Gossiping Fat Bitch Hair Dressers - Turning their lemons into My Lemonaid

It's HOT - and in terms of thermal regulation, head hair - above 6mm it starts to become an increasingly effective insulator, and below 6mm you can lose a lot of head from your head.... When the highly variable summer weather is peaking around 44*C so far... and many of the days were / are 34*C.... A cooling the head, hair cut is kind of a HUGE relief....

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: bruh you have 4 (or was it 2?) nuclear powered fans, I think they provide enough cooling for you, if that is not enough, i can think of a phase change cooling system based on ammonia (industrial effectiveness) might smell a little if you get leaks, but otherwise it puts you straight in antartica)

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson:

Ammonia (R-717) is a highly efficient, natural, and cost-effective refrigerant used in large industrial and food processing cooling systems due to its excellent thermodynamic properties, high latent heat, and zero ozone depletion/low global warming potential, though its toxicity and strong odor require stringent safety measures and specialized equipment for handling leaks, making it less ideal for small household applications but excellent for large-scale cooling

yes

@Lucifer333: Yeah I have also done a lot of research on refrigerant gasses, like why top up the cars air con for $300 or what ever, when you can substitute butane or propane or methane....

I also figure that NEVER ether, but light naptha - or lighter fluid / shellite, has a boiling point of 38*C - and there abouts, a hot day say 30*C, and the HOTTER compressor, just add a fresh load of compressor oil, and a few teaspoons of light naptha, and that will circulate into the system, as a refrigerant...

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: car aircos are wonderful, personally i like modern Benz vans they meated out and run on diesel

@Lucifer333: Household use of vapor compression refrigerators and air conditioners emerged in the early 20th century, as small electric motors became available to drive the vapor compressor. These early systems used ammonia, isobutane, methyl chloride, propane, and sulfur dioxide. Each of these had drawbacks for household use, such as odor, toxicity, or flammability. (Despite their flammability, propane and isobutane had good safety records.)[18]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/....Refrigerant#Comparat = R600A $2 a can - easy to recharge a system, all the seals etc., should be compatible...

@Lucifer333: Is that a diesel airconditioning system that uses diesel as a working fluid, or the airconditioning system is driven by a diesel motor?

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: diesel motor, lol, I dont think diesel does well in phase change

@Lucifer333: No, Mercedes-Benz does not use diesel as a working fluid (refrigerant) for air conditioning systems. Diesel fuel is used exclusively as a combustible fuel for the engine in diesel-powered models, which provides the energy required to drive the AC compressor via an alternator or engine belt. The working fluids actually used in Mercedes-Benz air conditioning systems include: R1234yf (HFO-1234yf): The current primary refrigerant for most modern Mercedes-Benz models. It was adopted to meet global environmental regulations because of its low global warming potential. R744 (CO2): A natural refrigerant used in flagship models like certain E-Class and S-Class variants. CO2 systems operate at much higher pressures (over 100 bar) compared to traditional systems and are non-flammable. R134a: The long-standing standard for older models, including your 1998 Hilux (as discussed earlier) and Mercedes-Benz vehicles manufactured before the mid-2010s transition. Air-to-Air Heat Pumps: In 2026, new electric models like the CLA use specialized heat pumps that pull heat from the ambient air, battery, and drivetrain to manage cabin temperature without a traditional refrigerant or water circuit. While Mercedes-Benz famously raised concerns about the flammability of R1234yf in engine bays (particularly in gasoline models), they resolved this by installing inert argon gas generators to suppress ignition in collisions, rather than switching to a fuel-based refrigerant.

@Lucifer333: Yeah I thought that the answer was probably comedic... BUT I thought I would both ask and look it up... You know diesel oil can be cooled and pumped to a heat exchanger... and it can also be entrained in a gas stream to add density and extra heat carrying capacity to that working fluid... as an entrained heavy fog / mist.... on the basis of mass...

@Lucifer333: The Nukleer Fans - If it's 35*C inside and 47*C outside... I am not turning them on and dry frying myself in my own home...

@Lucifer333: I had a small sniff of some blue print copying fluid around 47 years ago.... It was like lightening bolts exploding inside my head. It gave me a true appreciation of why people are frightened to death of ammonia leaks from big refrigeration plants and why they evacuate and run for their lives up wind of it..... Though I am very fond of liquorish with VERY strong amounts of ammonium chloride salts in it.... i.e. Salted Liquorish or Dutch Liqorish...
