The compressor discharges high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant. |
|
This gaseous refrigerant flows into the condenser. In the condenser, the gaseous refrigerant condenses into liquid refrigerant. |
|
This liquid refrigerant flows into the receiver, which stores and filters the liquid refrigerant. |
|
This filtered liquid refrigerant flows to the expansion valve, and the expansion valve changes the liquid refrigerant into a low-temperature, low-pressure liquid/gaseous mixture. |
|
This cold liquid/gaseous refrigerant flows to the evaporator. Vaporizing the liquid in the evaporator, the heat from the warm air stream passing through the evaporator core is transferred to the refrigerant. All the liquid changes into the gaseous refrigerant in the evaporator and only heat-laden gaseous refrigerant goes into the compressor.
Then the process is repeated again. |
