Evaporator Core: Description and Operation
EVAPORATOR COREThe evaporator core is the plate/fin type and has the following characteristics:
- a mixture of liquid refrigerant and oil enters the bottom of the evaporator core through the evaporator core inlet tube and is routed so it flows through the partitioned plate/fin sections.
- refrigerant then moves out of the evaporator core through the evaporator core outlet tube as a vapor.
- air from the blower motor is cooled and dehumidified as it flows through the evaporator core fins.
