The purpose of this study is to develop the air-conditioning unit combined with the lighting unit for workspace and to supply its performance data at architectural design stage. The air-conditioning unit is one of the components of a workspace integrated unit, which can be defined as the planning unit satisfying the environmental comfort criteria of workspace. Air-conditioning diffusers are classified according to throws and features by literature review and case study. Then diffusers are combined with the lighting unit. Through the CFD simulation, the thermal performance of each unit was evaluated and finally various air-conditioning units combined with the lighting units were developed.

This paper proposed the ways for reduction of the prominent peak of the tone noise in air conditioning units. In order to find out the sources of the tone noise, the resonant frequencies and modes of the fans were investigated. Also, the effects of the ambient temperatures and material properties of the fans on the tone noise were studied. From the experiments, it was shown that the tone noise was greatly influenced by the torsional resonance of the fan and motor system and commutation frequency. In other words, the torsional resonance of the fan and motor system has not to be close to the commutation frequency (torque ripple frequency) which creates a rate of change in the angular acceleration in order to reduce the tone noise in air conditioning units.

This paper is suggesting a new technology for refrigerant amount detection of a system air-conditioner installed under various installation conditions. System air-conditioner was introduced to domestic market first in 2000. It consists of one or a series of outdoor units and a number of indoor units connected with single pipe line to the outdoor unit. The system can vary the capacity from 2.0 kW to 186 kW. For the system Installed under long and high-elevated condition, about 100 kg of refrigerant is charged in the whole system. In this paper, the new technology RAD (Refrigerant Amount Detection) with edge technology of refrigerant cycle control and measurement of a system air conditioner was developed and investigated for its application for the various installation conditions.

The purpose of this study is to suggest the concept of an integrated unit and to develop integrated units considering the layout of luminaires and diffusers in workspace. An integrated unit can be defined as a planning unit which satisfies the environment comfort criteria of workspace. Integrating process of each unit was proposed by considering the current workspace planning process. Luminaire and diffuser types are classified by surveying the workspace of the domestic and foreign office buildings. Several lighting units and air-conditioning units were developed by visual and thermal simulation, and integrated units for various architectural module which satisfies the visual and thermal comfort criteria were drawn from those units.

Instead of testing split air conditioners, an empirically based calculation procedure may be used to estimate the Energy Efficiency Ratio at ARI A test conditions. Typically, the system involving the indoor unit well sold and the given outdoor unit is called the matched system. All other systems involving a given outdoor unit and other indoor units are called the mixed systems. To estimate the EER(A) for the mixed systems, EER(A) for the matched system must be known, Generally, the EER(A) for the matched system is known. This procedure relies on independent measurements and calculations made on an outdoor unit in conjunction with a matched indoor and a mixed indoor coil. A heat pump simulation model was used to quantify the effects of individual system components on the system performance. The procedure is applicable to all air-conditioning units having rated cooling capacities less than 19,000W and charged with refrigerant 22.

The heating and cooling performance of system multi-air conditioner under high-head and long-line conditions are experimentally investigated. The maximum head and tube length were 110 m and 1000 m, respectively. The experimental system was composed of 4 outdoor units with module systems, and 13 indoor units which were joined with the mode change unit by single-tube circuit. Field tests without indoor and outdoor temperature control were performed in a general office building with 22 different working conditions. Experimental results were prepared on the p-h diagram. Also the oil level in the compressor was normally maintained at the safety zone for the system multi-air conditioner with high-head and long-line conditions.

The heating and cooling performances of system multi-air conditioner for various refrigerant flow rates with high-head and long-line conditions are experimentally investigated. The maximum head and tube length were 110 m and 1000 m, and the two different adjustments of refrigerant flow rates were +20 % and -20 %, respectively. The experimental system was composed of 4 outdoor units with module systems, and 13 indoor units which were joined with the mode change unit by single-tube circuit. Field tests without indoor and outdoor temperature control were performed in a general office building with two different refrigerant flow rates. Especially, the oil level in the compressor was normally maintained at the safety zone. Experimental results were prepared on the p-h diagram.

The new HVAC system to lower the conveyance energy and building height using IAV (Increasing Air Volume) technique is developed. IAV units which are equipped in each zone carry out air-conditioning and supply fresh air by induction of outdoor air in main duct. The design program which decides size of OAHU and IAV unit according to air conditioning load and fresh air demand of each zone is presented. The control system is developed to operate efficiently HVAC system and IAV unit, so that individual zone operation and well-deal with partial load and IAQ problem are possible. The new system is investigated in model building and makes more profit in conveyance energy, size of air conditioning facilities room and building height than VAV system. But in construction cost it is worse by about 15 per-centage.
