In an air conditioning system which uses a Fixed Orifice Tube, the accumulator is located on the low pressure (vacuum) side, between the evaporator outlet and the compressor inlet. The accumulator ensures that all the refrigerant which goes into the compressor inlet is in a vapor state, and prevents any refrigerant which is still in a liquid state from getting through.
The first IBM 702 had two 512 character accumulators.
Accumulators, or energy storage devices, typically store either electrical energy in the form of chemical energy (such as in batteries) or potential energy (such as in hydraulic accumulators). The stored energy can be released when needed to power various systems or devices.

Assuming 2 was already in one accumulator and 2 was already in another accumulator and the two accumulators were wired together for addition, 200 microseconds (one addition cycle). The values don't matter, any numbers that fit in the 10 digit accumulators can be added in that time. If the numbers are not already in those accumulators more cycles (and wiring) will be needed to get them there.
An AC accumulators job is to remove moisture from the AC system it performs this function with a package of dessicant inside it. Dessicant is a compound that absorbs the moisture around it. An accumulators job is also store excess refrigerant not being utilized by the evaporator.
