Car Air Conditioning in Adelaide can be intimidating if you are using it without elementary knowledge on exactly what is happening inside the system. We are writing this article to give some insight into the functioning of your car’s AC system, and hopefully help you in diagnosing and repair your AC system. Firstly let us know about the refrigerant (r134a) which was specifically created for the automotive industry in the late 1980’s which is slightly different than home or commercial refrigerant applications.
Refrigerant used in Car Air Conditioning in Adelaide consists of a combination of part fluid & part gas, which is held under pressure inside the system. If the system is not running, the refrigerant remains as the gas under low pressure, about 70 psi. The typical characteristics of this gas are its ability to convert itself from compressed hot gas and cool down in the condenser located right in front of the radiator. It transforms into a warm high-pressure liquid which is released through the orifice tube. The high pressure liquid instantly transforms to a low pressure gas vapor at 35 psi at 32° F, which cool the evaporator. The blower motor then passes cool air into the ventilation system and the interior of your car.
This entire action of the refrigerant used in Car Air Conditioning in Adelaide is a high pressure liquid, which is released as a low pressure gas. If you take a can of spray and then release the material inside, then you can feel that can cool down immediately. This is the exact situation that happens inside the air conditioner. The only exception is that the gas can be recovered by the evaporator and is recycled back into the system. Evaporator core looks like a small radiator located inside the car. Once the refrigerant spends its cool charge, it is gathered into the lower side of the hose and onto the compressor where it’s processed again.
