A "General" calculation is 320 square feet (normal ceilings) per ton. However, please note that there are calculations involved with proper sizing of an AC unit. These calculations work off of "Degree Days" which produces a number based off the average heat for summer; Zones if you will. For instance if you live in zone 1 then your 2 ton unit can cool 680 square feet of home no problem, however in zone 5 it may only cool 320 square feet. Also note that these calculations (and online calculators) do not include insulation and other air leak problems.

How much space can a room air conditioner cool?
How much space a room air conditioner can cool is dependent on the size of the unit. You can read the amount on the side of the box if you are not sure.
To what temperature can a window air conditioner cool your room?
It depends on the BTU of the air coditioner, the cubic footage of space in the room to be cooled, and the temperature and humidity in the room. Under best conditions, an standard air conditioner can only cool a room to the mid 60's. Any colder than this causes the evaporator to ice over, clogging the air flow into the room, which causes the temperature to rise, even though the air conditioner is still running.
Why are air conditioners placed high on walls and not on the ground?
Because the cool air from the air conditioner is denser than the warm air in the room and sinks. Placed high up the cool air will have time to get further from the air conditioner before it settles to the floor, allowing it to cool more of the room. Placed on the floor the cool air will mostly pool around the air conditioner and very little of the room will be cooled. Some air conditioner are actually placed relatively low in a room, but they have fans and baffles that blow the cold air upwards to the ceiling resulting in the same effect as placing the air conditioner high (maybe even better as the fan blows the cool air not only up to the ceiling but across it, possibly covering a larger volume of the room than cool air falling passively from an air conditioner placed high but without fans).
Why does an air conditioner must cycle on and off to keep the room cooled to a preset temperature?
Seriously? Cold air blows out of the air conditioner when it's on, reducing the temperature of the room. When the temperature in the room reaches some preset value, the air conditioner shuts off to prevent the temperature from dropping any lower. Once the air conditioner is shut off, heat sources within the room including people, appliances, and heat entering through walls and windows causes the temperature in the room to increase. When this happens the air conditioner kicks on again to bring the temperature back down. It ain't rocket science.
What is the difference between normal air conditioner and Precision air conditioner?
i dont knw...

What is an air exchanger on an air conditioner?
t where the hot air is taken in and cooled.
Where may i find an industrial air condition?
The price of an industrial air conditioner depends on what type of air conditioner you purchase. The price depends on how much space you are trying to cool. The bigger the space, the bigger and more expensive air conditioner you're going to need.
How is air cooled by air conditioner?
by the process of heat transfer.freon in air conditioner absorbs heat from air,as boiling point of freon is too low.thus air cools
On a window air conditioner should water be discharging from the back?
Whether you get a few drops of water or a more or less constant flow depends on the humidity of the air... If the air being cooled is very humid (= wet, moist, damp) then, when it is cooled down to a lower temperature, that air won't be able to hold so much water. The air conditioner would get flooded if the water it has taken out of the air cannot be discharged.
Will an air conditioner remove humidity too?
Yes, A/C units inherently remove moisture as the air is cooled. anonymous@oola.com
2.7MPa in air conditioner is how much psi in air conditioner?
That'd be 3256.23

Why cooled air is thrown from top in air conditioner?
Not always true. There are upflow units, downflow units and horizontal side discharge units.
How much does a air conditioner cost?
it all depends on how large of an air conditioner you need.
What is ductable air conditioner?
air conditioner maintain the humidity,temp,pressure,sound,air velocity,dust control. if we have to maintain more than 2-4 rooms at a time with one air conditioner then we are using this type of air conditioner. in this system one duct or line have to go through all rooms to flow the pure & cooled air to the rooms & one duct or line have to bring all corrosive air outside the rooms & flows into outwards. This type of conditioner called ductable air conditioner.
Were the first automobile engines liquid cooled or air cooled?
Air cooled, much like the old "hit and miss" farm engines.
