Should You Turn Off the Air Conditioner When Exiting the Car?
1 Answers
When the car's air conditioner is not in use, whether you are exiting the vehicle or remaining inside, it is essential to turn it off promptly. Below is an introduction to automotive air conditioning systems: Air Conditioning Layout: Different types of air conditioning systems have varying layouts. Currently, most passenger cars widely adopt integrated heating and cooling air conditioning systems. The layout typically involves assembling components such as the evaporator, heater core, centrifugal blower, and control mechanisms into a single unit, referred to as the air conditioning assembly. Air Conditioning Components: Modern air conditioning systems consist of a refrigeration system, heating system, ventilation and air purification devices, and a control system. Automotive air conditioning systems generally include components such as the compressor, electronically controlled clutch, condenser, evaporator, expansion valve, receiver-drier, piping, condenser fan, vacuum solenoid valve, idle speed controller, and control system. The automotive air conditioning system is divided into high-pressure and low-pressure lines. The high-pressure side includes the compressor output side, high-pressure lines, condenser, receiver-drier, and liquid lines; the low-pressure side includes the evaporator, accumulator, suction lines, compressor input side, and compressor oil sump.
