2. Thermal expansion valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_expansion_valve

   A thermal expansion valve is a key element to a heat pump; this is the cycle that makes air conditioning, or air cooling, possible. A basic refrigeration cycle consists of four major elements: a compressor, a condenser, a metering device and an evaporator. As a refrigerant passes through a circuit containing these four elements, air ...

3. Variable refrigerant flow - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_refrigerant_flow

   Variable refrigerant flow (VRF), also known as variable refrigerant volume (VRV), is an HVAC technology invented by Daikin Industries, Ltd. in 1982. [1] Similar to ductless mini-split systems, VRFs use refrigerant as the primary cooling and heating medium, and are usually less complex than conventional chiller -based systems.

4. R-410A - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-410A

   R-410A is a refrigerant used in air conditioning and heat pump applications. It is a zeotropic but near-azeotropic mixture of difluoromethane (CH 2 F 2, called R-32) and pentafluoroethane (CHF 2 CF 3, called R-125). R-410A is sold under the trademarked names AZ-20, EcoFluor R410, Forane 410A, Genetron R410A, Puron, and Suva 410A.

5. Variable air volume - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_air_volume

   The air blower's flow rate is variable. For a single VAV air handler that serves multiple thermal zones, the flow rate to each zone must be varied as well. Simple VAV terminal unit. A VAV terminal unit, [9] often called a VAV box, is the zone-level flow control device. It is basically a calibrated air damper with an automatic actuator. The VAV ...

   packaged terminal air conditioner An air conditioner and heater combined into a single, electrically powered unit, typically installed through a wall and often found in hotels. Abbreviated PTAC. PAG Polyalkylene glycol is a synthetic oil used in A/C systems to lubricate the compressor.

7. Vapor-compression refrigeration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor-compression...

   A representative pressure–volume diagram for a refrigeration cycle. Vapour-compression refrigeration or vapor-compression refrigeration system (VCRS), [1] in which the refrigerant undergoes phase changes, is one of the many refrigeration cycles and is the most widely used method for air conditioning of buildings and automobiles.
