Cooling capacity of a central air conditioner

We all know that central air conditioning equipment conditions the indoor atmosphere, making it cooler or warmer, as preferred by the user. An air conditioner can be defined as a machine designed to stabilize the air temperature and humidity within an area (used for cooling as well as heating depending on the air properties at a given time). Typically, for comfort cooling in buildings and motor vehicles, air conditioner systems use the refrigeration cycle, but in some cases, they also use the evaporation method.

The cooling capacity of a central air conditioner is the ability of the compressor/condenser and the air handler/evaporator to deliver cool air to the occupied space. Usually, the compressor/condenser is found outside, while the air handler/evaporator is found inside the unit. The compressor/condenser draws refrigerant gas from the building air handler, compresses and cools it back to a liquid refrigerant. The air handler/evaporator coil then permits liquid refrigerant to evaporate inside a cooling coil, where there is a fan that blows the built up air to cool and dehumidify it.

The cooling capacity of home air conditioning systems is usually rated in BTUh (British Thermal Unit) or by tonnage.  One ton is equal to 12,000 BTU per hour. The higher the average temperature of the outside air, more cooling capacity is required. If you live in a city which has scorching hot summers, you will need an AC with higher cooling capacity.
