Automotive Air Conditioning Principals

Front

In a typical system, within which component would the evaporation of refrigerant take place?

Back

Evaporator

Front

Where would you expect to find a high pressure liquid within an AC system? Options: Between the compressor and the Thermal Xpansion Valve, Between the Thermal Xpansion Valve and the Evaporator, Between the compressor and the condenser, Between the Condenser and the Thermal Xpansion Valve

Back

Between the Condenser and the Thermal Xpansion Valve

Front

What does a Thermal Xpansion Valve do?

Back

It controls the quantity of refrigerant entering the evaporator.

Front

If contamination within an air conditioning system is suspected and a flushing procedure is to be carried out what component should also be changed? Options: Compressor, Receiver Drier, Thermal Xpansion Valve, Condenser

Back

Receiver Drier

Front

When leaving the compressor what state is the refrigerant in?

Back

High Pressure, High Temperature gas
