Where does the car air conditioning get its energy from?
1 Answers
There are three types of car air conditioning systems. Details are as follows: 1. Driving air conditioning: This is the most common type installed in most vehicles. Its primary power source comes from the car engine. A V-belt is connected to the engine's power output pulley, linking the transmission, air conditioning system, and alternator - this represents the typical power distribution in small passenger vehicles. 2. Parking air conditioning: Commonly found in recreational vehicles (RVs), this system derives power from the RV's generator, solar energy, wind energy, or most frequently, fuel. 3. Kinetic energy air conditioning: Primarily installed in eco-friendly large buses, this system typically uses power from the vehicle's battery to drive an electric motor, which then operates an oil pump. The hydraulic oil powered by this pump provides kinetic energy to the air conditioning compressor.
