The percent difference between measured and simulated 24 h average particle concentrations was 11.7% for 0.3 pm to 0.5 p parti
13、cles, 12.6% for 0.5 p to 0.7 pm, -15.2% for 0.7 p to 1.0 p, and -27.2% for 1.0 p to 5.0 pm. The percent differences at any point in time ranged from -82% to 142% but fluctuated much more than for MAClb. This larger fluctuation was likely due to the smaller absolute particle concentrations in the bui
14、lding as a result of the highly effective air cleaner. EACl was also modeled for the same case using the total removal efficiencies determined by decay tests (values in Table 5) in combination with the system-off deposition rates (values in Table 2). The simulated indoor particle concentrations usin

The percent difference between measured and simulated 24 h average par- ticle concentrations was 16.0% for 0.3 pm to 0.5 pm particles, 16.8% for 0.5 p to 0.7 pm, -9.7% for 0.7 pm to 1.0 p, and -23.4% for 1.0 p to 5.0 pm. The percent differenc
16、es at any point in time ranged just as widely as the previous method from -87% to 153%. Similar to the MAC1b predictions, the CONTAM predictions with this method were somewhat closer to the measurements for the two larger size ranges but somewhat further from the measurements for the two smaller siz
17、e ranges. The statistical measures from ASTM D5 157 were calculated for the predicted particle con- centrations for the cases presented in Figures 12 to 15 above.

For example, the correlation coefficient for all cases was greater than 0.94 for all cases and was 0.98 to 0.99 for all cases except the two smallest size particles with th
21、e electronic air cleaner operating. Similarly, the NMSE was less than 0.2 for all cases and was less than 0.1 for many cases. The bias measures fared nearly as well with the model predictions meeting the criteria for all cases except for the predictions for the largest size particles which were slig
22、htly outside the adequate criteria for FB. DISCUSSION The primary objective of this effort was to evaluate the capability of the multizone IAQ model CONTAM to simulate the impact of particle air cleaners in a real building subject to real ambient conditions. As shown in Figures 12 through 15, it is
23、possible to adequately predict the air cleaner performance, at least for a single zone building without occupants present. Future work is underway to extend the project to include measurements and predictions of particle air cleaners in an occupied home. One important limitation of this study was th
24、at simulations and predictions were made for the HVAC system operating at steady-state condition. This was nec- essary as the current CONTAM model is not capable of modeling the cycling of the system to meet a thermal load. A thermal model is currently being added to the model. Although both the dec
25、ay and direct methods resulted in good predictive accuracy, the decay method was found to be somewhat more accurate than the direct method. This is because it yielded a filtration efficiency for the HVAC system and air cleaner as an installed unit. Thus, factors such as leakage around a poor fitting
26、 air cleaner and deposition in the ductwork is VOLUME 7, NUMBER 3, JULY 2001 243 accounted for in the measured efficiencies. However, for typical design applications, an “installed” efficiency would not be available and the manufacturer test data that might be similar to the direct method efficienci
27、es would need to be used. These efficiencies would then need to be combined with appropriate deposition factors to account for the total removal of particles. Additional study into the issue of particle removal throughout the HVAC system ductwork, and deposition dependence on ventilation flows, is n
28、eeded to enable such modeling. CONCLUSIONS The capability of the multi-zone IAQ model CONTAM to model the impact of particle clean- ers in an actual building was evaluated. The decay method was found to be more accurate than the direct method for modeling particle air cleaners. With the efficiency o
29、btained in this manner, the air cleaner performance in an unoccupied house was adequately predicted.

EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE A typical orifice tube used in air conditioning systems for mobile units is schematically shown in Figure 2. Several such orific
40、e tubes in five nominal diameters were tested in different configurations. All the orifice tubes had the identical housing, the same length, but a different inner diameter. The color of the housing indicates the nominal diameter of the tube. The major elements of the orifice tubes tested are given i

As a first step 100 tubes were tested (in sets of 20 according to diameter) by a flow procedure using nitrogen in order to identify a representative unit in each group for testing with refrigerant. The nitrogen test procedure and results are discussed in Singh and Hmjak (2000). In summary

At least one tube from each sample was tested with refrigerant. After the orifice tube was tested wit
47、h refrigerant, with both inlet and exit screens, both screens were removed and the tests were repeated to quantify the effect of the screens. The purpose of the inlet screen is to serve as a strainer while the exit screen substantially reduces noise generated by the expansion. Subsequently the orifi
48、ce tubes were carefully shortened in steps and tested again. Special care was given in shortening to avoid any change in diameter, shape or geometry of exit plane. The flow rates were measured after each step to verify the effect of length. The test matrix is summarized in Table 2. Values in the cel

SL indicates sub- cooled liquid inlet conditions while TP indicates two-phase inlet conditions. The aim of the test matrix was to cover a wide range of operating parameters to provide the experimental basis for a model that could be used to predict steady and transient flow at normal operating conditions. Tests were conducted in the range of 10 to 33 bar for the upstream pressure, 3.5 to 4.5 bar for the downstream pre
