Portable Air Conditioner


Hi guys this is a portable air conditioner unit, this unit has several  advantages it portable which means that it can move form room to room in your houses and it  operating voltage are  24 volts DC it come in two sizes form 9000 Btu to 12000 Btu however this unit is more expensive that the others unit in this blog with less physical componets.





Say goodbye to high electricity bills

Hi guys i am  conducting research into the concept of solar air conditioning system for this blog, i will examining the price of a conventional system and also the benefit of a solar air conditioning the image below shows a house which has a solar air conditioning system.

  1. Save 50% to 100% of electricity bills for life 
  2. It protects the environment 
  3. It utilize a renewable energy source (sun)
  4. In times of a nature disasters it can provide standby power 
  5. It can store potential power for weeks via batteries.

 Hi guys  today i will show you how to size  the battery for your photovoltaic system. This aspect is one of  the most important part of the solar system design. the link will demonstrate how to obtain the load capacity of the home also the second image to the right is an example for the blog the link will explain the necessary information  requires  https://youtu.be/iGTTUzN5Jjs .





                                                                                                                                                         

Sizing the major components in a photovoltaics system

Hi Guys  the components below shows the  images of a charge  controller and a invert-er the functions of those device   differ from each other.  while one device regulate the unstable voltage coming from the solar panels the other convert DC to AC.They are consider the heart of a solar system  here is a link that explain the various type of controllers  https://youtu.be/KPZhtGLfGn4 and this link explain the different types of invert-er  https://youtu.be/75NMRgom-6w use in a solar system. my next post would be the sizing the battery bank for the solar system also

The image below shows a schematic diagram of rooftop  PV system  and the sequence  and place of the components. The solar panels are located at the top of the roof its usually place like this in the Caribbean.This is to ensure that the panels are not tempered   with,  when installed  the panel array it is usually place north to south on the roof to capture the sun rotation.

The charge controller regulates the DC voltage from the solar panels and then send a changing voltage to the batteries, the batteries store the electrical voltage and the inverter convert dc voltage to alternating current which can be utilizes in the household. 



Hi guys this a topical single line drawing of a solar system configuration the images below show the installation of a solar panels at  a job in eastern side of the island Trinidad and Tobago. This  link which show how to install solar panels and the various connection  that can be use to ensure that the right choose of  connections are use. 







Free energy for life

The cost of fossil fuel in the Caribbean is steady rising and power outage are becoming   more frequent than ever before security has become...
