Abstract
► The residential demand of AC in the Region of Madrid is studied including the effect of family seasonal holidays. ► A simulation of the air-cooled mechanical compression cycle was performed and several results were obtained such as a seasonal COP of 2.4. ► Some air-cooled AC apparatus marketed were studied and a “Commercial COP” was obtained. ► Electricity consumption and equivalent CO2 emissions were also assessed and the seasonal COP was compared with commercial COP. ► Finally, influence of residential AC on electricity consumption of the whole region is analyzed, including also consumption peaks.
