本文讨论了空调/热泵压缩机应用中提高季节能效比（S.E.E.R.）的电机设计要求问题。考虑了拟议的能源部（DOE）室外温度曲线以及近似的压缩机小时/负荷曲线。研究了几种设计变化，以确定装置在一年的运行中可以实现哪些改进（如有）。此外，这项研究还包括了美国两个不同地区的实际使用小时数的变化以及热泵和空调的划分。希望这些信息能够帮助我们深入了解针对特定地理区域“定制”的电机的设计要求。引文:德克萨斯州休斯顿ASHRAE学报第88卷第1部分研讨会

This paper addresses the problem of motor design requirements for an improved Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (S.E.E.R.) for air conditioning/heat pump compressor applications. The proposed Department of Energy (DOE) outdoor temperature profiles together with the approximate compressor hour/load profiles are considered. Several design variations are investigated to determine what improvements, if any, can be realized in the unit for a year's operation. In addition, the study includes the variation both in actual hours of use and the division in heat pump and air conditioning for two separate regions in the United States. It is hoped that this information may lend insight into the design requirements of motors that might be "customized" for particular geographical areas.
