Understand AC: Efficient Cooling and Humidity Control
Air conditioning systems primarily function through two critical processes: temperature reduction and humidity control. They operate by pumping heat from the interior of a building, absorbing it into a low-temperature refrigerant, and expelling it outside through a high-temperature refrigerant. Additionally, air conditioners manage humidity levels by extracting moisture from the air, which manifests as water leaking outside the unit. Despite the vital role of these systems, the industry shows a lack of urgency to innovate or enhance efficiency, with most developments being incremental rather than transformative.
