What is ACCU in air conditioning design?

ACCU - Air-Cooled Condensing Units Air-cooled condensing units covers products that are specifically designed to provide cooling to other equipment and systems that incorporate evaporators (and associated expansion valve control systems). Air-cooled condensing units are factory-assembled units that consist of an air-cooled condenser, one or more compressors, and interconnecting pipe work. They may include liquid receivers, filter driers, oil separators, shut off valves and related controls, and a weatherproof housing.


What is a water cooled shunt?

A shunt is an electrical conductor joining points of a circuit, into or out of which current can be diverted. The water-cooled refers to the way it's kept cool, as insulation is not provided.


How do fuses differ from circuit breakers?

A fuse box is a box that holds fuses that once blown, they have to be replaced. A circuit breaker will reset itself after it has cooled down. +++ NO: that is a thermal-overload protector. A circuit breaker is not normally auto-reclosing (except for certain types in power-stations). It has to be re-set manually, so fails safely: it stays off until you have traced and corrected the fault,or disconnected the guilty appliance, that caused it to release. A fuse is just a thin wire filament that melts (fuses) if the current drawn exceeds its limit.


What is the technical difference between oil cooled transformer air cooled transformer?

The basic difference between the air cooled transformer and oil immersed transormer is: If the heat generated in the transformer winding is capable of being swapped by the sarrounding ambient air without causing any problem to the performance of the transformer then its normally reffered as Naturally Air Cooled transformer or simply air cooled transformer. However when the capacity of the transformer increases, the heat generated in the winding of the transformer is more and the ambient air normally is inadequate to cool the windings and maintain the performance of the transformer. Its because of this reason the transformer windings are submerged in an oil tank. It has been observed that the hydrogen ions present in oil help to maintain the temprature of the winding of the transformer and thus overall performance of transformer.

Why does vw air cooled engine quit when the brake is applied?

There's a short to ground in the brake light circuit. When you step on the brakes, it diverts all the power in the car to ground, and stops the engine.

Tar is heated so it can stick to what ever it is going on. If it was cooled it would not stick right.
