The energy consumption of several central air conditioning systems in summer was researched by the method of exergy analysis. Combined with actual example,the exergy loss of all the equipments and the exergy efficiency of three systems were calculated. The results show that the exergy efficiency of three systems is very low. Relatively speaking, the exergy efficiency of primary return air conditioning system with supplying air in dew point is highest. The equipment of highest exergy loss is air-conditioned room, while the exergy loss of surface air cooler is smallest. Based on this, several improvement measures were proposed to reduce exergy loss and improve exergy efficiency.

When water chillers are arranged in series-series counterflow (SSCF), the compressor lift of each chiller is decreased in comparison with that of water chillers in parallel. This means that the compressor power of SSCF chillers is lower than that of parallel chillers. In this paper, models of the main components in an air conditioning system were developed and verified to predict the behaviors of the whole system with respect to SSCF chillers. The results showed that performance was maximized with three SSCF chillers when the system was operated with normal set points. The performance was further improved to 26% and decreased with the number of SSCF chillers when the system was operated with optimal set points. The SSCF chiller system also demonstrated higher exergy efficiency regardless of the number of SSCF chillers. The irreversibility of components in SSCF chillers was rather low. However, the irreversibility of the cooling tower and cooling coil was slightly higher and lower, respectively, than those in the parallel chiller system.

Air conditioning system consumes approximately 50% of the total energy consumption of buildings. Split-type air conditioner is the most widely used in residential and commercial buildings. As a result, enhancement on the performance of the air conditioners will yield a significant energy savings. The use of ejector as an expansion device on the split-type air conditioners is one method to increase the system performance. Exergy analysis on a split-type air conditioner uses an ejector as an expansion device at room and outdoor temperatures of 24 °C and 34 °C, respectively, yielded the percentage of exergy reduction up to 40.6%. Also, the exergy losses on in the compressor had the highest impact on the performance improvement of the split-type air conditioner.

Commercial multiple evaporators variable refrigerant flow (VRF) HVAC systems present many advantages such as being energy saving and the capability of adjusting refrigerant mass flow rate according to the change of high rises occurrence. This paper deals with an experimental control volume exergy analysis in a VRF air conditioning system. The experimental results show that the brunt of the total exergy destroyed in the whole system occurs in the outdoor unit, where the exergy destroyed in the condenser is more important. The values of coefficient of performance (COP) obtained for the tests increase as the system reaches operational conditions imposed in every indoor unit zone. The VRF system analyzed is highly sensitive to the action of the constant speed compressor. The use of an inverter compressor improves the system performance by adjusting the power consumption according to the cooling load in the evaporators.

Vapour Compression

The present study examines the performance of a hybrid air-conditioning system in which a vapour compression inverse cycle is integrated with an air dehumidification system working with hygroscopic solution and hydrophobic membrane. This approach may prove to be a valid alternative to the traditional summertime air-conditioning system, which involves cooling the air to below its dew point and subsequently reheating it. The system examined simultaneously cools and dehumidifies the air in an air-LiCl solution membrane vapour exchanger before it enters the conditioned environment. The LiCl solution is cooled by means of a vapour compression inverse cycle that uses the refrigerant KLEA 407C. The heat rejected by the condenser is used to regenerate the solution. A SIMULINK calculation programme was used to simulate the system in steady-state conditions. The performance of the system was analysed on varying significant operating parameters and was compared with that of a traditional direct-expansion air-conditioning plant. The results of the simulations revealed significant power saving which, in certain operating conditions, was as much as 50%.
