Definitions
- HVAC heating, ventilation, and air conditioning
- Thermodynamic vapor-compression systems are used to regulate environmental conditions within an enclosed space.
- such systems have a circulation fan that pulls air from the enclosed space through ducts and pushes the air back into the enclosed space through additional ducts after conditioning the air (e.g ., heating or cooling).
- a refrigerant may flow in a circuit between two heat exchangers, typically coils.
- One heat exchanger may be "inside” the structure (the “indoor heat exchanger” or “indoor coil”) and the other heat exchanger may be outside the structure (the “outdoor heat exchanger” or “outdoor coil”).
- the refrigerant may absorb heat as it passes through the outdoor heat exchanger and release heat as it passes through the indoor heat exchanger.
- the refrigerant may absorb heat as it passes through the indoor heat exchanger and release heat as it passes through the outdoor heat exchanger.
- Heat pumps can reverse the direction of refrigerant flow, to change between heating and air conditioning.
- a reversing valve typically controls the direction of refrigerant flow.
- State-of-the-art HVAC rooftop systems utilize two thermodynamic circuits, each thermodynamic circuit has a dedicated outdoor coil and shares an indoor coil with the other thermodynamic circuit. These state-of-the-art systems are designed for highest efficiency in either the cooling, air-conditioning (AC), mode or heating, heat pump (HP), mode.
- the state-of-the-art HVAC systems do not accommodate a configuration where the highest level of efficiency is reached in part-load for both air-conditioning and heat pump modes. Part load working conditions may be the most important for regulations and impact rooftop efficiency.
