Aspects of household cooling technology.

Number: pap. 2189

Author(s) : MRZYGLOD M., HOLZER S.

Summary

Actually available household cooling appliances of the highest efficiency class may consume less then 10W average electrical power. To achieve such low power consumption special challenges for the cooling system had to be overcome. The related cooling system design has to deal with several effects, which arise from the corresponding low cooling capacity demand, start/stop cycles and additional power consumption by control accessories. The paper presents symptomatic aspects of cooling technology, which have not been fully considered in the past or had only a negligible impact on electrical energy consumption. Those aspects are presented as qualitative descriptions of the phenomena, not as definite data or solutions. Some items can be discussed as evolution of key performance data during the last years, like efficiency of compressors at specific operation points or power consumption of electrical components.
