When designing a vehicle, pipelines are reserved to collect and drain condensation water. Generally, the outlet leading outside the car is located directly below the center of the dashboard. If you look underneath the car, it's usually at the front of the transmission. Here are some related details: 1. Impact: When the air conditioning is cooling, the temperature of the evaporator and the air ducts leading to the passenger compartment is very low, typically around 0 to 5 degrees Celsius. The water vapor in the outside air will condense and liquefy on the walls of the air conditioning pipes and the surface of the evaporator at such low temperatures. If there is no way to drain this water, it can cause moisture around the air conditioning system (inside the dashboard) and corrosion of components. 2. Water vapor liquefaction: Therefore, in summer, if you start the engine, turn on the air conditioning, and leave the car parked for a while before driving away, you will often see a puddle of water on the ground. This puddle is actually the result of water vapor in the air condensing due to the cold, which is a normal phenomenon.
