Hi all,
New in this line and very noob on air-conditioning.. Would anyone out there have any standard formula to calculate power consumption (kw) vs temp.
ie. how much can we save if reduce room temp from 23 degC to 25 degC..
Thanks in advance..

If you check your power input on the compressor operating at the 23C operating condition and then compare that to the 25C operating condition you can get the power difference.

Use the compressor manufacturers compressor data for this. You also have to assume the condensing temperature is the same.

This should provide a quick idea of what you can expect.
