  • Patent number: 7370485
    Abstract: A performance testing apparatus includes a refrigerant pipe provided with open ends, and installed such that a condenser, an expansion device and an evaporator are sequentially aligned from one end thereof to the other end thereof. A refrigerant heating unit is installed at one end of the refrigerant pipe for heating a refrigerant by a double boiler method and transmitting the heated refrigerant to the other end of the refrigerant pipe. Cooling fluids are respectively provided outside of the condenser and the evaporator for exchanging heat with the refrigerants in the condenser and the evaporator. A flow rate measurement unit is used for measuring the flow rate of the refrigerant flowing within the refrigerant pipe. A temperature and pressure measurement unit measure variations in temperature and pressure of the refrigerant passing through the condenser, the expansion device and the evaporator.
