  1. How Does Air Conditioning Work? You know your home air conditioning system keeps your home or office cool in the hot summer, but have you ever wondered how it works? One interesting thing you might not know is that air conditioner and refrigerator work primarily the same way. The difference is that refrigerator cools a small, insulated space, and an air conditioner keeps your home or office space at a comfortable temperature. The process of converting the air in your home at a comfortable temperature is based on a simple scientific principle and rest is attained by mechanical means. Let us take a look at how air conditioning works for cooling your home. Process of Cooling Your Home with Air Conditioner

  2. Your home air conditioning system uses chemicals that convert from gas to liquid and back again quickly. This chemical transfers the heat from the air inside your home to the outside air. The AC unit has three main parts; these are the compressor, the condenser, and the evaporator. Your AC unit’s compressor and condenser are located in the outside part of your air conditioning system. Inside your house you will find the evaporator. The cooling fluid then reaches the compressor as a low-pressure gas and the compressor squeezes this gas or fluid, and the molecules in the liquid are packed closer together. The closer the compressor forces all these molecules together, the higher the temperature and energy rise is achieved. How Your AC Removes Hot Air and Blows Cold Air

  3. The working fluid exits in the compressor as a high-pressure, hot gas, and it also moves to the condenser. The outside unit of your air conditioning system has metal fins around the housing. These fins do work like the radiator on a vehicle and help dissipate the heat more quickly. When the fluids leave the condenser, it is very much cooler. It is also changed from a gas to liquid because of the high pressure and the fluid makes its way into the evaporator by a minuscule, narrow hole and when this liquid reaches the other side of this passage, the pressure drops. When this process happens, the fluid begins to evaporate to gas. When this occurs, the heat is extracted from the surrounding air and this heat is then required to separate the molecules present in the liquid into a gas. The metal fins on the evaporator helps in exchanging the thermal energy with the surrounding air. When the refrigerant leaves the evaporator, it comes again at low-pressure, chilled gas. The process then starts all over again when it goes back to the compressor. There is a fan that is connected to the evaporator and which circulates air around the inside of your home and across the fins of the evaporator. The air conditioner sucks the air into the ducts through a vent and this air is used to cool the gas in the evaporator, and as the heat is removed from the air, it is cooled. Ducts then blow air back into your house. This process then continues until the inside air of your home or office reaches to the desired temperature. When thermostat senses that the interior temperature is achieved to the desired level, it shuts the air conditioner off. When the room is heated up again, the thermostat then turns the air conditioner back on until the preferred ambient temperature is achieved again.

  4. You can see there are two things going on in AC, refrigerant is chilling the indoor air and the resulting gas is continually compressing and cooling for conversion back to a liquid again. With this blog, we tried to explain the concept of a home air conditioning system in a simple way. We hope that this will help you visualize how it works.
