A/C Evaporator Core:

The A/C evaporator core is a plate/fin type with a unique refrigerant flow path.

^ A mixture of refrigerant and oil enters the top of the A/C evaporator core through the A/C evaporator core inlet tube and is routed so it flows through the partitioned first four plate/fin sections.
^ The next four plate/fin sections are partitioned to force the refrigerant to flow toward the top of the A/C evaporator core.
^ Refrigerant repeats the cycle for two more plate/fin sections and then moves out of the A/C evaporator core through the A/C evaporator core outlet tube.
^ This W-pass flow pattern accelerates the flow of the refrigerant and the oil through the A/C evaporator core.
