How air conditioning worksThe essential ingredients in an air conditioning system are a fan to blow air around, a coldsurface to cool and dehumidify the air, a warm surface and a source of water vapour. In alarge system there will also be a tangle of tubes to distribute the air and collect it again. Notice that the cold surface has two independent jobs to do: it is used to cool the air and it isalso used to dehumidify, by condensing water from the air. This means that the air is cooledmore than is necessary for temperature control, so that it must be heated again afterwards.
