SEER AND THERMAL COMFORT.

Summary

THIS PAPER CONSIDERS THE SYSTEM ENERGY EFFICIENCY COEFFICIENT DURING THE ON/OFF CYCLE, AS DISTINCT FROM THE COP OF A STEADY OPERATING STATE. A CAPILLARY TUBE CIRCUIT WITH ON/OFF CAPACITY CONTROL LOSES CAPACITY AND OPERATING EFFICIENCY BECAUSE WARM HIGH PRESSURE LIQUID PASSES INTO THE EVAPORATOR WHEN STOPPED. THE ADDITION OF A SOLENOID VALVE BEFORE THE CAPILLARY PREVENTS A WET RETURN ON RESTART AND RESULTS IN BETTER HEAT EXCHANGE, WITH INCREASED LATENT HEAT EXTRACTION ON COOLING CYCLE, AND BETTER COP. COMPUTER MODELS SHOW THE ADVANTAGE OF INTEGRATED ELECTRONIC EXPANSION VALVE CONTROL DURING START-UP TRANSIENT CONDITIONS. A.R.T.
