The simulation for both systems show the space is satisfied at 72.5° in 11 min. The space profile is shown in Figure 11 with the conventional system on the left and AirBoss system on the right. The simulation video for the conventional system and AirBoss system are labeled 4way78.avi and A78.avi, respectively.


Figure 11. Space thermal profile for a conventional system and AirBoss system.
As you can see from the simulations, the return temperature to AirBoss system is ~3° less than a conventional system. Using equation 1, the AirBoss systems decreases the required compressor capacity by ~20 tons. This in turn reduces the amount of energy used by 5% even with the AirBoss units running continuously. The energy analysis is shown in Tables 7 and 8.
