Abstract
An air-conditioning apparatus for a vehicle wherein noise in the passenger's compartment is reduced by suppressing transmission of vibration to the evaporator, and the prevention of coolant leakage is enhanced, and at the same time, the man-hours for inspection are reduced by reducing the number of pipe joints. The cooling capacity is also enhanced by replacing the sub-cooling process in the condenser and the super-heating process in the evaporator, and further space in the narrow engine compartment is effectively used.
