ODP AND GWP

 ODP Ozone Depletion Potential.

 – Ozone Depletion Potential is a number that refers to the amount of ozone depletion caused by a substance. The ODP is the ratio of the impact on ozone of a chemical compared to the impact of a similar mass of CFC-11. Thus, the ODP of CFC-11 is defined to be 1.0. Other CFCs and HCFCs have ODPs that range from 0.01 to 1.0. HFCs have zero ODP because they do not contain chlorine.

˃ GWP - Global Warming Potential 

GWP is a number that refers to the amount of global warming caused by a substance. The GWP is the ratio of the warming caused by a substance to the warming caused by a similar mass of carbon dioxide. Thus, the GWP of CO2 is defined to be 1.0. CFC-12 has a GWP of 8,500, while CFC-11 has a GWP of 5,000. Various HCFCs and HFCs have GWPs.

The GWP for a gas is a measure of the total energy that a gas absorbs over a particular period of time (usually 100 years), compared to carbon dioxide.

Function of reactor in inverter AC

Image
 There are two types of reactor. 1. AC Reactor -AC Reactor is basically an inductor used in series of AC supply. -Transients and harmonics are generated from inverter due to high current switching in Inverter Circuit. Also Inverter Drive circuit is sensitive to external surges and spikes Function of ac reactor 1 Reduce Harmonics 2 Restrict Transients 3 Suppress external surges 4 Improve input Power factor -AC Reactors are generally required where very high VA Inverter drive is used. -Also if our Drive circuit needs to comply to some Statuatory standards then AC reactors helps in achieving required specifications DC reactor -DC Reactor is also basically an inductor connected in the DC bus between the Rectifier bridge and the capacitor bank. Function of DC REACTOR 1. Reduce Harmonics 2. Restrict Transients 3. Improve Input Powerfactor -DC reactors donot protect Rectifiers from possible voltage transients in mains Advantage of DC Reactor. -Less expensive compared to AC reactor -Less l...

What is inverter AC ?

 Inverter air conditioner. Inverter air conditioner is an intelligence system which can modulates (varying)  it's cooling capacity according to indoor heat load requirements. Many people think that inverter AC works on inverter But it's not true. Inverter ac consume less power than non inverter AC. Now we will know about inverter circuit. Inverter basics.  Inverter is an device which converts direct current (DC) in to AC. We know that we use rectifiers to convert AC in DC . Inverter system circuit. There are two circuit in inverter AC. 1. Converter circuit. 2. Inverter circuit 1. Converter.   AC- DC In this circuit there is a diode bridge which converts AC to DC. After than there is a resistance and capacitor,which creates smooth voltage. 2. Inverter circuit. DC - AC In this circuit there are four switches 1, 2,3 and 4. There are two circuit when switch 1&4 on and when switch 2 and 3 on.
