The high cost of electricity rates has affected the demands of the public for the availability of energy-efficient air conditioning systems. This study aims to obtain data on improving performance of air conditioner using capillary tube in tube heat exchangers. Tests were carried out on a wall mounted split AC capacity of 9000 Btu/h which was modified using a heat exchanger with capillary tube in tube heat exchanger. The results showed that the installation of a capillary tube in tube heat exchanger on a wall mounted split AC resulted in an increase RE and COP of 13.2% and 14.9%, respectively. In addition, the room cooling time in the TiTHX capillary mode testing is shorter. So it has implications for lighter compression work and saves the power consumption required by AC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
