Kicking the Air Conditioner Habit
Air conditioning has become an expected feature in new California homes, even those in cooler coastal locations. Because many Californians run their air conditioners for just a few days out of the year, air conditioners use only 10%–12% of the energy in homes, yet they are responsible for about 43% of the residential peak load. This load from hell has been the bane of California utilities, and ...
متن کاملWindow Air Conditioner with Orthodox Refrigerants
The system design of window air conditioner does not evolve in one day. Due to the continous efforts are taken by the refrigeration and air conditionging professionals, successful and economic models of window air conditioners are currently used. This paper states about the development of window air conditioner with phase change material and water as refrigerants. Developed air conditioner was ...
متن کاملNew Lube 0il for Stationary Air Conditioner
Replacing R-22 by HFC refrigerants in stationary air conditioners is forcing oil producers to develop a new lubricant which has good miscibility with HFC, lubricity and electric resistivity. Mitsui has selected a carbonate compound for a new lubricant candidate with HFC and developed it forcusing on its thermal stability, which is one of the most important factors to get good lubricity. By supp...
متن کاملPulmonary functions in air conditioner users.
Air conditioning may affect human health since it has profound effect on our environment, than just lowering temperature. The present study was planned to assess the effect of air conditioners (AC) on pulmonary functions in young healthy non-smoker males. The study group comprised of ten subjects who were using AC's in their cars for at least 1 hr daily since last 6 months. While ten subjects w...
متن کاملThe Development Of High Efficiency Air Conditioner With Two Compressors Of Different Capacities
An air-conditioner driven by two compressors with different capacity was developed to improve energy efficiency by use high efficiency components and load matching. An algorithm for driving the two-compressor system was devised for optimum capacity modulation, and seasonal energy efficiency increased by 22%, when compared with that of a conventional air-conditioner of the same rated cooling cap...
