Theoretical performance comparison of CO2 transcritical cycle technology versus HCFC-22 technology for a military packaged air conditioner application.

Author(s) : ROBINSON D. M., GROLL E. A.

Type of article: Article

Summary

The size and weight constraints of this military application render HCFC-22 based units less efficient than typical HCFC-22 unitary air conditioners of the same capacity. It is hypothesized that these same constraints will not affect the performance of a carbon dioxide based packaged air conditioner as severely. The evaporative capacity, compressor power, and COP were calculated for each cycle over a range of indoor and outdoor temperatures, and used as a basis for comparing the two cycles.
