How much does using air conditioning increase fuel consumption per 100 kilometers?
1 Answers
Under normal circumstances, the car air conditioning consumes about 20% of the engine's power. This means that for a car with an average fuel consumption of 10 liters per 100 kilometers, using the air conditioning will increase fuel consumption by approximately 2 liters. Additional information about car air conditioning is as follows: 1. Introduction: The car air conditioning system, abbreviated as car AC, is used to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and airflow inside the car cabin to optimal conditions. It provides a comfortable environment for passengers, reduces travel fatigue, and creates good working conditions for the driver, playing a crucial role in ensuring safe driving. 2. AC Layout: Different types of AC systems have different layout methods. Currently, the most widely used in passenger cars is the integrated heating and cooling AC system. Its layout involves assembling components such as the evaporator, heater core, centrifugal blower, and control mechanism together, known as the AC unit assembly.
