[Vwdiesel] 2000 TDI a/c question - and a brief description

[Val Christian]

Turns to hot compressed gas, gets cooled by the condenser, then into liquid form.

Then high pressure liquid is passed through orifice, and the "mist" is evaporated in the evaporator, where the cooling action is.  It also expands there, and the LP gas goes to the compressor.
