How Does The DEEP Coil Work 

Heat transfer, among other factors, is also a function of real time contact between two heat exchanging media.  Longer the contact, larger will be the heat transfer.  Current-design copper tube-aluminum fin coils are generally “slab shape.”  These coils use short (or tight) tube spacing, high fin density and short rows.  The current high efficiency designs use just a single row.  This minimizes the actual real-time contact between the air and the fins to a minute fraction of a second.  Whereas, the same coil, in DEEP coil configuration, uses higher tube rows and a unique circuitry.  The higher tube rows make the coil deeper, hence the name DEEP coil.  It also provides long air path, allowing much higher dwell time.  Dwell time is the real time for which the air remains within the coil, allowing contact with heat exchanging media.   The net result is a reinvention of the coil to a new high performance and energy-efficiency level. 

This is a very viable, readily implementable and high-impact solution to the energy-efficiency in the HVAC/R field.  Though it looks simple and obvious in retrospect, this is truly an "outside the box" approach and solution to the problem.  There is no need to cling on to conventional thin coil.............something obsolete, on its way out!

Independent Laboratory Tests –

DEEP Coil has evolved over several years and after going through exhaustive testing on successive prototype samples.  These tests have revealed an undisputable performance pattern.  Many empirical comparison tests have been conducted between true DEEP coil sample and equivalent thin coil sample.  These tests were conducted at independent Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) Intertek Testing Laboratories in Cortland, NY.

According to this pattern, the DEEP coil provides at least 20% fan power saving for the same amount of heat transfer over the equivalent current-design thin coil and 10% compressor/pump power reduction.  See basic DEEP coil design-related formulae.

DEEP Coil Application 

Basically, DEEP coil is a better alternative to any fin-tube coil:  a fin-tube coil used in refrigeration application as in indoor evaporator or outdoor condenser coil, or fin-tube coil used to cool down hot fluids in industrial/process heat application like dry-coolers.

Conversion of slab coil to DEEP coil - The immediate and most appropriate application at this time is to replace any slab type condenser coil with equivalent DEEP coil.  Under such an upgrade, minimal changes to the product design are needed.  And, concurrent with the change in the coil, the fan motor power can be dropped by 20% to retain same end-product performance. 

Or, alternately, the same fan motor can be retained, which will provide higher cfm due to lesser air resistance.  The higher cfm will result in perhaps 5% to 7% increase in the heat transfer from the coil and would proportionately provided higher SEER rating.

This conversion will keep the same tube circuitry.  Accordingly, the fluid or refrigerant type, it is believed, would not matter.  The fluid resistance will remain the same after conversion to DEEP coil.  This application would require minimal engineering change.

Conversion of U shaped condenser coil to DEEP coil – The U shaped condenser coils are often single row and high fin density (18-24 fpi).  This coil can be converted to DEEP coil with a face area in the range of 1/6^th of the original.  In addition to energy savings, this can also provide a net reduction in the footprint. 

Comparison to Other Energy-Related HVAC/R Innovations –

DEEP Coil technology is one of those rare opportunities where it provides substantial cost savings to the OEM, and, concurrently proportionate savings to the consumer.  For example, the micro-channel heat exchangers claim to provide energy savings to the consumer, they also increase the OEM cost, putting the payback period several years down after commissioning of the equipment.  Or, consider the scroll compressor.  It only provides about 15% improvement in the compressor power consumption, but cost more, making the payback period longer.  Unlike, the DEEP coil, the scroll and the micro-channels, do not provide fan power savings.  For this reason alone the DEEP coil technology stands out in the list of recent HVAC/R innovations.

Coil Selection Software

A rudimentary coil selection software has been prepared based on the formulae developed to this date.  It is currently being tested and refined.  Please check back.

OEM Cost Savings

The DEEP coil allows the design engineer to reduce the compressor h.p., outdoor fan h.p. and indoor fan h.p. while retaining the same performance.  In the optimum stage, whereas if a 1 h.p. compressor was needed, the DEEP coil allows it to be downsized to 1/2 h.p.  Along with the reduction in h.p., ancillary components/materials like motor protection, motor contactors, mounting hardware also can be reduced and/or eliminated.  Same goes with fan motor and blower motor.  This results in a smaller and lighter overall machine/appliance.  All these steps reduce the product cost.

Current Status

"If this is so good, why is this not in the market?"  is the frequent question.  And the answer is lack of capital.  The technology has been proven several times in different ways including direct comparison, empirical, independent laboratory tests.  Little infusion of capital will quickly take the DEEP coil to the production stage.  it will then keep evolving for many years, providing pleasant surprises along the way, like it has in the past.  Current industry, whether a small entity or a large multinational corporation, for whatever reason, thinks they know everything or only they should know it all!  OH well.............!
