    Air conditioning involves treating air to control its temperature, humidity, purity, and distribution to meet the needs of a conditioned space. It aims to provide maximum human comfort for occupants and suit industrial processes. The main components of air conditioning are air cleaning, heating, cooling, humidification, dehumidification, and air circulation. In summer, incoming air is cooled, dehumidified, and distributed. In winter, incoming air is cleaned, heated if needed, humidified if needed, and distributed to maintain comfortable temperatures and humidity levels. Proper air filtration, velocity, and distribution are also important for air conditioning.

    ▣ Process

    of treating the air so as to


    control simultaneously its
    temperature, humidity, purity
    and distribution tomeet the
    requirements of controlled space.
    1) Comfort and health of
    occupants
    2) Needs of certain industrial
    processes
    3) Efficient working of
    commercial premises/offices
    ▣ Comfort air conditioning : - Aim at
    giving max human comfort to
    occupants/users of conditioned
    space
    ▣ Industrial air conditioning : - The
    coditioning creates, controls and
    maintains such an environment inside
    the conditioned space, that it would
    suit best to the needs of industry.
    1) Summer air conditioning
    ▣ In summer outside temp is more and
    hence cooling of air is required
    ▣ Consists of

    i) Air cleaning
    ii) Air cooling
    iii) Dehumidification
    iv) Air distribution/circulation
    2) Winter air conditioning
    ▣ In winter outside temperature is low
    hence heating of air is needed for
    comfort.
    ▣ Cycle of operations consists of
    i) Air cleaning
    ii) Air heating
    iii) Humidification
    iv) Air distribution/circulation
    1) Temperature control
    0 0
    ▣ Effective temp = 20 C to 23 C in
    summer
    0 0
    ▣ Effective Temp = 18 C to 22 C in
    winter
    0
    ▣ For Indian conditions 25 C with 60%
    relative humidity to 300C with 45 %
    relative humidity, with air velocity not
    exceeding 10 m/min
    ▣ During summer dehumidification
    is done so that relative humidity
    is 40 to 50%
    ▣ During winter humidification is
    done so that relative humidity is
    50 to 60 %
    ▣ High velocity of conditioned
    air may cause greater
    temperature difference
    between outside and inside.
    ▣ Velocity = 6 to 9 m/sec is
    desirable
    ▣ Air should be free from
    odour, toxic gases, bacteria
    and other micro-organisms
    1. Filtration
    2. Heating (in winter)
    3. Cooling (in summer)
    4. Humidification
    5. Dehumidification
    6. Air circulation or distribution
    ▣ Should be capable of removing
    dust, ash, smoke, bacteria etc
    ▣ Should be capable of holding moderate
    amount of dust without affecting the
    efficiency
    ▣ Should offer low resistance to flow of air
    ▣ Workableunder sufficient range of
    velocities.
    ▣ Should afford easy cleaning manually or
    mechanically
    ▣ Heating is necessary in winter so
    as to compensate heat loss from
    room.
    ▣ Pre heating of incoming air may be
    done by passing over air furnaces
    or coils through which hot water is
    circulated.
    ▣ Cooling of incoming air is
    necessary in summer.
    ▣ Principle of mechanical
    refrigeration is used.
    ▣ Humidification or addition of
    water is necessary inwinter
    when air because oflow temp
    has less humidity.
    ▣ Incoming air is passed through
    pans of water or wet cloth strips
    ▣ In this process certain amount of
    water is extracted from air.
    ▣ This is done insummerwhere
    incoming air is cooled.
    ▣ Adsorbents can be used to
    adsorb excess moisture from air
