You sir have a remarkable gift of speech. Few people can speak at that pace and do it flawlessly. Very impressive, and an excellent presentation as well.
9.9.18. It’s quite apparent that you know your subject matter well! ......... Do you have any formal training in The automotive sector❓ if you don’t you sure can’t tell it, a superb tutorial.
I've seen so many "professional" videos with animations and graphics that have explained things so much worse. This is probably one of the best A/C Compressor videos I've ever seen, really awesome! Subscribed!
How does this guy only have 83k subscribers? I can't get enough of these videos! Short, concise, no rambling, no useless footage, highly educational. Exemplary!
The ring on the Pistons trap the lubricating oil forming a "seal". It's not perfect as oil and gas can still leak past the piston but it does the job. Nice video though, definitely one of the best explanations I've seen.
+Special Ed This is a fixed displacement compressor. It can't "self regulate internal pressure" in any way except the clutch being turned off by the low pressure switch when the suction pressure goes down too much and by the high pressure switch when the discharge pressure goes up way too much. The one of this compressor is a tried and tested design, also employed for some huge compressors meant to cool city buses down, so the piston rings surely won't do any harm at all. In fact the Ford FS10 has piston rings. However piston rings aren't strictly necessary as a seal; the piston itself can be covered in Teflon for example.
👍🏼 I like that. 7:39 video with 7:29 minutes of useful information. No 40 second intro with Hammerhead music and ridiculous graphics. No long winded speaches. No inconsequential blabbering. Subject matter is straight to the point, clear and concise.
And that's only one example of how they look inside. Others can have a rotating lobe equipped with a set of spring loaded vanes, two spirals rotating inside each other, single sided pistons riding on the edge of a gimballed plate and so on
you're one of the 5 top car content creators on youtube and I seriously mean it because I spend 4hrs per day on youtube watching informative and educational stuff, since I haven't watched TV since 2009(besides sports). keep it up
This may have been covered before, but here goes. You mentioned the lack of piston rings, and that is a good observation. In variable displacement hydraulic pumps of a similar but slightly different design, the leakage past the pistons is engineered to provide lubrication and cooling to the internal mechanism. In this case, I could be completely off base, but it seems that in a fixed positive displacement multiple piston pump, this may also be the case. The leakage and subsequent lubrication would likely be balanced with the required output pressure to reach the rated output while still protecting the internal mechanism. Interesting presentation! I didn't realize that there was a fwd and aft bank of pistons in an automotive A/C compressor. 👍
If you look carefully you'll notice the piston has a thin sleeve of something (maybe a polymer) around. This might be the actual seal. The old Delphi CVC (seemingly a Calsonic Kansei design by the way) on my Vauxhall has piston rings and it's a variable displacement compressor (pressure in the crankcase, controlled by a control valve, and in front of the piston is what controls the swash plate angle). However the pistons are only single-acting.
this is the best tutorial channel in RUclips. Everything is shown and explained so clearly, it's unbelievable. I just wish that there would be IT channel that teaches at least half the quaity.
Ohh, that's how the AC Compressor operates... Thank you for another educational video ! And.... LOL, sacrificed another of you brother's underwear and toothbrush.
I love how you get dirty and teardown a compressor to show the process. So many "engineering explained" channels are just a guy sitting in front of a white board drawing shit out, but it really helps visually to be able to explain how it works in the real world. Great job man
Nope. Never cared how that part worked. This was amazing. I'm riveted. So informative. The pattern on your brother's toothbrush really helped highlight what you were referring to.
Great breakdown of the AC compressor and its components. In roughly 7 minutes this video saved me from spending the potential hours and creating yet another mess in my garage. Now I have some of the answers I wanted. So thanks.
I actually have an uncle who came up with this design in the teens or 20s for an aircraft engine. He sold the patent and now these compressors use this design. Pretty cool.
Back in the 1990;s I worked in an A/C shop...some of the higher end cars had a more complicated Compressor with a constant running pump, but variable swash plate...
The Delphi CVC compressor on my car does exactly the same thing. A valve senses the suction pressure and sets the plate angle to nearly flat when it reaches a control value (nearly flat angle is set by routing the crankcase pressure to the suction so that the pistons are pushed forwards and the plate angle increases, depressed angle is instead set by routing some of the discharge pressure into the crankcase so that the discharge pressure pushes the pistons backwards). The suction pressure control value is also influenced by discharge pressure, i.e. you get ice cold air in the summer when discharge pressures are high because it takes a low suction pressure for the compressor to destroke, and fresh dry air in the winter when the discharge pressures are low because the required suction pressure value increases. Very efficient. It makes different noises whether it's in maximum stroke or minimum stroke and it tends to be much quieter in the former case, and i can tell if a regas is needed by listening to the noise the compressor alone makes. Also the plate always starts rotating at nearly flat angle so that you never get the "bang" noise of liquid slugs. However the pistons aren't double acting.
Who the fuck would give this a thumbs down? This guy knows exactly how to speak quickly and clearly and address every thing that you wonder all along the way! Awesome video!
You are by far one of the most articulate and concise video people I have seen here on RUclips when it comes to breaking down topics to a level that allows them to be understood by anyone and novice technicians. Consider me Subbed. Seriously, Well done.
I really enjoyed the video. I'm amazed that rusty compressor came apart so easily. Also, that sensor is to detect if the compressor is turning. The pressure sensor is on the high side, normally after the condenser.
The sensor could also be a thermal switch that opens as soon as the compressor gets too hot (for example: low lubricant return, very high head pressure, low refrigerant).
Not on that car. The thermal switches you're talking about are normally external. I see them on all the Hondas I work on. The reasonI know that speed sensor is i worked for a Toyota dealership and did the training on them.
@@robertrocheville7769 Well, thanks for clarifying. I know that a lot of scroll and vane compressors usually employed on Japanese cars have a thermal switch placed in series with the clutch coil, and this switch is located opposite to the clutch assembly (looks a lot like the solenoid valve of a clutchless swashplate compressor). Supposed to keep the compressor from overheating due to a low refrigerant charge, because there usually isn't a pressure switch on the low side (there's only a binary/trinary switch or a pressure transducer located on the high side; cycling is via an evaporator temperature sensor)
Blimey this is the best automotive explanation I've ever watched. It's like you rehearsed it a 1000 times before you made the video. I'm impressed and simply educated! Subscribed and looking for more!!
@@speedkar99 that's awesome! Keep I'm binge your old videos now! I consider myself a gear head and there's so many things I had no idea about! Thanks a lot for your videos! And the running jokes are the just the cherry on top! Could you try and do a video on a manual transmission or a transfer case? Especially the vacuum operated ones like on a Cherokee XJ. Also, what's your background? Are you an automotive engineer?? It's amazing how much you know on every component or system! Thanks for responding! :-)
I'd love to get my hands on a manual transmission or CVT one day! I am a mechanical engineer. I do most of my learning by opening things up and seeing how they work, and reading up online. Repair manuals are an awesome resource.
Wow, that was a very simple and informative way to explain it. Even the non mechanically inclined could probably understand this. You should rename it "How an a/c compressor works for dummies".
Awesome video. I am here cause my BMW ran into some strange noises when the AC clutch engaged. I had no idea what a AC clutch is. You sir have an excellent way of explaining things.
I cant believe it has taken 50+ years of adult life to discover that amazingly clever design inside an AC compressor, thanks so much, amazing presentation. Who designed it anyway?
Even more than 5 minutes. 15 minutes a month is the best. Ensure the compressor clutch hub is spinning. In the coldest months, just turn defrost on from time to time, even if you don't really need it. If you live in countries with very cold winter climate, such as Canada or Russia for example, try doing this during every warm spell.
The refridgerant evaporates at low temp and condenses at a higher temp. The compressor raises the pressure of the refrigerant vapour such that it will cool and condense back to liquid at the abient temperatures the condenser is exposed to.
They are both low. It drops in pressure, and therefore temperature due to expansion at the expansion valve and is in a saturated state. The remaining liquid refrigerant evaporates at that low temp. Check a saturation chart - I think it is typically down around -10 C (30 psi, 200 kpa) for R134a at the low side pressure in a car AC system. It emerges from the evaporator as a super heated gas at the same low pressure. Then the compressor boosts the pressure, it goes to the condenser, releases the heat, turns back to liquid. And the process repeats.
EXCELLENT video man. All these years I've known the detailed workings of almost every component of an engine and automobile but had no idea about the inards of a ac pump or how the electromagnet worked. Thank You!

