Heating (VW Golf 2)

The car interior is heated in an intermediate way. The coolant heated in the engine flows through the pipes to the heater. The air flowing through the heater is heated and then directed through the pipes into the car interior. If the car is not moving, we cause the air flow by starting the air blower. The intensity of the blowing is regulated by the speed of rotation of the air blower rotor. The rotor can rotate at three speeds, which are switched on using switch 10 on the dividing panel, see Figure 11.10.

The heating intensity and air direction are adjusted using control rods, see Figures 11.10 and 11.11.

One lever controls the flow of cold air, and the other - the air duct passing through the stove. By moving both levers to the appropriate position, the air can be mixed.

Warm air is mixed with cold air in the appropriate proportion and thus the desired temperature inside the car is achieved.
