Understanding how the parts of a car's air conditioning system works is very important for its owners to know. This is not without reason, as the air conditioning in a four-wheeled vehicle consists of many components with different functions and ways of working. 

That is why, as the owner of such a four-wheeled vehicle, it is very important to understand the components or parts along with their functions. Besides being useful as additional information and insight, it will also help you understand the car's air conditioning features further. 

Moreover, it will also assist you in the periodic maintenance of the car's air conditioning system to make it last longer and not easily damaged. It should also be noted that maintenance on car air conditioning is not as cheap as one might think. 

Parts of Car Air Conditioning and Their Functions 

The presence of air conditioning in cars has been used since 1939 for the first time by an American car manufacturer. Its presence is indeed very important because it can be used as a room cooler, making every journey comfortable at all times. 

If you own a car like a Daihatsu, it is important to understand the parts of the car's air conditioning system well. Here are some components of the car air conditioning system that need to be known. 

Compressor 

The compressor is a component of the car's air conditioning system with a very important role, which is to pump freon so that it can circulate to all air conditioning components found in the car. Freon itself is a liquid that will later turn into gas when compressed by the compressor. 

The way this component works is driven by a fan belt that rotates from the engine pulley. While it is rotating, there will be a shaft connected to a plate with several notches. 

Magnetic Clutch 

The next component is the magnetic clutch, which functions to regulate when a compressor will work and stop, even though the pulley part of the engine continues to operate. This will cause the pressure of the freon coming out of the compressor to increase. 

The way this component works is by utilizing the magnetic attraction through the process of electromagnetic induction. When induction occurs, the magnetic clutch will immediately move to the coil and attach to the compressor pulley, causing the shaft to rotate. 

Drier

The drier is also a crucial part of the car's air conditioning system. Its main function is to dry the freon from water. Although the vehicle's air conditioning cycle is closed, it is still possible for water vapor to enter the air conditioning ducts. 

Condenser 

In addition to the compressor, the condenser in the car's air conditioning system has a quite important task of releasing heat into the air freely. This heat comes from the freon, which must be expelled by this component. 

To maximize the work of the condenser, it is usually assisted by another component called the cooling fan. This will help to make the temperature cooler optimally. 

Evaporator 

Meanwhile, the evaporator in the car's air conditioning system has the function of cooling the air that will later be channeled into the cabin. The principle of operation of this component is quite similar to that of the condenser. The cold freon will first be channeled to the core. This cold temperature will flow evenly across the surface of the fins due to its conductive properties.

The existence of the cooling system in the car plays a significant role in providing comfort while driving. That is why it is important to understand the parts of the car's air conditioning system to carry out maintenance, including on your Daihatsu vehicle.
