Despite the widespread diffusion of air conditioning systems in cars of all sizes, many drivers do not know the guidelines for an effective and efficient use of the car air conditioning. Aspect that can lead to errors that affect both fuel consumption and on the efficiency of the system itself, complete with health problems for those who are inside the passenger compartment, such as the classic throat pinching, but also a general malaise given by the waste between internal temperature and external temperature. Recall that the air conditioning of a car is a system based on a closed circuit containing a coolant, a compressor, a capacitor and an evaporator. On average, the use of air conditioning increases fuel consumption from 10 to 20% depending on the external temperature, speed and obviously the type of vehicle. Electric vehicles, on the other hand, see their autonomy reduced from 15 to 30% in case of intensive use.
