The performance test of the AES ona conventional split type air conditioner has been coducted following the methodology as outlined in the testing procedures section of this report. Based on the testing results, we can draw the following conclusions.
From the test results (Appendix I) it shows that the power consumption of the air conditioner, when working eith the AES, is 14.3% less than that witjout the AES. Meanwhile, the resulting mean indoor environment conditions i.e the dry bulb and wet bulb temperatures, are 25.67 deg C DB/19.31 deg C WB when using the AES and 24.72 deg C DB/17.58 deg C WB when no AES respectively.
When the air conditioner is operated with the AES, it is noted that a more constant room temperature is maintained throughout the testing period. Whereas when the air conditioner is operated without the AES, the room temperature becomes stable after the room temperature drops from 26 deg C to the set point of 24 deg C (Appendix II). |
