20、rpose of this addendum is to add a new set of cases, as new Section 5.5 of Standard 140, for testing the ability of whole-building energy simulation programs to model the air distribution side of typical heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) equipment. These cases test fundamental air-si

21、de system mass flow and heat balance modeling and are complementary to the current HVAC BESTEST and Furnace BESTEST cases of Sections 5.3 and 5.4, respectively, which test the ability to apply performance maps for modeling the working heat-transfer fluid side and combustion side of HVAC equipment. T

22、he new test cases are from Airside HVAC BESTEST: Adaptation of ASHRAE RP-865 Airside HVAC Equipment Modeling Test Cases for ASHRAE Standard 140, Volume 1: Cases AE101AE445A-5,by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in collaboration with the ASHRAE Standing Standard Project Committee 140 (

23、SSPC 140) and other international software developers and simulation-trial participants. NRELs adaptation work builds off of ASHRAE Research Project 865 (RP-865)A-7, conducted at University of Nebraska Omaha, The Pennsylvania State University, and Texas A the CV system further applies multiple (two)

24、 zones, system supply air temperature control, and terminal reheat coils; and the VAV system further applies a variable airflow supply fan and terminal zone supply air dampers. The test cases are conducted at five different sets of steady-state outdoor and zone conditions in heating, dry-coil coolin

25、g, and wet-coil cooling modes, and with temperature and enthalpy economizer outdoor air control strategies applied to selected conditions. Primary compared output for these test cases includes coil sensible, latent, and total loads; zone sensible and latent loads; and cooling-coil leaving-air relati

26、ve humidity. Additional diagnostic outputs at various points in the systems include dry-bulb temperature (and the ability to isolate fan heat effects), humidity ratio, specific volume, enthalpy, and mass flow rate. For these in-depth cases, plant energy use related to coil loads and fan electricity

27、consumption is not considered. Adaptation of ASHRAE RP-865 as a Standard Method of Test The air-side HVAC equipment model test cases are an excellent example of ASHRAE research providing the kernel, in this instance RP-865A-7, for an industry-standard method of test. RP-865 developed a test specific

28、ation, and two independently developed spreadsheet solutions, intended as quasi-analytical solutions for a number of typical air-side HVAC system configurations, such as constant-volume and variable-air-volume reheat systems. At the time RP-865 was developed, the scope for input descriptions in its

29、test specification was limited to two prominent whole-building energy simulation programs. NREL led the collaborative effort by SSPC 140 and other international software developers and participants to (a) reconcile differences in the two analytical solutions to produce a single, final quasi-analytic

30、al solution, (b) rework the test specifications to be unambiguous for the input structures of most whole-building energy simulation programs with time steps of one hour or less, and (c) field test the specifications with a variety of different simulation programs and associated international softwar

31、e development groups to ensure their suitability as a standard method of test that can be integrated into ASHRAE Standard 140. Further discussion of the ASHRAE (www.ashrae.org).

On the psychrometric chart, this is the intersection of the condition line and the saturation curve, where the condition line is the line going through entering air conditions with slo

For the test cases of Section 5.3, SHR is calculated as SHR = (gross sensible capacity)/(gross total capacity). (Also sSee sensible heat ratio, gross sensible capacit
