AIR-CONDITIONING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240230137 titled 'AIR-CONDITIONING APPARATUS
The abstract of the patent application describes an air-conditioning apparatus that selects a dehumidifying operation mode based on the sensible heat ratio difference when transitioning from a cooling operation mode.
- The apparatus determines the sensible heat ratio difference by comparing the target sensible heat ratio with the theoretical minimum possible sensible heat ratio.
- It uses values such as indoor temperature, target indoor temperature, target indoor humidity, enthalpy of indoor air, enthalpy of blown air from the indoor unit, and enthalpy of sensible heat to calculate the sensible heat ratio difference.
- By analyzing these values, the apparatus can efficiently select the most suitable dehumidifying operation mode for optimal performance.
- This innovation aims to improve energy efficiency and overall effectiveness of the air-conditioning system.
- The technology enhances the user experience by providing customized dehumidifying operation modes based on specific indoor conditions.
Potential Applications: - Residential air-conditioning systems - Commercial HVAC systems - Industrial cooling units
Problems Solved: - Inefficient dehumidification processes - Lack of customization in operation modes - Energy wastage in air-conditioning systems
Benefits: - Energy savings - Improved indoor air quality - Enhanced user comfort
Commercial Applications: Title: Energy-Efficient Dehumidification Technology for Air-Conditioning Systems This technology can be applied in various commercial settings such as office buildings, shopping malls, and hotels to enhance indoor comfort while reducing energy consumption.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the apparatus calculate the sensible heat ratio difference? The apparatus calculates the sensible heat ratio difference by comparing the target sensible heat ratio with the theoretical minimum possible sensible heat ratio. 2. What are the key benefits of using this technology in air-conditioning systems? This technology offers energy savings, improved indoor air quality, and enhanced user comfort, making it a valuable addition to any air-conditioning system.
Original Abstract Submitted
an air-conditioning apparatus includes configured to, when a cooling operation mode is changed into one of multiple dehumidifying operation modes, select the one of the multiple dehumidifying operation modes on the basis of a value of a sensible heat ratio difference �shf that is a difference between a target sensible heat ratio acquired from an indoor temperature detected by an indoor temperature sensor, a target indoor temperature, and target indoor humidity and a theoretical minimum possible sensible heat ratio acquired from enthalpy of an indoor air, enthalpy of blown air from the indoor unit when relative humidity is 100%, and enthalpy of sensible heat.
