Volkswagen Polo Service & Repair Manual: Critical Point
| Vehicle air conditioning systems make use of the
vaporization and condensation process. In this case, one works
with a substance which boils easily, designated as refrigerant. |
| The refrigerant employed is tetrafluoroethane R134a, which
boils at -26.5 °C (-15.7 °F) at a vapor pressure of 1 bar (14.5
psi). |
| The critical point (critical temperature and critical
pressure) is that above which there is no longer a boundary
between liquid and gas. |
| A substance above its critical point is always in the
gaseous state. |
| At temperatures below the critical point, all types of
refrigerant in pressure vessels exhibit both a liquid and a gas
phase, i.e. there is a layer of gas above the liquid. |
| As long as there is still gas present in the container next
to the fluid, pressure is dependent on ambient temperature.
Refer to
→ Chapter „Refrigerant R134a Vapor Pressure Table“. |
 Note
| Different types of refrigerant are never to be mixed. Only
the refrigerant designated for the corresponding A/C system may
be used. |

Rolling Resistance Tires
Tire deformation when rolling causes the vehicle to loose
energy that makes the rolling resistance noticeable.
Deformation is significantly lowered on rolling resistance
tires due to new construction and low-wear surface mixtures.
