The large aluminum air-conditioning reservoir plays an important role in the air-conditioning system. Its main functions include the following aspects:

1. storage of refrigerant liquid

The large aluminum air-conditioning reservoir is mainly used to store high-pressure liquid refrigerant from the condenser. This can ensure that the condenser will not be submerged by too much liquid, so as to ensure that the heat transfer area of the condenser can play a full role.

2. adjust and stabilize refrigerant circulation

The accumulator can adjust and stabilize the refrigerant circulation according to the actual demand of the air conditioning system. When the system load is large, the accumulator can release more liquid refrigerant to meet the demand; When the load is small, excess liquid refrigerant can be stored to maintain the stable operation of the system.

3. prevent liquid hammer

The accumulator also acts as a liquid seal to prevent the high-pressure refrigerant gas from escaping into the low-pressure system pipeline and avoid the occurrence of liquid hammer. Liquid hammer mainly occurs in piston compressor. Because refrigerant liquid (or lubricating oil) is sucked in by the compressor, it will cause abnormal impact accident of the compressor.

4. filter impurities

In the process of system maintenance, the accumulator can hold most of the refrigerant, avoid discharging refrigerant to the atmosphere, and filter out impurities in the refrigerant to protect subsequent components from damage.

5. adapt to changes in working conditions

The accumulator can automatically adapt to the change of load, adjust the condensation pressure, and make the condenser work in the best working condition. This is of great significance to improve the efficiency of the air conditioning system and prolong the service life of the equipment.

To sum up, the large aluminum air conditioning reservoir plays multiple roles in the air conditioning system, such as storage, regulation, protection and filtration, and is the key component to ensure the efficient and stable operation of the air conditioning system.
