THE COMPRESSOR
• Under Atmospheric
pressure and temperature,
the refrigerant is in
Gaseous form, we must
transform gas to liquid
form by raising the
temperature.
• Work done on it
• Conversion of gas to
liquids releasing its latent
heat

FLOOR MOUNTED
• Shaped like cupboards & are typically placed at
small enclosure adjacent to the conditioned
area.
• Central plants are usually large airconditioning plants assembled at the site. These
plants are used for big buildings such as hotels, theatres, hospitals, large office
complexes and factories.
• As the name implies the central plant is housed in the central location, usually in a
plant room. This plant room could be in a basement or adjacent to the building to
be airconditioned.
• Villas, offices, hotels & classrooms are typical examples for applications that may use
VRF systems efficiently
DIRECT EXPANSION [DX] SYSTEMS
Treated Air
Plant Room Pumped to various parts of
[Air is cooled & conditioned] the building
• The refrigerant in the shell [or tube] of a shell or tube heat exchanger,
evaporates by picking up the heat from the water which is in the other portion
of the heat exchanger.
• This chilled water is then circulated to various water – air heat exchangers
called fan coil/ air handling units.
• This system is also preferred where multiple zones are to be cooled like in a
hotel or a hospital.

• A grille is a device for supplying or extracting air vertically without any deflection.
• A diffuser normally has profiled blades to direct the air at an angle as it leaves the
unit into the space.
There are several types of grille and diffuser Less commonly used diffusers are as
to choose from, as follows; follows;
Bar Grille
The blades of this type of grille are shaped as a
Bar grille
bar compared to a narrow blade.
The bar profile may be ‘T’ shaped to reduce ‘see
through’ visibility.
These are used for an alternative air distribution pattern and for aesthetic reasons.
Air can be delivered around the perimeter of a room as opposed to point sources
interposed in a ceiling space.
Linear slots can be used for return air as well as supply.
In many cases blanking plates are used to create ‘dummy’ slots so that a continuous
linear effect is created.
One to four slot widths are common depending on how much air is to be delivered.
DIFFUSERS & GRILLES
Swirl Diffuser
High turbulence occurs immediately within the
proximity of the diffuser, which allows high air
change rates to be successfully supplied into the
room.
With careful selection swirl diffusers can handle up
to 30 air changes per hour while still satisfying
relevant comfort criteria.
Jet Diffuser
Used in areas where the ceiling is high and
large air velocities are needed to reach the
occupied space.
The high volume and long throw of these
diffusers makes them suitable for large halls
Some jet diffusers can be reversible and
rotatable which allows the air jet to be adjusted
for both pattern and deflection.
Punkah Diffuser
Used to give flexible air direction, sometimes in
the back of seats so that occupants have control
over flow and direction of air.
DIFFUSERS & GRILLES
Perforated Diffuser
Perforated diffusers are suitable for installation
in 600mm ceiling tiles.
The face plate may be pivoted down to gain
access.
The diffusers are constructed from aluminium
or stainless steel the flat face plates are
perforated, this means that they are easily
cleaned and are used in some kitchens.
Valves
Valves are used where the air flow needs to be
regulated or throttled and are suitable for
supply and exhaust applications.
RETURN AIR
- Volume of fresh air is sucked into the building near the AHU
- This keeps the AIR PRESSURE within the building a little higher than the
outside pressure. This prevents dusty, moist or any undesirable external
air from infiltrating into the building
