About electric car batteries
Filed Under Electric Cars | Leave a Comment
Cars have become a necessity in our daily life for traveling comfortably. Almost every well-to-do family owns a car these days. But one of the drawbacks is that it pollutes the atmosphere which is a severe problem in the present era. Burning up of gasoline can be reduced by replacing fuel oriented cars with the electric cars.
Electric cars use an electric battery which has the power not only to initiate the engine or run other car accessories, but also to run the car. It runs the controller which is responsible for the running of the motor. These electric batteries are very powerful so that they can run the car to far off distances with the minimal battery charging. Though they are not competitive enough to the gas-engines, but are environment friendly and cheaper. We need to protect our environment from harmful gases, and these electric car batteries are just the right option where vehicles are concerned.

Filed Under Cars & Environment | Leave a Comment
Car air conditioners have been around for a long time. As all air conditioners their primary task is to condition off the air in a closed environment so that the impure air is driven out and the pure air can take its place. As a result the temperature is regulated as well. Although the first air conditioners made their appearance in the 1940s, there has been a great deal of evolution in the air conditioner models that are in use today.
Freon, the refrigerant gas, is compressed off by the compressor. This compressor is generally run by the car engine. A condenser is used to separate the heat from the gas. After the condenser is used, a receiver drier ensures that the liquid is pushed off to the expansion valve. In case your car does not have a receiver drier it would be equipped with an accumulator. The expansion valve or orifice tube regulates the liquid. It is the evaporator that finally aids in the cooling of the air.
