2、14.13Other Sources of Climatic Information 14.15HIS chapter and the data on the accompanying CD-ROM pro-Tvide the climatic design information for 6443 locations in theUnited States, Canada, and around the world. This is an increase of879 stations from the 2009 ASHRAE HandbookFundamentals. Asin the p

3、revious edition, the large number of stations made printingthe whole tables impractical. Consequently, the complete table ofdesign conditions for only Atlanta, GA, appears in this printed chap-ter to illustrate the table format. However, a subset of the table ele-ments most often used is presented i

4、n the Appendix at the end of thischapter for selected stations representing major urban centers in theUnited States, Canada, and around the world. The complete datatables for all 6443 stations are contained on the CD-ROM thataccompanies this book.This climatic design information is commonly used for

5、 design,sizing, distribution, installation, and marketing of heating, ventilat-ing, air-conditioning, and dehumidification equipment, as well as forother energy-related processes in residential, agricultural, commer-cial, and industrial applications. These summaries include values ofdry-bulb, wet-bu

6、lb, and dew-point temperature, and wind speed withdirection at various frequencies of occurrence. Also included in thisedition are monthly degree-days to various bases, and parameters tocalculate clear-sky irradiance. Sources of other climate informationof potential interest to ASHRAE members are de

7、scribed later in thischapter.Design information in this chapter was developed largely throughresearch project RP-1613 (Thevenard and Gueymard 2013). Theinformation includes design values of dry-bulb with mean coinci-dent wet-bulb temperature, design wet-bulb with mean coincidentdry-bulb temperature,

8、 and design dew-point with mean coincidentdry-bulb temperature and corresponding humidity ratio. These dataallow the designer to consider various operational peak conditions.Design values of wind speed facilitate the design of smoke manage-ment systems in buildings (Lamming and Salmon 1996, 1998).Wa

9、rm-season temperature and humidity conditions are based onannual percentiles of 0.4, 1.0, and 2.0. Cold-season conditions arebased on annual percentiles of 99.6 and 99.0. The use of annual per-centiles to define design conditions ensures that they represent thesame probability of occurrence in any c

10、limate, regardless of the sea-sonal distribution of extreme temperature and humidity.Monthly information including percentiles is compiled in addi-tion to annual percentiles, to provide seasonally representative com-binations of temperature, humidity, and solar conditions.Precipitation data have bee

11、n introduced in this edition. They areused mostly to determine climate zones for ASHRAE Standard 169,but may also be helpful in developing green technologies such asvegetative roofs.Finally, the clear-sky solar radiation model introduced in the2009 edition has been slightly modified, with new coeffi

12、cients usedin expressions for calculation of air mass exponents ab and ad.Design conditions are provided for locations for which long-termhourly observations were available (1986-2010 for most stations inthe United States and Canada). Compared to the 2009 chapter, thenumber of U.S. stations increase

13、d from 1085 to 1406 (29%increase); Canadian stations increased from 480 to 562 (16%increase); and stations in the rest of the world increased from 3999to 4475 (12% increase; see Figure 1 for map).CLIMATIC DESIGN CONDITIONSTable 1 shows climatic design conditions for Atlanta, GA, toillustrate the for

31、s. The monthly summaries are usefulwhen seasonal variations in solar geometry and intensity, buildingor facility occupancy, or building use patterns require consideration.In particular, these values can be used when determining air-condi-tioning loads during periods of maximum solar radiation. The v

Monthly percentile values of dr

For example, the 5% design wet-bulb temperature for July can be found in row (29), column (k).14.4 2013 ASHRAE HandbookFundamentals (SI)corresponding to the same nominal percentile. For example, Table 1shows that the annual 0.4% design dry-bulb temperature at Atlanta,GA,

40、is 34.4C; the 0.4% monthly dry-bulb temperature exceeds34.4C for June, July, and August, with values of 34.7, 36.6, and36.3C, respectively. Fifth and tenth percentiles are also provided togive a greater range in the frequency of occurrence, in particularproviding less extreme options to select for d

41、esign calculations.A general, very approximate rule of thumb is that the n% annualcooling design condition is roughly equivalent to the 5n% monthlycooling condition for the hottest month; that is, the 0.4% annualdesign dry-bulb temperature is roughly equivalent to the 2%monthly design dry-bulb tempe

42、rature for the hottest month; the 1%annual value is roughly equivalent to the 5% monthly value for thehottest month, and the 2% annual value is roughly equivalent to the10% monthly value for the hottest month.Mean Daily Temperature Range. These values are useful incalculating daily dry- and wet-bulb

43、 temperature profiles, as ex-plained in the section on Generating Design-Day Data. Three kindsof profile are defined: Mean daily temperature range for month indicated, C (defined asmean of difference between daily maximum and minimum dry-bulb temperatures).

Parameters are provided for the 21st dayof each month. The 21st of the month is usually a convenient day forsolar calculations

47、because June 21 and December 21 represent thesolstices (longest and shortest days) and March 21 and September21 are close to the equinox (days and nights have the same length).Parameters listed in the tables are Clear-sky optical depths for beam and diffuse irradiances, whichare used to calculate be

These two values can be calculated from the clear-sky opti-cal depths but are listed here for convenience.Data SourcesThe following tw

49、o primary sources of observational data setswere used in calculating design values: Integrated Surface Dataset (ISD) data for stations from around theworld provided by NCDC for the period 1986 to 2010 (Lott et al.2001; NCDC 2003). Hourly weather records for the period 1986 to 2010 for 559 Cana-dian locations from Environment Canada (2013).In most cases, the period of record used in the calculationsspanned 25 years. This choice of period is a compromise betweentrying to derive design conditions from t
