Operation: How car air conditioning works

The operation of the air conditioning takes advantage of the change of state from liquid to gaseous which occurs in the air conditioning system; the plant is in fact constituted by a compressor which compresses the gas to such an extent that it becomes liquid and due to the effect of the compression itself the liquid tends to heat up so that it is passed through a first radiator (condenser) cooled by a fan; subsequently the liquid passes through a filter that removes any condensation and then reaches the expansion valve: it is precisely the expansion that allows the liquid under pressure to become gaseous and during this transition the temperature drops considerably; the cold gas passes into the internal radiator (evaporator) cooling the surrounding air which is then channeled into the passenger compartment through the internal fan.
