Best Answer

The electric fans used to cool the engine are designed to switch on to full speed when the air conditioner compressor is being used. When you turn on the heater/defroster the air conditioning compressor also turns on to help remove moisture from the air. Since both when heating or cooling your car the air conditioner compressor is working the fan will be running at high speed and makes more noise.

Can a dehumidifier and a fan replace an air-conditioner?

Both a dehumidifier and an air conditioner remove moisture from the air. Both a fan and an air conditioner move air. An air conditioner, however, cools air which a combination dehumidifier and fan can not do. If it is hot, and especially if there is an elderly person liable to suffer from heat stroke or heat exhaustion, an attempt to replace air conditioning with a dehumidifier and a fan could lead to death.

Does a fan really cool the air?

No, a fan simply circulates air so that the warm air around you is replaced with cooler air. And if a fan blows the air directly onto your body, your skin is cooled by the increased rate of evaporation of surface moisture as aided by the rapid airflow. Evaporating water absorbs heat and transfers it away.
