There is a fail in the Exploration of the Expansion valve.(13:10) it dosn't operate like this. If the evaporator is cold enough, the sensing refrigerant in the sensing Part retracts and closes the valve, becourse the refrigerant in the evaporator cant compleatly evaporate and so it makes sure that no liquid can go from the Output of the evaporator to the compressor. But its Position is between condensor and the evaporator. Its Sensor is connected to the Output of the evaporator. Think about the placement of the capillary Tube, its the Same as the Expansion valve. Also it closes when its Sensor gets to cold and opens when it gets warmer. (Sorry for some misspelled words, im german)😉

[@ksuwareh78]

Thank you so much, I have learned something interesting

[@headbanger1428]

Your simple-to-follow teaching videos contribute greatly to many lives around the world. Thank you. I wish KZbin (AKA Alphabet Corp.) knew that as well. C’est la vie.

[@willeveryday]

Brilliant video, it explains the process very well. Please, my spicy chorizo, investigate cascading cryogenic systems. As the temperature for each level decreases, it uses a more appropriate refrigerant for the temperature and pressures that will be required.

[@HighClassPythonS]

Hey how are you can you please help me..i have a portable ac it does work and cools but the compressor keeps turnin off, do knw what can be causing this, it cools for one min and then stops can it be a sensor or is it somethin i can fix??

[@JjMn1000]

Some corrections for stuff in the video: Air compressors usually use reciprocating compressors which have pistons but these types of compressors which are a second type of rotary vane compressor have a different design. It is not a screw compressor and I have taken one apart before. You usually find screw compressors on large water chillers. The liquid dryer is before the metering device. R290 is propane aka a hydrocarbon. Hydrocarbon refrigerants do not have any ozone depletion potential aka ODP. HFCs like r410a(r32 and r125) have no ODP but they do have GWP aka global warming potential. Hcfc refrigerants like r22 are being phase out and have both ODP and GWP. Cfc refrigerants like r12 are VERY VERY BAD and are illegal. I agree scroll compressors are becoming more common but you will still see reciprocating compressors and rotary vane compressors. All motors that have VFD capability or multi speed capability can drive motors/compressors at variable speeds. Newer chillers usually have scroll compressors.

[@heyderaliyev8976]

again you have proved with this video once again that *YOU ARE ONE OF THE BEST EXPLAINERS AND CONTENT CREATORS ON KZbin* probably one of the TOP TEN (y)

[@nemerissa]

I remember during my thermodynamics course back when i was an undergrad student, the most hard part fpr the teacher was to explain the refrigeration cycle!! Youn nailed it man 🔥 very well explained 🤙🏻

[@ashok_ign5623]

Great Explanation 🔥🔥🔥

[@stefano.a]

Beautiful video, thanks. It would be fantastic to see also how to build a little working model of an air conditioner using cheap (and non toxic) components. It would be the only one existing on KZbin

[@sabahjason1]

That was the best A/C how it works explaining i ever seen on youtube .🙏

[@stephenyambor1422]

Thanks for taking the time to make this. Im a fan of the TXV, always thought about converting my fixed orifice so the compressor wouldn't constantly kick on and off. Anyway, great explanation of the components!

[@iamjamesonbliss]

You explained how an AC unit works so well that everything finally clicked. Thank you. Your degree of knowledge and ability to describe the most technical aspects of a room air conditioner in the most simplest manner is exemplary. Bravo and thank you! You have a subscriber for life and, of course, will support as able.

[@naufian]

I have watched so many videos explaining about air conditioning, and this video is by far the best one and easiest to understand.

[@mohamedabdikarim3128]

Thank you for sharing this knowledge. Great work yet simple enough to understand for everyone.

[@uyscuti5571]

u always make stuff look so easyy, i really love how u explain topics!

[@test-qm4ey]

Thank you!

[@PhG1961]

Well I must say that I'm very fond of teaching/learning videos on KZbin. Indeed, I liked the video, I always do ! I enjoyed it very much an it was an nice refresh on heatpumps. And of course I leave a comment to trigger the KZbin algorithm. You deserve it !

