Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a portable air conditioner that is capable of being integrated with household doors and which consumes a small space in a room.
  • air conditioners that condition (cool, dehumidify, optionally heat and filter dusts and particulates) indoor air in order to ensure a more convenient and efficient environment for people. Due to their nature, air conditioners are generally used for cooling or heating indoor air.
  • Operating method for air conditioners includes evaporating a fluid in liquid state with a determined pressure at a desired temperature and retransforming said fluid into liquid state from gaseous state. A matter in the liquid state is saturated with heat in addition to pressure and is transformed into gaseous state, which is a process called phase change.
  • a refrigerant used as a circuit material is absorbed, compressed and condensed through a compressor. Thanks to the particular chemical compounds used in air conditioners, vaporization is provided and the characteristic of this state change is utilized as heating or cooling.
  • a cycle including recondensing the fluid evaporated through a closed-coil system is provided.
  • the air conditioners known in the prior art are used in several areas, from houses, vehicles to the places of work and education.
  • the air conditioner is formed of an inner unit and an outer unit.
  • the inner unit is located in the area to be conditioned while the outer unit is placed outside, preferably in an environment where it would be in contact with outdoor air.
