Where is the car condenser located?

Car condensers are located at the front of the vehicle alongside the radiator, which facilitates heat dissipation through airflow during driving. The condenser is a component of the refrigeration system and a type of heat exchanger that converts gas or vapor into liquid, rapidly transferring heat from the tubes to the surrounding air. The condenser's operation involves a heat release process, resulting in typically high temperatures. Generally, the refrigeration principle of a refrigerator involves the compressor compressing the working medium from low-temperature, low-pressure gas to high-temperature, high-pressure gas, which is then condensed by the condenser into medium-temperature, high-pressure liquid. After passing through the throttle valve, it becomes low-temperature, low-pressure liquid. This low-temperature, low-pressure liquid working medium is then sent to the evaporator, where it absorbs heat and evaporates into low-temperature, low-pressure vapor, which is then transported back to the compressor, completing the refrigeration cycle.
