| Abstract |
This paper proposes a methodology to solve problems upon the circuit design applied to inductor load by applying a circuit to improve power factor with is partial switching PFC module to the power supply system for cooling/heating inverter air conditioner and by designing an input power section in compliance with IEC555-2 on the basis of better input power factor and minimized harmonic components of current. On the other hand, this paper suggested how to control the increase of output voltage along with better current waves and partial switching PFC circuit as well, which can provide the output as twice as input voltage. This study applied a method to control the compressors of air conditioner by means of increased the voltage applicable to compressor motor by lowering switching number conclusively, it could solve questions about efficiency, economics, electronic noise and so forth. and so that the reasonable voltage for running motor could be set up along with lower power consumption of air conditioner than estimated. It was demonstrated that total sum of energy efficiency to operate system was increased to the extent of valid level. And all this merits and appropriateness was proved by computer simulation and experience. |
