To calculate the electricity consumption of an inverter AC, you need to consider several factors, including the energy efficiency ratio (EER) of the AC unit, the cooling capacity, and the duration of usage.
However, in your question, you haven't provided the specific EER or the cooling capacity of the AC unit. The EER is a measure of how efficiently the AC unit converts electrical energy into cooling. Without this information, it is not possible to provide an accurate calculation.
Nevertheless, I can provide you with a rough estimate based on typical assumptions. The average EER for an inverter AC is around 3.5. The cooling capacity of a 1.5-ton AC is approximately 18,000 BTU/hr.
Assuming an EER of 3.5 and using the following formula:
Electricity consumption (in kWh) = (Cooling capacity in BTU/hr) / (EER × 3.412) × Duration of usage (in hours)
Let's calculate the approximate electricity consumption for 8 hours of usage at 26 degrees Celsius:
Electricity consumption = (18,000 BTU/hr) / (3.5 × 3.412) × 8 hours Electricity consumption = 4365.28 BTU / (3.5 × 3.412) × 8 hours Electricity consumption ≈ 381.87 kWh
Please note that this is an estimated value, and the actual electricity consumption may vary based on the specific EER and cooling capacity of your inverter AC unit. It is always recommended to refer to the manufacturer's specifications or consult an energy professional for a more accurate calculation.
