Refrigeration cycle modelling: Application for simulating air conditioning system

Abstract

Refrigeration cycle is a thermodynamic cycle that transfer heat
energy from a cold space to a warmer one, while thermal energy is
naturally absorbed from higher temperature environment and released
to lower temperature space. Therefore, the thermal comfort in
building could be established during climate extreme condition in
summer and winter. In this paper, theoretical thermodynamic cycle
and heat transfer is studied to refrigeration cycle in air conditioning
system. In fact, this model is applied for simulating HVAC system of
PREDIS MHI platform in Grenoble Electrical Engineering
Laboratory (G2Elab) in framework of HOMES project with
cooperation of Schneider Electric and CIAT.
