Condensers
The Condenser function is to act as a heat exchanger and allow heat to flow from the hot refrigerant to the cooler outside air.
R134a entering the condenser will be a high-pressure high temperature vapor. As the R134a vapor travels through the tubes of the condenser heat is given off to the cooler ambient air; the refrigerant vapor condenses and changes to a liquid state.
At this point a large amount of heat is given off by the R134a. The refrigerant will now be a hot, high pressure liquid.
Serpentine design
This type of condenser consists of one long tube which is coiled over and back on itself with cooling fins in between the tubes.
Parallel flow design (Recommended for R134a)
This design is very similar to a cross flow radiator. Instead of refrigerant travelling through one passage (like serpentine type), it can now travel across numerous passages. This will give larger surface area for the cooler ambient air to contact.
