Car Air Conditioning Compressor Damaged: Repair or Replace?
1 Answers
Air conditioning compressor damage can be repaired. Below are specific explanations regarding repairable car air conditioning compressor damage: 1. Principle: The air conditioning compressor is generally installed in the outdoor unit. It extracts refrigerant from the low-pressure area, compresses it, and delivers it to the high-pressure area for cooling and condensation. Heat is dissipated into the air through heat sinks, and the refrigerant changes from gaseous to liquid state with increased pressure. 2. Function: The working circuit of the air conditioning compressor is divided into an evaporation zone (low-pressure area) and a condensation zone (high-pressure area). The indoor and outdoor units of the air conditioner belong to the low-pressure or high-pressure zones respectively (depending on operating conditions). The refrigerant then flows from the high-pressure zone to the low-pressure zone, being injected into the evaporator through capillary tubes where the pressure drops sharply, causing the liquid refrigerant to immediately vaporize and absorb large amounts of heat from the air via heat sinks. By continuously operating, the air conditioning compressor constantly absorbs heat from the low-pressure end into the refrigerant and transfers it to the high-pressure zone to dissipate into the air, thereby regulating temperature.
