For the purpose of developing optimized control algorithm for room air-conditioners to ensure their energy efficiency, it is necessary to develop a method to estimate the energy consumption of air conditioners during a short time interval, such as one minute, to match the control interval, which is one minute in common. This paper proposes a method to estimate the energy consumption of air conditioners using the short time interval room air temperature simulation. The estimated energy consumptions are compared with measured values. The comparison shows that the estimation results are accurate enough to for evaluate the energy performance of a room air-conditioner's control algorithm.
