Type of article: Article

Summary

THE AUTHOR SEEKS TO SHOW THAT RECIRCULATING AIR CONDITIONERS ARE MEANT ABOVE ALL FOR SUMMER COOLING AND NOT FOR VENTILATION. IT IS RECOMMENDED NOT TO INTEGRATE THE VENTILATION APPLIANCE INTO THE COMPACT AIR CONDITIONER. SUCH AIR CONDITIONERS ARE ESPECIALLY ECONOMICAL WHEN NECESSARY COOLING LOADS ARE DETERMINED AFTER THE BUILDING IS ALREADY CONSTRUCTED. THEY PRESENT A PROBLEM, HOWEVER, IN YEAR-ROUND CONSTRUCTION, DUE TO AERATION AND DEAERATION WHEN THE VENTILATION RATE MUST BE HIGHER THAN 30 % OF THE SUPPLY AIR.
