How Does PermaFrost Increase Cooling Efficiency?
Cooling – The Process of Heat Transfer
Using Refrigerants to Transfer Heat
Cooling is a process of transferring heat from one location to another. When an air
conditioning system cools, it removes heat by transferring it using compounds called refrigerants
Role of Condenser & Compressor Units
As refrigerant travels through an air conditioning system, it goes through a cycle of expanding
into a vapor and condensing into a liquid. Air conditioners have condenser and compressor units
that are typically located outside where they can transfer heat from within the building into
the environment through the evaporation and condensing process. As the name implies, a
compressor/condenser turns refrigerant into a liquid.
Moving the Hot Air to the Outside of Your Building or Car
As vapor refrigerant is compressed, it gives off heat and turns into a liquid. The liquid
refrigerant moves from the compressor/condenser into the structure through a unit called the
evaporator that is usually located within the building. Hot air gathered from the building is
blown over coils within the evaporator that contain the liquid refrigerant. As the refrigerant
absorbs heat from the air, it turns into a vapor. This is how heat from the interior air is
transferred through the coils to the refrigerant which carries the heat back outside to the
compressor/condenser.
Within a typical air conditioning system, a layer of non-conductive oil will attach itself to the inner lining of the system.
This layer of oil will restrict the flow of the refrigerant through the system and thus decrease
heat transfer rates. PermaFrost will dislodge the non-conductive layer of oil that lines the tubing
within your system and replace it with highly charged thermo-conductive molecules that will increase
the flow of refrigerant through the system and help facilitate increased heat transfer.
Before PermaFrost
- Reduced system efficiency.
- System works harder to deliver the design specification results.
- Causes it to run longer and use more energy.
- Increases wear and tear.
After PermaFrost
- PermaFrost, once injected will dislodge the insulative, non-conductive layer of oil and replace
it with highly charged thermo-conductive molecules whereby eliminating future build-up for the life
of the system.
- The energy that was lost to friction now is restored. There is additional heat conductivity, dissipation and less energy is needed to "circulate" the refrigerant throughout the system. See how PermaFrost reduces Laminar Friction.
- The compounds integrated into the technology contain polarity. As we know heat is energy and
energy can be made directional by another form of energy, which in the case of PermaFrost is the
thermo-conductive compounds.
- By acting as molecular fins, PermaFrost attracts the heat from the refrigerant and conducts it
through the metal at an accelerated rate therefore increasing the systems capacity and reducing energy,
resulting in more cooling action with less energy.
