Volkswagen Polo Service & Repair Manual: Pressure and Boiling Point
The boiling point given in tables for a liquid is always
referenced to an atmospheric pressure of 1 bar (14.5 psi). If
the pressure acting on a fluid changes, its boiling point also
changes. |
For example, water boils at a lower temperature the lower
the pressure. |
The vapor pressure curves for water and refrigerant R134a
show that, at constant pressure, reducing the temperature
changes vapor to liquid (in the condenser) or that reducing the
pressure causes the refrigerant to change from liquid to vapor
(evaporator). |

Heel and Toe Wear
Heel-and-toe wear is step-like wear of individual tread
blocks, due to which an increased rolling noise can develop. The
heel-and-toe wear is caused by the uneven distortion of the
tread blocks in the contact patch. Heel-and-toe wear appears in
more extr ...
