Author(s) : NUSSBAUM O.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

COMPRESSORS ARE USUALLY HERMETIC OR OPEN TYPES WITH CAPACITIES IN THE 5 KILOW RANGE. ADVANTAGES OVER WATER-COOLED SYSTEMS ARE LOWER INITIAL AND OPERATING COSTS AND EASIER MAINTENANCE. THERE ARE, HOWEVER, A NUMBER OF PROBLEMS IN HOT WEATHER WITH A SUBSTANTIAL INCREASE IN ENERGY DEMAND. PROBLEMS CAN ALSO ARISE WHEN THE AIR TEMPERATURE FALLS BELOW 273 K (0 DEG C) ; THE CONDENSING PRESSURE MUST BE MAINTAINED BY FAN SPEED CONTROL, AIR FLOW CONTROL OR REDUCTION OF ACTIVE HEAT TRANSFER SURFACE.
