Air Conditioning
refers to any form of cooling, heating, ventilation or
disinfection
that modifies the Conditioning of air, typically for thermal
comfort. The more common use of air Conditioning is to mean cooling and
often dehumidification of indoor air, typically via refrigeration.
Air Conditioning engineers broadly divide air Conditioning applications
into comfort and process.
Comfort applications aim to provide an indoor environment that remains
relatively constant in a range preferred by humans despite changes in
external weather Conditionings or in internal heat loads.

Health implications
A poorly maintained air-Conditioning system can occasionally promote the
growth and spread of microorganisms, such as Legionella pneumophila, the
infectious agent responsible for Legionnaires' disease, or thermophilic
actinomycetes. Conversely, air Conditioning, including filtration,
humidification, cooling, disinfection, etc., can be used to provide a
clean, safe, hypoallergenic atmosphere in hospital operating rooms and
other environments where an appropriate atmosphere is critical to patient
safety and well-being. Air Conditioning can have a positive effect on
sufferers of allergies and asthma.Poorly operating air Conditioning systems can generate sound levels that
contribute to hearing loss, if exposures are endured over a long term.
These levels are similar to the exposure of living near a busy highway or
airport for a considerable length of time. Properly functioning air
Conditioners are much quieter.
For these and other reasons it is as good idea to have your air
Conditionings
system checked regularly (annually) by a air Conditioning professional.

HVAC (pronounced either "H-V-A-C" or
"H-vak") is an initialism or acronym that stands for "heating,
ventilating, and air conditioning". HVAC is sometimes referred to as
climate control and is particularly important in the design of
medium to large industrial and office buildings such as skyscrapers
and in marine environments such as aquariums, where humidity and
temperature must all be closely regulated while maintaining safe and
healthy conditions within. In certain regions (e.g., UK) the term
"Building Services" is also used, but may also include plumbing and
electrical systems. Refrigeration is sometimes added to the field's
abbreviation as HVAC&R or HVACR, or ventilating is dropped as HACR
(such as the designation of HACR-rated circuit breakers).
Heating, ventilating, and air conditioning is based on the
principles of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer,
and on inventions and discoveries made by Michael Faraday, Willis
Carrier, Reuben Trane, James Joule, William Rankine, Sadi Carnot,
and many others. The invention of the components of HVAC systems
went hand-in-hand with the industrial revolution, and new methods of
modernization, higher efficiency, and system control are constantly
introduced by companies and inventors all over the world. |
