DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF AIR CONDITIONING CUM WATER DISPENSER SYSTEM

This project “AIR CONDITIONING CUM WATER DISPENSER SYSTEM” makes the study of the development of a water dispenser system using a normal air conditioner. The main aim behind developing this device is to develop a multifunctional unit which can provide hot water, cold water along with regular space/air conditioning cycle. The design mainly consists of compressor, condenser, evaporator, expansion valve, copper coil, temperature and pressure gauges and tumblers. The actual cycles and operating conditions for air and water cycle are presented in this project. It comprises of air cycle and water cycle combined with a common compressor. Systematic analysis after the completion of project was carried out. The readings obtained were noted down in a proper tabular column. Then calculations for determination of COP of air cycle, COP of water cycle, effectiveness of condenser and evaporator, heat transferred by evaporator and friction factor of capillary tube were carried out. The results obtained were plotted in graphs.
