Refrigerant Line With Inner Heat EXCHANGER

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

In this refrigerant line, the flowing fluid warm refrigerant on the high pressure side is delivered into the low pressure side as flowing, vapor, cold refrigerant to increase the efficiency of the A/C system.

NOTE:

This illustration shows a refrigerant line with an inner heat exchanger that is installed in the Audi A4 from MY 2008 and on the Audi A5 Coupe from MY 2008. Refer to Refrigerant Circuit (vehicle-specific Service Information). (vehicle-specific Service Information).

A - Refrigerant line with inner heat exchanger

B - Channel inside the refrigerant line through with the warm fluid refrigerant flows to the evaporator (refrigerant circuit high pressure side)

C - Channel inside the refrigerant line in which the vapor of cold refrigerant flow to the A/C compressor (refrigerant circuit low pressure side)
