Experimental investigation for solar thermal hybrid installs to inverter air conditioning vapour-compression cycle system

Abstract

This study is designed a new development and integration for the solar hybrid system connected to an inverter air conditioning system. This experimental system will provide an essential addition to the renewable energy future. The device is supplying the same cooling load with significantly less electricity demand. Apparatus system has the solar unit and solar collector with DC compressor that was used to compress the refrigerant in an air conditioning system, and that will effectively reduce the air conditioning electricity consumption. The solar collector unit is installed between the compressor and condenser, which provide part of compression pressure and heating by further superheating the refrigerant. The higher pressure and more substantial temperature difference enhance the condensation process in the condenser, resulting in the high-pressure liquid refrigerant. This configuration realty reduces energy consumption by reducing the load on the electric compressor.
