商用冷凝器喷雾器在标称三吨空调机组上进行了测试，以确定其对性能和其他运行参数的影响。喷雾器系统控制细水雾并将其引导至冷凝器表面，从而提高散热率，并改善整体系统性能。由于水的蒸发率受环境空气条件的影响，因此在进入冷凝器的空气的一系列干球和相对湿度条件下对该装置进行了测试。实验性空调由一个分体式系统的室外冷凝机组组成，经改造后可作为冷水机组运行。为了便于性能评估，将水制冷剂蒸发器替换为室内空气处理机组。 冷却效果通过测量通过蒸发器的温降和水流量来确定。除冷却能力外，还测量并记录了其他参数，包括压缩机背压、压缩机电流、总电流、进入和离开蒸发器的制冷剂温度，以及总冷凝单位功耗。本文将详细讨论测试设备、程序、仪器和结果。引用:俄亥俄州辛辛那提市ASHRAE学报第87卷第2部分

A commercially available condenser sprayer was tested on a nominal three-ton air conditioning unit to determine its effect upon performance and other operating parameters. The sprayer system controls and directs a fine mist of water onto the condenser surfaces, thereby enhancing the heat rejection rate, and improving overall system performance. Because the evaporation rate of the water is influenced by ambient air conditions, the unit was tested over a range of dry bulb and relative humidity conditions of the air entering the condenser.The experimental air conditioner consisted of the outdoor condensing unit of a split system, modified to operate as a chiller. To facilitate the evaluation of performance, a water refrigerant evaporator was substituted for the indoor air handling unit. Cooling effect was determined by measurement of temperature drop and flow rate of water through the evaporator. In addition to cooling Capacity, other parameters were measured and recorded, including compressor back pressure, compressor current, total current, refrigerant temperatures entering and leaving the evaporator, and total condensing unit power consumption.In this paper, the test equipment, procedures, instrumentation and results will be discussed in detail.
