An 'air conditioner' is an electrical device or appliance that cools down or removes the heat from the air in an enclosed space by utilizing a refrigeration cycle. The air conditioning system is made up of a compressor, a condenser, an evaporator, refrigeration lines and a couple of sensors. The compressor is the heart of your a/c system which takes the refrigerant (the gas) and pressurizes it so it will cool the air. It's run by an engine belt.

An air-conditioning system uses a refrigerant gas like Freon to cool the air. Freon is placed in a sealed system and is then pressurized using a compressor. As it's pressurized, it gets hot by absorbing the heat around it. This hot gas then passes through a radiator outside to be cooled by the air outside which is cooler than the compressed gas. The cooled Freon still remains compressed. It is then expanded into another radiator where it cools off a lot as it expands. When air in your room gets blown across this cold radiator, it becomes cold too. This is also how most refrigerators and freezers work. Tushar kanta Rath Berhampur,orissa tusar021@gmail.com
