Refrigeration Air Flow - Whirlpool Polara GR556LRK Service Manual

EVAPORATOR AIR FLOW
Air flow through the oven cavity and evaporator
is basically a closed loop system, although
some of the air will be drawn out through the
oven vent in the cooktop, and the bottom of the
oven door.
Air is drawn out of the cool air return vent in the
bottom of the oven cavity, where it moves
through the inlet of the cooling module to the
evaporator. The air moves through the evapo-
rator, where it is cooled, and forced through the
air outlet. The cooled air travels up the left side

evaporator.
CONDENSER AIR FLOW
The compressor is cooled by room air, which
then flows right to left through the condenser,
and back into the lower compartment of the
