Novel Techniques for Saving Energy Consumption in Air Conditioning Systems

Abstract

Electrical energy consumption in air conditioning systems (ACS) is a sizeable portion of global electrical energy consumption. This means that it has a considerable share of global warming, which needs to be reduced. This article reviews the causes of excessive ACS energy consumption as well as modern trends in management and control of ACS energy consumption. Energy demand and consumption are high for air conditioning, especially in humid and hot weather. Opportunities for saving energy in cooling and heating systems depend mainly on reducing loads. Reducing the thermal loads can be achieved through new techniques Brief informational review of some of the most used ACS specifies cooling and heating loads and new techniques to reduce its energy consumption. Performance of ACSs for various types is mostly identified as the ratio of the active or beneficial output to the requisite total input of the equipment. The target to decrease the energy consumption of electrical systems is an essential step to define the components and equipment that are used to build the system and select the types that are considered as an energy saver. After ending this essential step we can concentrate on selecting and improving the overall system performance. Hence, this article provides review information of the most ACSs and specify its new techniques of energy consumption reduction.

Increasing performance of chiller systems in high-rise buildings by load optimization

“…Many researchers have studied the chiller system. El Berry proposed a novel method of minimizing the power consumption of a chiller [12]. The study predicted the model and investigated the optimum operating variables of the chiller system by comparing several models.…”
