Rating of Mixed Split Residential Air Conditioners
Abstract
A methodology is presented for rating the performance
of mixed, split residential air conditioners.
The method accounts for the impact on system
performance of the indoor evaporator, expansion
device and fan; three major components that are
likely to be substituted for the matched components
in a mixed system. The method allows calculation of
capacity at 95°F rating point and seasonal energy
efficiency ratio, SEER, without performing laboratory
test of the complete system. Limitations of
the procedure, present work, and anticipated
improvements are also discussed.
