Ford A/C System Refrigerant Flow Diagram - Compressor, Condenser & Evaporator

This document is a text-free schematic illustration of an automotive air conditioning refrigerant circuit. It depicts the complete refrigerant flow path: a belt-driven compressor at the center, a condenser coil at the top, an evaporator coil at the bottom, and an accumulator/receiver-drier canister with an internal U-tube pickup on the right side. Refrigerant lines connect these components, with bold directional arrows indicating flow direction around the loop. Inline fittings suggest an orifice tube/expansion device and service ports, and two small gauge symbols indicate pressure measurement points. Circular magnified callouts along the lines illustrate the physical state of the refrigerant (vapor with bubbles versus liquid, shown with different hatch and bubble patterns) at each stage of the cycle. A legend of four pattern swatches at the lower right corresponds to these refrigerant states, though it carries no text labels. Because the diagram contains no printed words, numbers, or identifiers, the source year, make, and model cannot be confirmed from the document itself. A reader can learn the general layout and refrigerant flow of a vehicle A/C system, the sequence of components, and how the refrigerant changes state between vapor and liquid through the cycle.
