Air conditioners
1.
2. The Basic Principle
It works on the principle of successive heating and
cooling of a volatile liquid, Freon.
This makes the environment successively cooler.
It absorbs the heat from the environment and cools the
air.
3. Compressor
Compressor is the single most expensive part inside an
AC unit.
The liquid first enters the compressor and is converted
into a gas.
This releases heat and makes the liquid cooler.
4. Condenser
The cooled gas from the compressor enters the
condenser.
The gas then absorbs the heat from the surrounding
and turns into a liquid again.
The whole cycle continues cooling the room.
5. Outer Cover
There is nothing much that the outer cover does other
than provide an esthetic appeal.
It is generally made of molded plastic of different
shapes, designs and colors.
