In the present study, the cooling performances of the air-conditioner applied the fin-tube and aluminum PF heat exchangers have been experimentally investigated by using the calorimeter. The experiment is carried out in the conditions of the standard temperature and the low temperature. Fin type of PF heat exchanger is a triangler and squarer form. PF heat exchanger has smaller refrigerant weight and larger capacity and COP han the fin-tube heat exchanger. The performance of PF-2 heat exchanger with the squarer in is more excellent than that of PF-1 heat exchanger with the triangler fin. The high pressure of PF heat exchanger decreases about 7%, compared to the fin-tube heat exchanger. Also, CSPF of the fin-tube and PF heat exchanger is evaluated.

In recent years, it becomes a worldwide trend that the power utilities focus their attention to Demand Side Management. Increasing Electric power consumption, they adopt a direct load management to accomplish low cost and stability of electric supply. Following this trend, KEPCO is researching a Direct Load Control System for Air Conditioner. This Paper presents the development results of the Direct Load Control System to Control electric power consumption of Conditioner in summer period this year.

The main noise source of the BLDC rotary compressor for air conditioner was analyzed by using the measurement of noise and vibration, noise contour, and experimental modal analysis. The source is presumed to the mechanical resonance excited by the electromagnetic attractive force of the BLDC motor. To reduce the excessive noise of the BLDC rotary compressor due to the mechanical resonance, air-gap was enlarged. Its validation was conducted by the analysis of the electromagnetic attractive force which is generated by the BLDC motor. By enlarging the length of air-gap, the noise in the compressor and air conditioner was significantly improved by 2.5dB(A) and 4.5dB(A), respectively.

An experimental study using a psychrometric calorimeter was conducted to investigate the temperature and pressure mea surement errors permitted for determining cooling capacity of an air conditioner. First, the instrument calibration was made in accordance with the related test methods and guidelines in order to accurately evaluate basic performance (cooling capacity and airs flow rate). Secondly, a parametric study was performed to examine the effect of measurement error involved if temperature and pressure measuring instruments on the cooling capacity calculation. From the results, it was found that the degree of accuracy for both temperature and pressure measurements played an important role on the error occurring in the determination of cooling capacity and needed to be maintained within a certain value to guarantee required accuracy of cooling capacity.

This paper presents a numerical evaluation of the flow rate of air conditioner outdoor unit by investigating the effects of fan location and shroud shape. To determine optimal design parameters, we investigated the exhaust flow rate by changing shroud height, fan height, fan guide height, and fan width. The 3rd order central composite design was performed to select three most important parameters affecting the exhaust flow rate. According to the result of response surface method, the exhaust flow rate of the optimum model increased by 6.25% compared to that of the base model.
