What is the fuel consumption when running the air conditioning while the car is stationary?
1 Answers
When the car is stationary with the air conditioning on, the fuel consumption is approximately 1-2 liters per hour. Definition of Idle: Stationary state refers to idle. The idle speed of a car is a working condition where the engine runs without load, meaning the car is in neutral or P gear. The engine speed during idle is called the idle speed, which can be adjusted by modifying the throttle opening. Hazards of Running the Air Conditioning at Idle: When the car is stationary, the air conditioning only delivers natural air blown by the blower. This is because the air conditioning compressor is driven by the engine, so it doesn't work when the engine is off. The blower, powered by the battery, consumes too much electricity, which can lead to long-term battery depletion.
