Your A/C consists of a

COMPRESSOR,

CONDENSER,

EXPENSION VALVE and

EVAPORATOR.

Refrigerant (R12, or now-a-days R134a) is compressed in the compressor and turns into a hot gas. It ios than sent to the condenser. In the condenser, the hot gas is cooled until it is turned into a liquid. Then, it travels to the expansion valve. As the Refrigerant goes through the expansion valve it turns to a low-pressure gas and RAPIDLY cools in the evaporator. A fan sits behind the evaporator and blows the air around it and that eventually blows the air out your vents!!!
