Modeling of solar assisted air purifier for room air conditioning
Abstract
The main aim of the paper is to purify ambient air in the month of January and May in Guwahati city for an office room of 40 m3 with 6 persons and 5 LED(light emitting diode) bulbs of 9W each throughout the day. In January ambient air is purified and brought to reference state of 40% relative humidity, 24oC by using an air purifier, air blower, and vapour compression refrigeration system using 134a as refrigerant. Similarly in May ambient air is purified and brought to reference state of 50% relative humidity, 18oC by using an air purifier, air blower, and vapour compression refrigeration system using 134a as refrigerant. The power required for operating the blower, 5 LED bulbs and vapour compression refrigeration compressor are obtained from 9 solar photovoltaic modules in parallel, 2 in series of model SW 280 assisted by 219.536 Ah capacity rechargeable battery.
