What is the function of an automotive air conditioning throttle valve?
1 Answers
Throttling device (also known as a throttle valve in refrigeration systems) is a flow device installed within a pipe filled with fluid. The flow stream forms a local contraction at the throttling point, thereby increasing flow velocity and reducing static pressure, which serves the purpose of cooling and pressure reduction. 1. Introduction: Automotive air conditioning refers to the air conditioning equipment installed in vehicles. 2. Function: It can cool, heat, ventilate, and purify the air inside the vehicle compartment, providing a comfortable environment for passengers, reducing driver fatigue, and enhancing driving safety. The air conditioning system has become one of the indicators for measuring whether a vehicle is fully equipped. 3. Components: Generally includes refrigeration units, heating units, and ventilation units. This combined system makes full use of the limited interior space of the vehicle, featuring a simple structure and ease of operation, making it a popular modern automotive air conditioning system internationally.
