ShareAerodynamic performance of air-cooled condensing units.
Author(s) : MELO C., POTTKER G., PEREIRA R. H.
Summary
The aerodynamic performance of two condensing units is investigated in the paper. A testing facility was built according to AMCA 210-99 and used to evaluate the aerodynamic performance of condensing units as a whole, and also of their components, axial fans and condensers. Typical performance curves, such as fan static pressure vs. airflow rate, fan power input vs. airflow rate and condenser impedance vs. airflow rate, were obtained. The condensing unit operation point was also measured and compared to that obtained through the intersection of the fan and condenser characteristic curves. It was shown that the theoretical and measured operation points are practically the same only when the fan characteristic curve is obtained using the condensing unit wall ring.
