Heating AC and Engine Cooling
Heating, air conditioning (AC) and engine cooling require a radiator to transfer heat. Heating a cabin requires heat to be transferred from an engine block. Engine cooling blows the heat out of the engine. AC uses refrigerants to cool air.

Why does your car run the air-conditioning unit when the defroster is on?
dry air removes moisture better
Your car overheats and loses water it is not thermostat what could it be?
need find out where you are losing antifreeze = look for leaks at radiator hoses etc first, then intake manifold top side of engine along sides of engine as well. Be careful if engine is hot .then lastly check you engine oil in case there is an internal antifreeze leak due to faulty intake manifold or head gasket. if not found have a pressure test done on the cooling system
Recalls york AC evaporator coil?
Yes there was 2 of them. Both coils were prone to leaks after about a year. Contact your local YORK dealer to see if your evaporator coil model # and serial # are part of the problem coils.
Why does your cooling fan still ran when the engine is switched off on your car?
The cooling fan is controlled by a temperature activated switch, usually installed in the radiator. When the coolant temp rises to a preset setting the switch closes and turns on the fan.
The temperature of the coolant in the engine actually goes up immediately after shutdown as the coolant is no longer flowing but sitting still while it absorbs all the heat from the engine block and head. This heat passes through the coolant and raises the temperature of the contents of the radiator. Thus, a few seconds after the engine is shut off, the sensor reacts to the increase in temperature and turns on the fan.
This is beneficial to the engine because it prevents pressure buildup in the radiator and reduces heat buildup under the hood that could cause hot restart problems.
Why is your 2001 freightliner classic XL shorting AC micro clutch switches and how do you fix it?
You have either a short to ground or short to power somewhere. You can either trace the harness wiring and repair it, or replace the harness outright.
How do you tell head gasket gone?
Check the oil for coolant ot the coolant for oil. It will be a yellowish colored crud. The car will probably overheat too.

Where do you find the sensor for your cooling fans?
Generally they are located close to the themostat and have two wires attached. The year, make, model and engine would help.
It mean air condition... It mean alternating current too... and Atlantic city
Just like any other substance, steam cools on contact with anything around it that's
cooler. In the case of steam ... rising, let's say, from something on the stove ... it's
cooled by the air it passes through, and by anything else it drifts past, such as the
cool pots elsewhere on the stove, or the walls and ceiling of the kitchen.
BUT ... if you're thinking about cooling some steam enough so that you can hold it in
your hand, then forget about it. Remember that water turns to steam when you heat
it to 212 degrees. It works exactly the same in the other direction ... as soon as you
cool some steam down below 212 degrees, it turns to water !
Where is the cigarette lighter fuse in peugeot 407?
In the coin compartment and behind the arm rest towards the back seats.
What causes a head gasket on a car to blow?
Anything that causes the engine to run hot, like a faulty thermostat, can cause the head gasket to blow. also say a coolant hose ruptures, all the coolant is then drained from the radiator and the engine is then essentially running with no way to cool down, gasket blows. there are many ways for the engine to run hot, but it is the main reason a head gasket would blow out.
What is wrong if car is overheating and heater blowing cold air?
most likely thermostat stuck less than $ 15 part
How much does it cost to replace steam radiators with forced hot water heaters?
Are you considering this in a residence? A friend of mine converted a residential steam system with cast iron radiators to hot water for child safety reasons. It all worked, but he had to deal with some water leaks at joints in the radiators. That was a nuisance. The amount of heat delivered to the house will be different with water, but I can't remember if the radiators are oversized or undersized after conversion. In his case it heated fine. Call a professional.

What is the Bulgarian for cool?

The condenser receives hot high pressure gas refrigerant from the air conditioning compressor.
It cools this gas (it looks like a radiator) turning the gas into a cooler liquid. (condensing it)
it is the part in an ac systems that restrics the flow of freon, making it get cold. always just before the evaporator
Its more of a nozzle that converts the freon into gas. When freon is in its gas state it gets very cold. In a liquid form, it can get very hot. The temperature varies in different gases. (i.e. R22, R134.etc)
Why do turbine engines use fuel to cool the oil in preference to air?
Because there would only be enough airflow to cool the engine while the aircraft was flying. When the airplane was on the ground before or after takeoff there would not be enough airflow to cool the engine properly.
