Chapter5 Air Conditioning Summer & Winter Air Conditioning Cycles by Assoc. Prof. Hany Elsawy Summer Air Conditioning Cycles > Summer air conditioning: In most of the places the summer season is hot and humid. Hence, in order to provide comfortable conditions to the occupants during summer, it is required to supply cold and dry air to the occupied space. This req es systems wherein the hot and humid air cam be cooled to temperatures lower than the dew point temperature, so that the water vapor im air can be removed by condensation, and the resulting cold and dehumidified air supplied to the conditioned space in required quantity for providing thermal comfort. Thus it can be seen that a typical summer air conditioning system requires a refrigeration system that reduces the temperature of the air to temperatures much lower than the surroundings. Of course, in some areas such as deserts, the summer is hot and dry. Air conditioning systems for these hot and dry climates also requi cooling of air below the ambient temperatures, however, in stead of removing water vapor it may be required to add water to the air supplied to the conditioned space. Summer Air Conditioning Cycles > Cooling Load Typical sources of heat and moisture, which are commonly called cooling loads are: ‘¢ Transmission heat gain from outdoors through the roof, exterior walls, and glass windows or skylights. (Sensible) ¢ Transmission heat gain through the ceiling, interior partition walls, and the floor. (Sensible) Solar radiation heat gain through glass windows or skylights. (Sensible) * Internal heat generated lights in the space. (Sensible) © Internal heat and moisture generated by people, appliances, and equipmentin the space. (Sensible & Latent) * Heat gain from air infiltrating into the space from outdoors. (Sensible & Latent) Other common sources of heat and moisture include: * Heat gain from outdoor air deliberately brought into the building for ventilation purposes. (Sensible & Latent) © Heat generated by the fans and motors in the system.
