Simulation of the heat exchangers of a window air conditioner retrofitted with R407C.

Author(s) : DEVOTTA S., PADALKAR A. S., SANE N. K., et al.

Summary

The paper presents the results of simulation of the heat exchangers of an HCFC-22 window air conditioner retrofitted with R407C. The simulation was carried out using EVAP-COND, a heat exchanger model developed by NIST. A typical Indian window air conditioner of capacity 5.13 kW (1.5 TR) was selected for the study. The performance of the heat exchangers with R407C is compared with the baseline performance with HCFC-22. The simulated results were validated by comparing them with the experimental results obtained using window air conditioners retrofitted with R407C. The assessment parameters considered were the temperatures of the refrigerant and the air, and pressures with pressure drop in the refrigerant flow.
