Abstract:
A simultaneous heating/cooling multi air conditioner capable of performing heating and cooling simultaneously is provided. The simultaneous heating/cooling multi air conditioner includes a plurality of outdoor heat exchangers. The plurality of outdoor heat exchangers are configured to individually operate as a condenser or an evaporator depending on a heating/cooling ratio. Thus, even if the heating/cooling ratio changes, deterioration of the heating/cooling performance is prevented. When an operation mode is changed, continuous heating/cooling can be performed without stopping the system.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a hybrid generation system and a control method thereof. The hybrid generation system can maximize operation efficiency of a generator by selectively supplying normal utility power or power, which is generated by the generator, based on a power level supplied to a load. A hybrid generation system includes a generator and a generator controller. The generator generates power, and the generator controller performs a control activity to supply one of the normal utility power and the generated power to the load. The selective supply of the normal utility power or the generated power can maximize efficiency of the generator and as a result, a power consumption level of the hybrid generation system can be decreased, thereby reducing related costs.
Abstract:
A cogeneration system according to the present invention includes a waste heat supply heat exchanger that supplies waste heat, which is recovered from an engine, to a suction unit side of a compressor. Accordingly, the present invention is advantageous in that it can maximize the use efficiency of the waste heat. Furthermore, a low compression inverter type compressor having a compression ratio of 1.5 to 2.5, which is lower than that of the related art, is used. Therefore, the present invention is advantageous in that it can maximize the efficiency of the system since the waste heat supplied from the waste heat supply heat exchanger can be utilized to a greater extent. The present invention is also advantageous in that it can prevent damage to the compressor and can save consumption power since a difference in pressure between the suction and discharge units of the compressor becomes small.
