cooling are more economical (the electric<br />
consumption is reduces with 18%).<br />
Nevertheless, the systems with indirect<br />
cooling are being used due to the advantages<br />
given by: the possibility of using ammonia,<br />
the most advanced, the cheapest and most<br />
ecological refrigerant; it uses a low quantity<br />
of refrigerant with a favorable influence over<br />
the ambient; the possibility of being used in<br />
district cooling systems.<br />
Both systems have evolved towards variants<br />
with reversible functioning (insuring both the<br />
air conditioning and the building heating) or<br />
with heat recovery, which improve more and<br />
more their performances.<br />
Further, we present the experimental data for<br />
the specific indicators, for the production of<br />
menial refrigeration and air conditioning,<br />
using the most customary refrigerant<br />
(R134a).<br />
3.1. MENIAL REFRIGERATION<br />
The average energy consumption was<br />
calculated for certain equipments in<br />
accordance with the size of the menial<br />
consumer.One observes a continuous drop of<br />
the specific consumption caused by the<br />
equipment’s performance improvement.<br />
