basically what i'm saying is the air after being pushed by the fan has a higher heat energy, and therefore has less capacity to pick up heat from the condenser.

Yung mainit na Hangin pag tinulak mo pa sa mainit na Area lalong iinit tama ba hehehehe

sire yebo, may natutunan na naman ako sa'yo.

so ok na yong direction ng fan ko na pulling heat away from the condenser. how about transfering the fan underneath the condenser tapos pulling pa rin. may difference kaya? o mas lesser pa rin heat energy from the pavement than from above the condenser which would be the pick up bed? naku ang gulo-gulo na nito. paki intindi nlng po. hehehh. salamat po.

naguguluhan din ako diyan, pero parang masmaganda kung yung Fan above the condenser tapos pulling heat,kasi kung tumakbo ang sasakyan yung hangin pataas ang direction.

Question mga BOSS tsikoteers....

is it better to install condenser fan pulling air out or in? planning to install one in my ride...

because the summer heat is terrible now... pls advise asap.... sobra init na ng ride ko pag na traffic... hehe...

thanks in advance...

what vehicle do you have?

if you already have a pull fan, you can augment airflow through the condenser and radiator by adding a push fan and maybe a scoop or air dam below the radiator to direct ram air through both the condenser and radiator. similar to the '90's camaro, it is prone to overheating if the scoop is missing from hitting parking lot curbs

share naman ideya nyo mga pipol...

Sir blank Check,

Given the 3" distance from your fan to the pick-up bed, this design will create restriction in the suction process of your fan since the sucked air will immediately bounce at the pick-up bed. Also, this configuration causes the "short cycle" effect as the bounced air has a tendency to be sucked again, thus creating inefficiency. Best way (if feasible) is to move the condenser and install it vertically, positioning the fan at the back (just make sure that the fan has good clearance and nothing blocks-off the air), which in turn will suck the air from the car's side then disposing it below. This installation is almost similar to airconditioned buses.

Mit Adventure boss...

it doesn't have an auxiliary fan yet for the condenser,,, kaya mukhang high pressure siya pag na traffic....

should the air flow be going into the condenser or sucking air out for better cooling?

thanks....

not very familiar with your vehicle layout. is this an east-west or north-south orientation? if there is an existing radiator fan behind the radiator, you can add a fan in front of the condenser. just make sure the foil of the fan blade you are installing is aerodynamically correct with its rotation.
