Abstract

The efficiency of the Air Conditioning (AC) system in a car depends on the process of compression, condensation, and evaporation. The new thought that arises is what if the diameter of the condenser fan blade is varied? The objectives of this study are: (1) to test the effect of the diameter of the condenser fan blade on AC temperature, and (2) to test the effect of condenser fan rotation speed on AC temperature. This research is using an experimental method. The results showed: 1) there was an effect of the diameter of the condenser fan on AC temperature, which was 16.7%; and 2) there is an influence of condenser fan rotation speed on AC temperature that is equal to 20.5%. These findings become a reference that to improve the performance of the AC, it can be done by increasing the heat transfer process in the condenser.
