What is the energy transformation of air conditioner?

Answer 1

An air conditioner is a 'heat pump' usually driven by mains electricity.

It works rather like a refrigerator (with the room as the cold box).

There are hollow tubes inside and outside the room through which Refrigerant gases are pumped.

This pump compresses the gases in the pipes on the outside of the room and as the gases are compressed they heat up and this heat escapes to the outside air.

The compressed, cooled gases are then allowed to expand into the pipes on the inside of the room and as this happens the pipes cool down (to be heated up again by the air inside the room which is blown over theses by a fan).

Thus heat is drawn form the inside of the room to be lost to the outside.

The problem is that as the air cools water condenses out of it and drips off the pipes inside the room. This water has to be collected and drained to the outside to stop the air conditioner leaking on the floor.

Hope this helps :-)

Answer 2

Assuming the AC is electric:

1) Electricity is produced by nuclear fission, hydroelectric dams, by burning coal, diesel or fuel oil, or by some other means.

2) The electricity is transmitted from the generator to your local substation and from there to your home. Electric energy is lost (transformed) into heat and electromagnetic radiation in this process.

3) The electricity enters the AC were it is transformed into magnetic fields inside two motors (the motor that powers the fan and the motor that powers the compressor).

4) The magnetic field energy is transformed into motion by moving magnets inside the motors.

5) The motion of the magnets in the fan turns the fan blades which move air.

6) The motion in the compressor is transformed into pressure by compressing a CFC gas until it becomes liquid. The pressure energy and latent energy in the gas turn into heat energy as the gas becomes liquid (it gets hot).

7) The heat energy in the liquid CFC is transferred to the outside air in a radiator.

8) The CFC is allowed to evaporate inside the inside radiator (heat is transferred from the air to the CFC). The air's heat is used to boil the CFC.

9) The gaseous CFC goes to the compressor where the process repeats itself.

Answer 3

the energy conversions of an air conditioner is dez balls in yo mouth

Answer 4

I think that thermal energy is moved from warm areas to cooler areas
