That helps very much. That is crystal clear and concise. I appreciate all the help. Again I'm sorry for my lack of knowledge with the subject, this is just something that I have been wondering for some time now. I appreciate all the help.
Wow okay so there is a seperste heater core used to supply heat. I thought we utilized the heat that is dispersed from the condenser, which is where my misunderstanding came from.
I have seen pictures of what I believe are called hvac "units" that are located behind the glove box, under the...
Again I realize I am not as educated as everyone on here, but this is something I just wanted to understand for my own benefit. In addition, after re-reading my original post, I realize I did not clearly state what exactly I wasn't understanding. Thank you everyone for replying, I really...
@HVACMech you are correct, I thought I had a decent understanding but I guess I do not. I have not had any formal education with this process, just what I can find online. I understand the condenser sheds heat and the evaporator absorbs heat. I guess my real question with this all would be this...
I am unfotunately just not grasping one simple concept. I understand that the air that passes the condenser absorbs the heat from the refrigerant. I do not, however, understand how this heated air is then blown into the cabin, seeing that the condenser is in the very front of the car.
Once the air passes the condenser and absorbs the heat, the refrigerant is then cooled. Is the refrigerant then transported to a hidden coil that air is blown past and into the cabin to provide cool air?
Thank you for the link, it helped me understand the refrigeration cycle better. I am, however, still confused at how the air gets into the cabin and how it comes through the vents to the cabin. If the condenser is in the very front of the car, how does the the air that is heated by passing it...
I am having trouble understanding the hvac system. I have a good understanding of the refrigeration cycle, however, I am confused with the placement of the condenser in a vehicle. If air conditioning is provided by blowing air over a condenser, why is the condenser located in front of the...
