Is the AC in the car for cooling or heating?
1 Answers
Car air conditioning AC is for cooling. Here are the relevant details: 1. AC switch: The cooling function of car air conditioning is controlled by the AC switch on the air conditioning control panel. When the air conditioning is turned on and the AC switch is engaged, the compressor's electromagnetic clutch engages, and the compressor starts working. 2. Compressor: The compressor sends high-temperature, high-pressure gas to the condenser at the front of the car, where it dissipates heat to the air and condenses into a high-pressure liquid. After passing through the receiver-drier for filtration and drying, it reaches the expansion valve, where it is throttled and depressurized into a low-pressure gas. Finally, it reaches the evaporator inside the car cabin, where it evaporates and absorbs heat, thereby achieving cooling.
