I am currently doing a research on energy consumption of Room Air conditioners based on BEE rating. Are there any available industry benchmarks for energy consumption of Air conditioners by rating of the AC?
For instance, for the given scenario (defined constants) below, any inputs on how to arrive at standard (estimated) consumption?
Scenario:
1. Average city temperature: 30 deg C (day), 22 deg C (night)
2. Room Size: 16'x10'x12' (ground floor, in a building with 3 floors)
3. Windows
a. East facing - 6'x6', 1 window
b. West facing - 6'x6', 1 window
c. Other sides - NIL
4. Occupancy – 2 people
5. Run time – 16 hrs (8 hrs during the day, 8 hrs during the night)
6. Desired Room Temperature – 21 deg C
a.
A/C Capacity
(in Tons)
Standard Energy Consumption (in kWh)
