• After being off, when the compressor motor turns on, the
compressor output builds up slowly (due to refrigerant migration
during the off period) while the motor immediately begins to draw
full power.
• This cyclic loss (every time the motor turns on) between the ideal
and the actual values of the compressor output, as shown in Fig. 1-
6, can be eliminated by running the compressor continuously at a
speed at which its output matches the thermal load of the
building.
• However, electric vehicles must wait for suitable batteries, fuel cells, or
flywheels to be developed before the average motorist accepts them.