The ring on the Pistons trap the lubricating oil forming a "seal". It's not perfect as oil and gas can still leak past the piston but it does the job. Nice video though, definitely one of the best explanations I've seen.
That's what I was wondering too
Works the same as a axeual piston hydraulic pump or motor
I think if it had piston rings, it would build up too much pressure and blow a hose or o-ring. Probably it's a way to self regulate internal pressure.
+Special Ed This is a fixed displacement compressor.

Aircraft hydraulic pumps work the same way, but the swash plate angle can vary from flat (no pumping) to a max angle for full flow as needed.

Isnt there an internal combustion engine that uses a set up similar to how this ac compressor works?
Are you thinking of the radial engine?
speedkar99 No, its an internal combustion engine with this same exact configuration.
Just looked it up, Its call the Duke Axial engine.
J G Well apparently it does work, its call the Duke axial engine.
That was an excellent video. No fluff, just details. Thanks.
He definitely went the opposite way when describing the flow of refrigerant through the system. Evaporator is the first stage after expansion valve.
Yes and it is a low pressure gas at that point.
Beautiful explanation of every piece and possible reasons for failure, while showing those points of failure. Very nice
I've heard you have to turn on the Ac every month for 5 minutes to lubricated it.
Yep that helps to keep things spinning and from seizing up
Even more than 5 minutes. 15 minutes a month is the best. Ensure the compressor clutch hub is spinning. In the coldest months, just turn defrost on from time to time, even if you don't really need it. If you live in countries with very cold winter climate, such as Canada or Russia for example, try doing this during every warm spell.
Whenever defrost is used, the ac compressor is engaged also. So you are essentially using the ac all year round :)
This is the best automotive breakdown channel in the world.
Thanks. I got a new compressor video coming out soon: the Prius Hybrid.
Why the vapours must pass through the compressor, why not directly from the evaporator to condenser? Is it for efficiency or something
The refridgerant evaporates at low temp and condenses at a higher temp. The compressor raises the pressure of the refrigerant vapour such that it will cool and condense back to liquid at the abient temperatures the condenser is exposed to.
hmm. thanks buddy
I thought the refrigerant evaporates at low pressure, not low temp.
They are both low. It drops in pressure, and therefore temperature due to expansion at the expansion valve and is in a saturated state. The remaining liquid refrigerant evaporates at that low temp. Check a saturation chart - I think it is typically down around -10 C (30 psi, 200 kpa) for R134a at the low side pressure in a car AC system. It emerges from the evaporator as a super heated gas at the same low pressure. Then the compressor boosts the pressure, it goes to the condenser, releases the heat, turns back to liquid. And the process repeats.
