Air Conditioners: In an Air Conditioner chemicals are used tocool the temperature of the room. The liquid chemicals areproduced from a gas, which again converts to gas form. Thechemical transfers the heat from the inside to the outside ofthe room. Mainly the Air Conditioner machine has three parts, acompressor, a condenser and an evaporator. The condenser andcompressor are in the outside portion of the machine while theevaporator is located inside the room.
In the processor the chemical, which is a low-pressured cooledgas, enters. The processor then squeezes that chemical. It makesthe molecules of the chemical closer together. The closermolecules create high energy and heat. The chemical leaves thecompressor as hot and high-pressure gas and enters thecondenser. At the backside of the machine we can see a metalfin. It works as a radiator and helps to cool down the heat veryquickly. When the chemical leaves the condenser, it become verycold. The liquid flows in the evaporator through a small hole.On the other end the chemical becomes colder and starts toevaporate to gas. As the liquid becomes gas it soaks heat fromthe surrounding area. The heat of the air is needed to separatemolecules of the chemical, which were packed together in theprocessor. The evaporator also has metal fins to exchange cooltemperature with surrounding air. The liquid again leaves theevaporator and begins the same process. A fan connected with theevaporator circulates the cool air into the room.
