Air-conditioning (AC) system is typically used to remove the sensible and latent heat loads in buildings. It provides cool and dehumidified air to meet the occupants comfort and good indoor air quality (IAQ). Improper design and analysis of AC process resulted in high cooling energy and ...
We innovated on existing studies in this area because we derived our country-level indicator as an average marginal effect after conditioning on several household characteristics. The findings of the analysis conducted across European countries suggest that only in a limited group of countries do the ...
States generally allow a broad range of end-use efficiency programs to count toward energy efficiency requirements, including home weatherization; light bulb and appliance replacement; improvements in industrial heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems; and many others. Measurement and ...
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To estimate objectively the quantity of power consumed by one's own air conditioning apparatus from the results of comparative estimates of the air conditioning apparatus of a specified user and other air conditioning apparatuses and to investigate the cause of an increase at...
Packaged ammonia chillers (PACs) are similar to R- 134a chillers. Both are factory-assembled refrigeration systems that use conventional refrigeration drivelines. PACs are becoming increasingly popular for non-air-conditioning applications. In this paper, the author analyzes ammonia's competitiveness in ...
Both synthetic lubricants are widely used in air-conditioning compressors and have been optimized for use with hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants. However, it is still not clear which lubricant is more suitable for use in compressors operating with CO2 as a refrigerant. This study compares the ...
Refrigerant leakage determining method for air conditioning system, involves comparing measured high pressure with reference high pressure, and determining lack of refrigerant amount from difference between measured and reference pressuresThe method involves implementing sucking at a suction side of a ...
Method for controlling speed of fan of air-conditioning apparatus in motor car, involves comparing speed with comparison value, and adjusting speed to preset value if speed is greater than comparison value and maneuver process is detectedThe method involves detecting maneuver process e.g. parking in...
Furthermore, most anesthetics actually provide benefits with respect to local inflammation (see, as an example, Cruz et al., 2017) and isoflurane conditioning promotes the survival of stromal bone marrow cells (Sun et al., 2015). This would yield to an immune/inflammatory gene response opposite...
Air-conditioning was eagerly adopted by Qataris after the nationalisation of their oil and gas reserves soon made them some of the wealthiest people in the world. In recent years, however, local officials have started to consider the social and environmental benefits of other ways of living ...
