I. Three basic problems

The air-conditioning :
- Cooling machines is made in the package in the factory.
-The design is select suitable equipment for the building.
3 basic problems:
1.The equipment must fulfill the requirements of the building.
2.Real cold productivity of air-conditioning system must to
good cool for the building.
3.The air-conditioning systems must high in saving of energy.

II. Define the types of Q0 (cold productivity)
1) Factors affecting cold productivity Q0
-Coefficient α1: Change temperature of refrigeration in condenser tk
(Change temperature of Water or air is into cooling condenser).
-Coefficient α2: Change temperature of refrigeration in evaporator t0
(Change temperature of Water or air get out the evaporator).
- Coefficient α3: Change the length of refrigeration pipelines and the
height of difference the hot unit and cold unit.
- Change the air or water velocity flow through evaporator.
