Abstract

This paper deals with the improving performance of air conditioning system by reducing the compressor work. The copper tube with the cold-water supply reduces the temperature of the compressor and water is sprayed on the condenser coil. This reduces the temperature of condenser coil because specific heat capacity of water is 4.187kJ/kg, it is higher than that of air (0.718kJ/kg). Therefore, heat rejection can be carried out by both air and water. Spraying the water on the condenser coil also helps in cleaning its surface from the dust. When the temperature of condensing coil is reduced the work done by the compressor is also reduced. This reduction of heat is achieved by circulating the condensed water from the indoor system of an air conditioner. The waste water from the evaporator is used to cool the condenser; due to this additional cost for coolant is eliminated. The condensed water will have the temperature below the room temperature. So, the heat rejection can take place at faster rate. The compressor is prevented from overheating and other failure due to heat. There is continuous generation of water from the indoor unit, hence the cooling happened continuously. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
