    🔥See how a portable air conditioner works and the parts we have inside. The compressor, evaporator, condenser, expansion valve and more. With animations and examples, I hope you will understand the theory adn how it works.

      There is a fail in the Exploration of the Expansion valve.(13:10) it dosn't operate like this. If the evaporator is cold enough, the sensing refrigerant in the sensing Part retracts and closes the valve, becourse the refrigerant in the evaporator cant compleatly evaporate and so it makes sure that no liquid can go from the Output of the evaporator to the compressor.
      But its Position is between condensor and the evaporator. Its Sensor is connected to the Output of the evaporator.
      Think about the placement of the capillary Tube, its the Same as the Expansion valve.
      Also it closes when its Sensor gets to cold and opens when it gets warmer.
      (Sorry for some misspelled words, im german)😉

      Brilliant video, it explains the process very well. Please, my spicy chorizo, investigate cascading cryogenic systems. As the temperature for each level decreases, it uses a more appropriate refrigerant for the temperature and pressures that will be required.

      Hey how are you can you please help me..i have a portable ac it does work and cools but the compressor keeps turnin off, do knw what can be causing this, it cools for one min and then stops can it be a sensor or is it somethin i can fix??

    Some corrections for stuff in the video:
    Air compressors usually use reciprocating compressors which have pistons but these types of compressors which are a second type of rotary vane compressor have a different design. It is not a screw compressor and I have taken one apart before. You usually find screw compressors on large water chillers. The liquid dryer is before the metering device.
    R290 is propane aka a hydrocarbon. Hydrocarbon refrigerants do not have any ozone depletion potential aka ODP. HFCs like r410a(r32 and r125) have no ODP but they do have GWP aka global warming potential. Hcfc refrigerants like r22 are being phase out and have both ODP and GWP. Cfc refrigerants like r12 are VERY VERY BAD and are illegal.
    I agree scroll compressors are becoming more common but you will still see reciprocating compressors and rotary vane compressors. All motors that have VFD capability or multi speed capability can drive motors/compressors at variable speeds. Newer chillers usually have scroll compressors.

    Love your videos! Couple correction.
    1. Your fans are not turbine fans they are centrifugal fans.
    2. It is not a screw compressor it is a rotary compressor.
    3. The device on the compressor you referred to as a muffler is a suction accumulator (prevents liquids from being sucked into the compressor)
    4. R290 is one of the most environmentally friendly refrigerants, but it is flammable.
    5. The temperature sensors are likely thermistors and not thermocouples.

    Great video! I’m considering making a frankenchiller out of an air conditioner by immersing the condenser coil in a cooler of glycol solution. It seems that these portable units would actually be a great choice for this since the condenser coil is already stacked at the bottom of the unit and you don’t need to bend the delicate copper pipes as you would on a window AC unit. Appreciate all of the close up shots, it was really helpful!…

  • @pizzablender

    Loved to see that water evaporator thing. I wondered how they do that, my guess was just dripping water over the condenser. But then the device would be useless as a dehumidifier (used without exhaust hose).

      What about some improvements like using an Arduino/ESP8266/RaspB. to remote control and/or monitor this AC with a web interface and/or smartphone/tablet ? Seems like a challenge to me. And while I'm suggesting... why not try to do temperature measurements with the famous DS18S20 ! I like that one very much !

    Very nice and detailed teardown!
    I also have one of those ACs and its a powerful unit: I think it has a 1000W compressor and I measured the cooled air outlet at below 10C. So it cools really well.
    But the unit it too loud and its too powerful to be honest. The compressor runs at 100% power no matter what and it produces strong vibrations which I tried to dampen with rubber mats below the unit. That helped a lot.
    It it possible to control the speed of the compressor with a VFD? Should work just fine since its just a big induction motor.

      No this process is more efficient. Thermoelectric coolers cold and hot side are shared, limiting the temperature difference between them. Best are split units, window units, then these (2 hose portable ac's perform better than 1)

  • @kcg795
    @kcg795 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    I did convert my portable A/C to a dual hose and that seemed to help a lot. I eventually upgraded to a mini-split system. The portables are just too loud and I hated that mine used my window. My 12,000 btu can get my room ice cold and not even be phased while it seemed like my 10,000 btu portable had to work overtime to get my room down to a comfortable temperature. Portables and window A/C units are fine if you're renting. But if you own your home, you can't go wrong with a mini-split. Best thing I've ever done. Might install one in the living room next.

    • @ksull72487
      @ksull72487 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Mini Split is going to be the best. Wall or Window Units second. If in the states you need to look at BTUs SACC (Seasonally Adjusted Cooling Capacity or DOE) for portables. Since most portables on the market are less efficient. As of 2017 most of your 10,000 BTU units are far less. Many people tend to miss this when sizing one. Which is why the gov. changed the BTU rating system for portables.
      They do work if sized correctly and dual hose units seem to be a bit better.
      I do have 10,500 BTU SACC unit. Zero Complaints for the space it cools. Renting. Although they start to get quite expensive in this range.

    • @RowanYouTube
      @RowanYouTube หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      ​@@Hieu.minh97 avoid condenser coil to suck air from inside room. Close it and attach one hose pipe. The keep other end of the hose pipe outside the room.
      In short.. Existing portable AC has only one hose thats hot air out hose. Make one more hose set up at the inlet side of the condenser coil
