An airplane airconditioner is completely different than the one in your house or car. It doesn't rely on a refrigerant. Rather it takes hot high pressure air from the hot compressor section of the turbine engine and puts into something called a PAC. There is one PAC for each engine. The air first goes into a heat exchanger where it is cooled by ram air. Some of the air is then sent to a small turbine where the pressure is further increased. the air is then cooled again through another heat exchanger then sent to an expansion turbine where the pressure is dropped, rapidly cooling the air. A water separator collects the water released from this rapid expansion. The resulting cold air is then mixed with the air that was sent to the first heat exchanger. The pilot manually adjusts the mixing of the two air supply's to arrive at a temperature that is suitable for the cabin. The temperature is voice controlled. When the flight attendant calls up and yells it's too hot back here, he knows it's time to readjust. Since there are two PAC's one is used to control the air in the front of the airplane, the other the rear. People in the middle get what's left over... Hope this helps. -- Southwest Airlines First Officer ( aka "termperature boy")
The 1990 Buick LeSabre air conditioner recharge valve can be found on top of the air conditioning compressor. The air conditioner recharge valve will have a blue top.
Portable air conditioner will not blow cold air. What to do?
can some tell me where the port is the 1993 lexus so I can recharge air conditioner
There are two ports to recharge the air conditioner in a 1998 VW Jetta. Follow the Air Conditioner lines to the firewall, the lower one is on the passenger side near the strut tower.
You will need a Freon recharge kit. Connect the hoses of the recharge kit to the ports on top of the air conditioner compressor. Release the Freon into the compressor.
Your recharge your air conditioner with the type of refrigerant which it was designed for.
No
The recharge prot is on top of the "drier", which is located under the passenger side wheel well. Will-
With a can of freon
on the low side
How to recharge my air conditioner and have not been able to find a cap. Where do I hook up the coolant to refill the air con?
