21、 The first ASHRAE web page resided on a Galacticom Bulletin Board with a www interface that was relatively lim- W;ll;am R. Coker ited in service. Six months later ASHRAE moved thehome Journal Editor page to a BSD-Unix server which allowed for automatic mailing and provided a link for the Home Page t
22、o FTP site. The File Transfer Protocol (FP) site enables members to move complete computer files of documents from the ASHRAE server to their own computers - quickly and easily. One of the first applications used by ASHRAE for this technology was to make available at no cost to the user the first pu
23、blic review draft of Standard 62- 1989R “Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality.” More than 4,204 copies were downloaded in four months, allowing members and other concerned interests within the industry to participate in the development of this standard. ASHRAEs Home Page, actually a complet
24、e on-line service called ASHRAE OnLine, averaged 2,000 hits or file transfers a day during its first year. By October of 1996, it had grown to 4,500 “hits” a day. Today it is averaging 5,700 “hits” a day and still climbing. Visitors can search ASHRAE work statements to bid on research projects, find
25、 the scopes and purposes of all ASHRAE standards, download drafts of any ASHRAE standard out or public review, find the latest industry news, review meeting programs, and change their ASHRAE membership address. From the ASHRAE site, there are links to ASHRAE chapters with home pages, other industry
26、sites, and to the home pages of industry suppliers. The next step is to switch to an NT Secure Server that will handle credit card encryption. That will enable ASHRAE members and others to securely use credit cards, to order and pay for publications or register for meetings. Along with ASHRAE OnLine
27、, the Society has also moved steadily forward offering a full range of computer-based products. ASHRAE now offers all of the papers presented at ASHRAE meetings on text- searchable CDs. Last year, the first of the ASHRAE Handbook CDs was issued. This first effort included the 1995 HVAC Applications
28、Handbook and 1996 HVAC Systems and Equipment (in inch-pound units only). The next HandbookCD will include these two volumes plus the 1997 Fundamentals. Other ASHRAE CD prod- ucts include a disc that provides full text of all articles published by ASHRAE in its research journal and the BACnetCD, an e
29、lectronic version of ASI-IRAES Standard 135-1995 “BACnetTM - A Data Communication Protocol for Building Automation and Control Networks.” It is evident that ASHRAE is rapidly moving towards meeting the evolving information needs of its membership through electronic means. In the future, ASHRAE OnLin
30、e may be the Societys primary communication vehicle - to some members it is already - and the growing delivery of information in computer read- able form on CDs and floppies has changed the very idea of what a “publication.” Beginning July 1, I will shift gears to guide the further development of AS
31、HRAE OnLine as its editor. I will keep one foot on the printed page by remaining as senior editor of ASHRAE Journal and editor of ASHRAE Insights. But the home page will be the major focus of my efforts, and I look forward to being part of this com- munication revolution as ASHRAE reinvents how its
32、communicates with its mem- bers and perhaps most importantly, ASHRAE members reinvent how they communicate with each through ASHRAE. An exciting future is in store for us. Fred Turner takes over as editor and will write the column for this space in the August issue. Fred has been the Journals managi
33、ng editor, and I leave it in good hands. He has done an outstanding job reporting on news in our industry and in our Society, and we will continue to work together as we move much of the Journals printed content online.

Jan beider, Member A
45、SHRAE, subcom- mittee chairman for TC 4.7, said the chapter now has state-of-the-art algo- rithms for building energy calculations for the first time in one place. The revised chapter is an outgrowth of two main research projects: Prepara- tion of a Tool Kit for Primary HVAC Energy Calculations (W-6
46、65), and Preparation of a Tool Kit for Secondary HVAC Energy Calculations (RP-629). Also used were other ASHRAE research projects, such as RP666 on thermal ground coupling. A third research project (RP-907) should be completed in December, 1999 and cover building load calculations. The chapter is or
47、ganized into three main sections: Component Models, Sys- tem Models, and Applications the system section covers assembled systems; and inverse models covers pre- dictions of energy use in the future, or energy use after energy-conservation measures are installed. Although most calculation methods re
48、quire computers to calculate annual energy consumption, the TC has re- tained classical methods, such as the variable base degree method, because of their broad use in the HVAC design community. Moisture Migration Also changed are the chapters on thermal and moisture control. Anton TenWolde, Member
49、ASHRAE, sub- committee chairman for TC 4.4, Ther- mal Insulation and Moisture Retarders, said the moisture control section has been rewritten and the title has been changed. TenWolde said previous section was AIR CURTAINS HELP TO MAINTAIN A MORE STABLE BUILDING ENVIRONMENT. HERES HOW. Reduces building heating and cooling costs. Increases employee comfort levels.
