Summary

FOUR DIFFERENT TYPES OF WINDOW AIR CONDITIONERS WERE STUDIED IN A SPECIALLY CONSTRUCTED TEST ROOM TO SEE IF THEY DELIVERED A EVEN FLOW. THEY DID NOT. THERE WAS EVEN UNDERPRESSURE OBSERVED AT SOME POINTS OF THE OUTLET GRILL. MEASUREMENTS WERE MADE AT 60 TO 80 POINTS OF EACH UNIT. TWO UNITS HAD ACTUAL COOLING CAPACITY OF 40% LESS THAN CLAIMED, ALONG WITH VERY UNEVEN AIR OUTPUT. THE TWO OTHERS HAD 85% OF THE COOLING CAPACITY CLAIMED, WITH MORE OR LESS EVEN OUTPUT. THEIR RELATIVELY GOOD PERFORMANCE WAS PROBABLY DUE TO THEIR BETTER DESIGNED AIR DUCTS. M. C.
