  INTRODUCTION ⚫Definition - Airconditioning is the process of altering the properties of air (primarily temperature and humidity) to more favorable conditions. ⚫The control of these conditions may be desirable to maintain the health and comfort of the occupants, or to meet the requirements of industrial processes irrespective of the external climatic conditions
• 4.
  PRINCIPLES OF AIR-CONDITIONING ⚫Thegoal is to keep it more comfortable inside the house than it is outside.
• 5.
  TYPE OF AIR-CONDITIONING 1)Window air-conditioning system 2) Split air-conditioning system 3) Centralised air-conditioning system 4) Package air-conditioning system

  1) Windows Air-conditioning System ⚫Windowair conditioners are one of the most commonly used and cheapest type of air conditioners. ⚫To install one of these units, you need the space to make a slot in the wall, and there should also be some open space behind the wall. ⚫Window air-conditioner units are reliable and simple-to-install solution to keep a room cool while avoiding the costly construction of a central air system. ⚫Better yet, when the summer heat dies down, these units can be easily removed for storage, and you can use the window sill for other purpose

  2) Split Air-Conditioning System ⚫Thesplit air conditioner comprises of two parts: the outdoor unit and the indoor unit. ⚫The outdoor unit, fitted outside the room, houses components like the compressor, condenser and expansion valve. ⚫The indoor unit comprises the evaporator or cooling coil and the cooling fan. For this unit you don’t have to make any slot in the wall of the room. ⚫Further, the present day split units have aesthetic looks and add to the beauty of the room. The split air conditioner can be used to cool one or two rooms.

  3) Centralised Air-Conditioning System ⚫Thecentral air conditioning plants or the systems are used when large buildings, hotels, theaters, airports, shopping malls etc. are to be air conditioned completely. ⚫The window and split air conditioners are used for single rooms or small office spaces. ⚫If the whole building is to be cooled it is not economically viable to put window or split air conditioner in each and every room. ⚫Further, these small units cannot satisfactorily cool the large halls, auditoriums, receptions areas etc.

  DEFINITION– a cyclethat shows how the refrigerant vapor is inhaled and discharged by the compressor to the condenser.
• 13.
  Compressor -Inhaling the refrigerant fromthe suction channel - Compressing to the discharge channel. Hot refrigerant vapor and high pressure Condenser -Remove heat from condenser -Refrigerant vapor turn to liquid. Hot refrigerant vapor and high pressure Expansion Valve -Low the temperature and pressure of liquid -Control the flow rate in -to the evaporator. Cold refrigerant vapor and low pressure Evaporator -Liquid turns to vapor -Cold air flows out room Cold refrigerant vapor and low pressure
