Analysis of Energy Efficient Panel Air Conditioner for CNC Machine Control Panel

摘要

The effective cooling of electronic components in the control panel of computer numerical control machine is very important in modern production trends to increase its working life. Cooling effect of the existing CNC machine control panel has been studied to ascertain the life of electronic components. In this paper a cost effective panel air conditioner has been proposed and its performance is evaluated and compared with the existing one. It is concluded that the proposed panel air conditioner can save 10% energy and improves 12% of its service life of CNC machine control panel. Contributing factor is the performance of the compressor with good system components selection factors and system processing techniques which could outperform the conventional unit. A well balanced design of a panel air conditioning system always ensures that the system gives optimum cooling without exceeding the limits of the operating parameters of the system components.
