Method of performance evaluation of capacity control type room air-conditioner

摘要

Now, most of room air-conditioners sold domestically are inverter type of the capacity control model. Since Coefficient of Performance COP which signifies energy conservation is a non-dimensional number, the consumer can hardly understand it easily. Also, COP is difficult to designate the electric power consumption amount value when the inverter air conditioner of various operating states are actually used. Thereupon, I would like to introduce the new method of calculating the electric power consumption within a given period of time, which The Japan Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Industry Association (JRAIA) provided, to desire the standard of the amount of the electric power consumption when assuming that the consumer actually uses the inverter air conditioner.
