF THE COOLING SYSTEM?? " That is what the part is, not what it does. The Condenser, condenses the refrigerant while releasing heat that was in the car. Allowing the system to cool the inside of the car.
If an R 12 refrigeration system has its air cooled condensing unit on a 100F roof and the condenser outlet temperature refrigerant is 115F with how much sub cooling is the condenser operating?
15
What does refrigerant compatibility mean not what it is?
Refrigerant compaticilty is about suiting the refrigerant to your refrigerant system. Every cooling system has refrigerant in it which depends on the type of system you use. If the refrigerant not matches with your system, it wont work. This is refrigerant compatibility.
You have air condtioner on drive hit the brake and air get hot?
Air conditioning relies largely on the ram air effect. As it circulates through the system, the refrigerant becomes superheated and cooled at various points in the air conditioning system, and will change states from a vapor to a liquid. From the compressor, the refrigerant comes out as a high pressure vapor, and enters the condenser. The condenser is essentially a heat exchanger, which requires the refrigerant to be hotter than the ambient air temperature outside. When a vehicle suddenly decelerates, the cooling effects of the ram air effect are reduced, and heat exchange isn't conducted as efficiently as when the vehicle is in motion.
What does the condenser the refrigerant does?
The condenser is a coil in a refrigeration system. It is on the low pressure side and is exposed to ambient air temp. The refrigerant goes through that and is cooled off and is then sent to the compressor.
Remove ac condenser on 1996 maxima?
* Have the refrigerant discharged and recycled by an air condition technician * Disconnect the negative battery cable and drain the cooling system * Disconnect the condenser line and discharge line from the condenser.Cap the fittings on the conderser * Remove the radiator * Remove the condenser retaining bolts * Lean the condenser back toward the engine and remove it from the car
How does the car ac work?
Air conditioning is run using a cooling system. You place anti-freeze in the motor. INCORRECT! An air conditioning system is independent on the vehicle's cooling system, save for example, a vehicle with a serpentine drive system, where the same belt runs the cooling system and is also used to run the AC compressor. Refrigerant in the AC system is pressurised, and, depending on which part of the system it is in, will either be in vapor or liquid form. There are two sides to any AC system - high pressure side and low pressure side. The high pressure side extends from the condenser outlet to the metering device inlet (which will either be a Fixed Orifice Tube or a Thermal Expansion Valve). As refrigerant moves through the compressor, it becomes a high pressure vapor. It then goes to the condenser, where the heat of the refrigerant is exchanged to the air which flows through the condenser. It is important for the AC system to function that this vapor is hotter than the ambient air going through the condenser. The other essential part in how an AC system functions is the evaporator coil. Heated air and humidity is drawn from the passenger cabin and the heat is exchanged to the refrigerant in the evaporator, which in turn transforms the refrigerant from being in a low pressure liquid state to being in a low pressure vapor state.
Where does refrigerant go after it leaves the purge unit of a low-pressure Centrifugal system?
condenser
How much refrigerant does a air conditioner condenser use?
The refrigerant is for the entire air conditioner system not just for the condenser units. First, this question is not specific! There is whole bunch air conditioner condenser. Each manufacture design different condenser capacity. I might come back to this question.
What role does a compessor play in a refrigeration system?
In vapour compressor refrigeration system the low pressure and temperature vapour refrigerant from evaporator is compressed. where it is compressed to a high pressure and temperature. From compressor refrigerant goes to condenser where where it changes the phase. from condenser refrigerant goes to evaporator through expansion device.
A refrigerant in a cooling system cools the surrounding air?
as it condenes
What are the wiring instructions for a condenser on a 2001 Dodge Grand Caravan?
I have never heard of any wiring to a condenser on any car. The condenser carries the refrigerant in an air conditioner system.
