Seasonal Applicability of Refrigerant Release Technology in Room Air Conditioner
نویسندگان
چکیده
The refrigerant release technology relieves even eliminates the over-compression loss of scroll compressor by bypassing the refrigerant in the compression chamber to the suction pipe under small system pressure ratio conditions. Because the room air conditioner works in mild conditions at most of the time, its seasonal energy performance is expected to be effectively improved by the refrigerant release technology. Accordingly, the effect of refrigerant release on the seasonal performance of the room air conditioner is analyzed and the applicability is evaluated in this paper. The results show that, for the fixed speed air conditioner, the refrigerant release technology decreases 14%~24% and 20%~23% seasonal energy consumption for residential and office building, respectively. The refrigerant release technology has good applicability for the room air conditioner.

The use of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) has been widely restricted. They have been replaced with hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) in order to protect the ozone layer. However, the leakage of refrigerant into the air from active or end-of-life air conditioners is a serious environmental issue owing to the high global warming potential (GWP) of HFCs. Therefore, replaci...
