I have a unique idea of putting a mini split AC compressor in a car but using car parts (I'll only use the compressor, the evaporator, condenser etc will left stock from the car.
I'm planning to get a 0. 5hp or 1hp compressor (I might need to upgrade my alternator) and get a 1500w sine wave inverter (or make a custom one myself with EGS002 module so I can integrate things better with the car.
This also gives me the opportunity to run my car's AC without turning on my cars engine by using a transfer switch to power it from my house (I do a lot of things in my car) and use a server power supply to power the auxiliary condenser fan, the blower fan and charge the battery at the same time.
I'll do this when my Denso 10PA15C dies (i bought it used. What do you guys think?

_You forgot to mention that electronic devices are also DC, alternating current is only meant for traveling distances. Once you plug your device into an AC wall the power also gets converted into DC. None of the components on the motherboard is alternating current. _

I do not consider this to be true AC, but rather faux AC. You never get a true sine wave.
It is always +120v or -120v just turned for varying amounts of time.
True AC fluctuates between 0v and +120v and 0v and -120v over the prescribed amount of time.

Pictures a TV but ironically you would need the inverter to power it as that's the source its been designed to run off but its internally rectifying to dc at around 90v to drive the backlighting and usually 12v and 5v for the rest of the circuitry.

So thats how a simulated sine wave is produced, but how is a pure sine wave produced like in a UPS from the battery? Is it simply a better grade of switches operating even faster? Or is there something else involved?
reply

but do you even need wave? I always thought it is simply a consequence of the way we produce AC, but not something desirable, that's why 3 phases are considered better so you can smooth out those waves
reply

How does passing the square wave through a transformer affect the shape of the output wave? Do you get another square wave? Or is there some smoothing of the shape?

You need a school already! I would definitely enroll! Your articulation and demos make engineering so simplified! Please Inform when you do

This was very fantastic! Now I'd like to know why an AC appliance draws 10x its rated amps from the DC source when using an inverter?

Love the videos as always. Wish you wouldnt start by using abbreviations IGBTS without saying what that stands for.
