  • Microchannel heat exchangers as outdoor coils entered residential cooling only air conditioning applications and are being considered for the residential heat pump applications as well. Due to regulatory efficiency requirements, sound constraints, and a non-optimized heat exchanger design, the size of the outdoor heat exchanger is typically large. As a result, the heat pump and air conditioning systems incur higher costs and have a higher refrigerant charge. Current legislation limits the amount of charge of refrigerant systems, and heat exchangers in particular, containing most low global warming potential refrigerants (currently classified as A2L substances).
  • Microchannel heat exchangers have a small internal volume and therefore store less refrigerant charge than conventional round tube plate fin heat exchangers. Although a lower refrigerant charge is generally beneficial, the smaller internal volume of microchannel heat exchangers makes them extremely sensitive to overcharge or undercharge situations, which could result in refrigerant charge imbalance, degrade refrigerant system performance, and cause nuisance shutdowns. In addition, the refrigerant charge contained in the manifolds of the microchannel heat exchanger, particularly when the heat exchanger operates as a condenser, is significant, such as about half of the total heat exchanger charge. As a result, the refrigerant charge reduction potential of the heat exchanger is limited.
