A review on working of Air conditioner

Shweta Varshney

Abstract


By removing the heat and moisture from an area, air conditioning (also known as AC, A/C, or air con) is a device that lowers the temperature inside.

Indians used to put wet grass mats over windows to cool entering air through evaporation as an early kind of air conditioning. Atomized water sprays were initially utilised for both chilling and humidification in the textile industry of the 19th century, which is where modern air conditioning had its start.

They function primarily by introducing warm air into a system and distributing cold air, but the process is much more complex.


A fluid (often water or air) is cooled throughout the home air conditioning process by the evaporation of a third fluid, known as the refrigerant. Utilizing chemicals, your air conditioner quickly transforms gas into a liquid and back again, removing the heated air from inside your house. After that, it is discarded outside. Simply put, an air conditioning system regulates room temperature, humidity, and air quality. The way the air is distributed is important since prolonged exposure to cool air could be uncomfortable. Sometimes it's necessary to slightly reheat chilled air before it's blown back into a space

Keywords
