Rancang Bangun dan Pengujian Pemanas Air dengan Memanfaatkan Panas Buang Kondensor Siklus Kompresi Uap Hybrid dengan Kapasitas 120 Liter

Abstract

Human being always want the new improvement in order to get efficiency and practically. One of the improvements here is to combine two objectives by using one machine. As an example, on one hand split type Air Conditioner can be used to condition room and on the other hand it can be used to power the water heater in producing hot water. This is the main background of this research. In this work, the conventional split type vapour compression cycle with compressor power of 750 Watt has been modified to produce cooling and to produce hot water. The capacity of the water heater is 120 litres. The heating coil made of copper tube 10 mm in diameter and 5 m length and it consists of 12 elbows. The measurements results show that water with initial temperature of 300 C can be heated up to 470 C. The main conclusion here is that, the waste heat from the condenser can be used to power the heater in producing hot water
