If you want a cheep source for 134a thats what is in air duster.. Most dusters contain one of two chemicals: tetrafluoroethane (HFC-134a) or difluoroethane (HFC -152a).

Peltier based would be cool though

[@TheBozn]

Peltier ones are just extremely inefficient ​@@CrobinHood8BitGuy

[@BaldAndCurious]

Why are peltier and ice based coolers "fake" AC? They may not be the most efficient, but they are real with actual capability to reduce the temp of a certain amount of air. Middle eastern cultures have used "Cooling towers" to reduce the heat inside buildings without refrigerants. The US, used ice based cooling from ice blocks cut off from Alaska. Some companies now use ice based cooling to reduce costs. As long as it serves it's purpose, it's "real". You just need to have the proper application for whatever technology.

[@utubepunk]

​@@BaldAndCuriousGreat take.

[@Matt_Deluca]

As someone who is certified to work on these systems, I think it's really cool that you made it work with those parts! Good idea using that syringe cap as a metering device. Very creative. I'd love to see how it does with a fan running on the evap coil. That being said, there's a few things I don't like that I feel should be addressed. First is that you lost a lot of refrigerant. Some loss is to be expected, but losing the whole charge multiple times is just negligent. 134A is a greenhouse gas after all, which is why it's beginning to be phased out and replaced with eco-friendlier HFO refrigerants. You didn't remove the air from the system first either. Not only does it ruin the performance of the system, but it also ruins the refrigerant. Second, when you mentioned that you can use any refrigerant. If you put R410A in that system for example, you would blow every line and maybe even that condenser coil due to the much higher pressures. If you put propane (R290) or butane (R600) in it, there's a good chance it will literally just explode into flames. That compressor is only designed to work with R134A and nothing else. You need a compressor rated for flammable gases to use them safely as refrigerants. Other than that stuff, cool video! I always liked the idea of clear lines in these systems. They just have to be rated for the right pressures so they don't pop!

[@AK_Exploration_SII]

Well said Matt, you saved me a lot of typing. I'm what is known in the UK as a Category 1 FGas engineer, while I appreciate the video creator is yound and VERY intelligent for his age it did make cringe for the reasons you pointed out. But well done to the creator if you carry on progressing, find some funding and get the tools and hardware (maybe some refrigerant handling pointers or training) and experiment away, who knows where you might end up if you can make it work with hose pipes!

[@drewclev188]

Try copper lines and use a piercing valve so you can pull a vacuum first to remove non condensables. And definitely want to get a fan pushing air across the condensing coil(the big fridge coil)

[@n0tlance314]

if you ever make a part 2, i would recommend using copper lines. they can be found pretty easily. also pull a vacuum on your system before charging, as mixing water and refrigerant can cause a pretty corrosive reaction that could destroy your components. and use pag 46 or pag 100 oil r134a. but pretty impressive though for what it is and the materials used! looking forward to what you make in the future.

[@apophthegm]

would love see you test the limits, like how much pressure it can take before something gives. also turn on the fan

[@andrewb9595]

This is a really helpful tutorial. I'm trying to turn a 12v cooler into an A/C for a teardrop camper. At first I tried just filling the cooler with water and using a USB water pump to transfer cooled water to a 360mm pc radiator with 3 fans, but it's just too inefficient to keep up with the thermal load. It can only maintain a few degrees ∆T. I think the next step is to remove the compressor from the cooler and run refrigerant straight to the radiator like you've done here.

[@materialdialectics]

This is a really cool project, although I'd recommend doing more intensive testing to make sure it can hold the pressure before putting refrigerant in it because that stuff isn't great it get exposed to not to mention the whole hole in the ozone layer thing. Have to admit I want to try this though.

Can the car's evaporator core be installed in a propane home air conditioner?

Expanding and contracting the gas increasing the surface area in the PC cooler allows that to be the evaporator and immediately reducing the heat over the span of the heat exchanger no matter how small

[@jamesduffey4442]

The freezing up is not good for the system as a whole... you don't want it freezing because then your going to be feeding the compressor a bunch of liquid and not vapor.. you want the liquid refrigerant to go from a liquid to a gas in the evaporator then the gas goes to the compressor and the cycle starts over. 🤔

Asking again for one more time here 2 months later, do I REALLY need to use high pressure hose or just a normal hose would fully work? I don't want to use a garden hose for the whole system for go kaboom, I'm thinking of high pressure gas stove hose for it but not 100% sure if I had to get a hose specifically for refrigerant systems (Talking about in somewhat long term usage and not will work or not first) Concept Summary: A compressor-based personal space cooler that uses a compressor and a condenser to cool the air. The compressor and the condenser are placed outside on a window, and connected by a high pressure hose. The indoor unit is a modified desk evaporative swamp cooler (specifically Arctic Air, the front-side plastic part fan is cut off using a dremel to for a custom copper evaporator to be fit in) and it blows air through the evaporator. This cooler SHOULD be more effective and way more long lasting than using swamp cooler by using an ice + water, and unlike using only water, works in humid conditions.

[@markb1911]

It’s part of the refrigeration cycle when the compressor is running. You have a high-pressure side and a low pressure side, by way of circulating refrigerant in a loop with a compressor and then limiting the rate at which the refrigerant can flow through a section of that loop. By restricting the rate that refrigerant can flow into the evaporator, it causes a pressure imbalance, with high pressure being created between the compressor output and the restriction valve, and because it is a closed loop, a vacuum is therefore created after the restriction valve to the compressor intake. The evaporator is placed between that valve and the compressor input, making it part of the low pressure section. Refrigerant is sold as a liquid in a compressed state to fit the most refrigerant possible into the unit of volume that is the can so the can is not huge for no reason. Because it’s pressurized, and because the fill valve is placed in the section of the refrigeration loop where a vacuum is being pulled by the compressor, the refrigerant is easily sucked into the system by connecting the can to the fill valve, turning in the compressor, and opening the can’s valve. The refrigerant is sucked into the low pressure vacuum side of the system just the same is when it is circulating in the loop from the high pressure condenser side. There is always a vacuum drawn in the low pressure side with relation to the pressure in the closed-loop system. The can of refrigerant is not at 0psi. It can not be by its very properties that it’s designed for. The pressure of the liquid refrigerant in the can is greater than the pressure of the gas refrigerant on the low-side, and is quickly pulled into the system.
