 INTRODUCTION
 This technology is invented by a Japanese company named
Daikin in 1982. 
 Daikin called this technology by the name of ”VRV” i.e. Variable
refrigerant Volume and this name is trademark of Daikin so other
company are calling this technology as “VRF” (Variable
refrigerant flow).Both the things are same but their name is
different.
 It is also called as multi split type air conditioning because with
one outdoor you can use multiple indoor unit.
  In this technology cooling/heating is adjusted by adjusting
refrigerant flow and which is achieved by changing the speed
compressor . 
 Variable refrigerant volume System
• Adjust cooling and heating by adjusting refrigerant
flow and variable speed compressor .

•  Indoor units can be in different modes .

• VRF systems are equipped with enhanced features like

inverter drives, pulse modulating electronic expansion
valves and distributed controls.

Why VRV is used?

•Consistent comfort with quiet operation.

•Energy efficiency with less downtime.

•Simultaneous heating and cooling ensuring

consistent ease.

•Modern Controls for the modern consumer.

 Building Characteristics

• The maximum allowable vertical distance between an outdoor unit

and its farthest indoor unit is 50m.

• The maximum permissible vertical distance between two individual

indoor units is 15m.

•  The maximum overall refrigerant piping lengths between outdoor

and the farthest indoor unit is up to 180m. Note: The longer the
lengths of refrigerant pipes, the more expensive the initial and
operating costs.

Conclusion
The variable refrigerant flow
system is considered to be
one of the most promising
energy saving technologies
gaining its momentum in
recent years. A viable energy
efficient technology is needed
to conserve energy as well as
to achieve better human
comfort. So this is been
relatively new and efficient
way to design HVAC system
with VRF technology.
