Next Generation Advanced High-Efficiency DX Air Conditioner Demonstration

Abstract

The over 100,000 package DX air-conditioning and heat-pump units installed at DoD facilities generally are much less energy efficient than the best available technologies. This demonstration of next generation (NexGen) technology addresses challenging DX unit disadvantages and greatly enhances their performance. NexGen units surpass current, future, and anticipated energy efficiency goals; meet demanding ESCO cost, reliability and maintainability requirements; and meet new needs for remote automated fault detection and diagnostics (AFDD). The technology is rendered via lower-cost, readily available components, which are uniquely compatible with DoD facilities design and maintenance realities.