[@PhG1961]

What about some improvements like using an Arduino/ESP8266/RaspB. to remote control and/or monitor this AC with a web interface and/or smartphone/tablet ? Seems like a challenge to me. And while I'm suggesting... why not try to do temperature measurements with the famous DS18S20 ! I like that one very much !

[@jamesdarlington]

Thanks for the information, very informative👍🏻

[@mcorrive12]

Love your videos!!

[@marvinpaluyo5858]

Thanks for sharing knowledge

[@krisraps]

Thanks For The Video :)

[@lackr0073]

Love your videos! Couple correction. 1. Your fans are not turbine fans they are centrifugal fans. 2. It is not a screw compressor it is a rotary compressor. 3. The device on the compressor you referred to as a muffler is a suction accumulator (prevents liquids from being sucked into the compressor) 4. R290 is one of the most environmentally friendly refrigerants, but it is flammable. 5. The temperature sensors are likely thermistors and not thermocouples. Great video thanks!

[@tiomjan]

Thank you. Keep going like this.

[@kaizartariq9531]

[@owindustry]

thank you so much sir for this valuable information.

[@blakealbano9780]

THANK YOU!!!

[@FallLineJP]

Great video! I’m considering making a frankenchiller out of an air conditioner by immersing the condenser coil in a cooler of glycol solution. It seems that these portable units would actually be a great choice for this since the condenser coil is already stacked at the bottom of the unit and you don’t need to bend the delicate copper pipes as you would on a window AC unit. Appreciate all of the close up shots, it was really helpful!…

[@kamotestagabasag3287]

Thanks i got a bit of knowledge how the air-conditioning works, hope you'll make more learning videos! 👍👍 2 thumbs up!

[@rajandeepsingh4945]

love from India 🇮🇳.... very well explained bro... i love your videos and love you too💕💕😘😘😘

[@kcg795]

I did convert my portable A/C to a dual hose and that seemed to help a lot. I eventually upgraded to a mini-split system. The portables are just too loud and I hated that mine used my window. My 12,000 btu can get my room ice cold and not even be phased while it seemed like my 10,000 btu portable had to work overtime to get my room down to a comfortable temperature. Portables and window A/C units are fine if you're renting. But if you own your home, you can't go wrong with a mini-split. Best thing I've ever done. Might install one in the living room next.

[@ksull72487]

Mini Split is going to be the best. Wall or Window Units second. If in the states you need to look at BTUs SACC (Seasonally Adjusted Cooling Capacity or DOE) for portables. Since most portables on the market are less efficient. As of 2017 most of your 10,000 BTU units are far less. Many people tend to miss this when sizing one. Which is why the gov. changed the BTU rating system for portables. They do work if sized correctly and dual hose units seem to be a bit better. I do have 10,500 BTU SACC unit. Zero Complaints for the space it cools. Renting. Although they start to get quite expensive in this range.

[@Hieu.minh97]

How did you convert it? I want to convert mine as well

[@RowanYouTube]

​@@Hieu.minh97 avoid condenser coil to suck air from inside room. Close it and attach one hose pipe. The keep other end of the hose pipe outside the room. In short.. Existing portable AC has only one hose thats hot air out hose. Make one more hose set up at the inlet side of the condenser coil

[@pizzablender]

Loved to see that water evaporator thing. I wondered how they do that, my guess was just dripping water over the condenser. But then the device would be useless as a dehumidifier (used without exhaust hose).

[@cxa12]

Appreciate the first explanation.

[@selfcontrol231]

Great work

[@phil955i]

With a couple of exceptions, a very good explanation

[@justwhatever80]

Thanks i learnd alot from you

[@MyOwnWaySreejith]

Excellent video

[@franciscojavierramirezaren4722]

Thanx nice video, greetings from México!

[@ceasrmata3167]

Great info

[@viniciusnoyoutube]

I had viewed a lot of videos about the AC and the only thing that I couldn't understand was the expansion valve. Finally with your explanation and very nice diagram I understand now. There are two valves, one is the compressor and the other is the expansion valve. The expansion valve is an "open valve!" Thanks for the video!

[@ateebtahir7226]

Same

[@AtiqurRahman-gj6mg]

Best explanation
