14、 and Air Conditioning Industry Standards Committee, to meet the needs expressed by industry. Part2, dealing with acoustic testing and rating of induction units, will be published later. The Committee acknowledge their debt to the Heating and Ventilating Research Association for the Associations work
15、 in formulating the methods of testing which appear in this Part of the standard. This work was carried out under a Department of Trade and Industry contract. The test methods enable the thermal and aerodynamic performance of an induction unit to be evaluated at any water and air flow rate and tempe
16、rature within the range of the variables employed for the test. The aerodynamic test methods deal with four aspects of a units performance: 1) The pressure loss of the primary air supply. 2) The relationship between the primary air flow rate and the nozzle pressure. Since the inlet velocity profile
17、effects will be small, the data obtained in this test may be used by a site engineer to assist him in balancing an air distribution system. 3) The inlet plenum leakage flow rate. 4) The induction ratio. Two heat transfer test methods are given, one for operation over a limited range of temperatures
18、and the other for a wider range of temperatures. Examples of calculations from the test data are included. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British St
19、andard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi andii, pages1 to26, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorpora

It gives instructions for the calculation, i
21、nterpretation and interpolation of the test results for the thermal and aerodynamic rating of the units. NOTEThe titles of the British Standards referred to in this Part of this standard are shown on page 26. 2 Definitions For the purposes of this British Standard the following definitions apply: 2.
22、1 induction unit an assembly in which the treated primary air, received under pressure from a central plant, is discharged at high velocity through a series of nozzles fitted within the unit. This high velocity discharge causes an induction process, inside the unit, and thus an inflow of secondary a
23、ir from the treated space into the unit. Some or all of the induced secondary air entering the unit may pass through a heat exchanger. The induced secondary air then mixes with the primary air and is discharged into the treated space 2.2 primary air conditioned air fed to the nozzles in an induction
24、 unit 2.3 secondary air air from the space being conditioned which is induced into the unit by the action of the primary air ejected from the nozzles. The secondary air generally passes through a heat exchanger 2.4 nozzle a device so designed as to give low energy loss and thus produce a maximum thr
25、ow by minimum entrainment 2.5 unitary type induction unit this type of induction unit is a discrete device, but several may be grouped and linked together by their primary air supply ducting 2.6 modular (continuous) type induction unit this type of induction unit consists of a series of sections, mo
26、dular in length, so designed as to enable them to be connected together to form a single unit completely filling the wall space allocated 2.7 reference nozzle this is one of the primary air supply nozzles which is selected as a reference nozzle for the purpose of comparing primary air pressures at d

36、hing, (for water temperatures above90 C it is advantageous to use one of the methods described in BS1042). The water leaving the test rig shall be collected in vessels of known weight, and weighed on a weighing machine, having an accuracy of0.1% over the range of weights used in the test. The weight
37、 of each vessel used shall not exceed50% of the weight of its normal contents. Precautions shall be taken to minimize evaporation from the vessels awaiting weighing. The net weight of each charge shall be recorded by weighing the vessel both after emptying the previous charge and after filling. 4.2.
38、2 The above method is suitable for water exit temperatures up to about90 C using the arrangement of equipment shown inFigure 3. For higher water exit temperatures it may be necessary to cool the water leaving the unit before it is discharged into the measuring vessel. Care shall be taken to check an
39、y after-cooler for leaks. 4.2.3 An alternative to the method of direct weighing described in4.2.1 is shown inFigure 4, together with a suitable water supply system for water temperature above90 C. 4.3 Air flow measurement 4.3.1 Air flow measurement shall be in accordance with BS1042-1, or alternativ
40、ely a flowmeter may be calibrated in situ using the methods given in BS1042-2 1) . 4.3.2 Leakage flow rates may be measured by means of a calibrated variable area flowmeter or integrating air flowmeter. 4.4 Pressure measurement 4.4.1 Wall static pressures shall be measured with static taps conformin
41、g to the requirements specified in BS1042-2 1) . 4.4.2 Pressures shall be measured by means of an instrument with scale intervals no greater than2% of the indicated reading with the exception of pressures below50N/m 2 , in which case the maximum interval shall be to1N/m 2 . 4.4.3 Static pressures sh
42、all be measured with liquid-filled manometers. An inverted U-tube manometer, similar to that shown inFigure 5 shall be used for the measurement of hydraulic pressure drop. 4.4.4 The minimum differential pressures for flow measurement shall be25N/m 2for inclined U-tube and micro-manometers and500N/m
43、2for vertical U-tube manometers. 5 Test for total pressure loss of primary air supply 5.1 A test duct of cross-sectional dimensions equal to the nominal dimensions of the primary air inlet, and of minimum length six hydraulic diameters (H D ), shall be connected to the primary air inlet. NOTEIf the
44、inlet is not of circular or rectangular cross section a transition section of minimum length2H Dand of constant area may be connected between the primary air inlet and the test duct. 5.2 A flow straightener shall be located at the upstream termination of the test duct. A wire mesh screen (having a f
45、ree area from60% to70%) shall be located two test duct hydraulic diameters downstream of the flow straightener. A ring of four static pressure taps shall be fitted at a point two test duct hydraulic diameters from the downstream termination of the test duct. The test duct shall be connected to an ai
46、r supply system arranged similarly to the system shown inFigure 6. The supply air temperature is to be measured at the flowmeter and on the test duct centre-line one test duct hydraulic diameter upstream of the pressure taps. 5.3 The test shall be carried out and results analysed in the following wa
47、y: 1) Set the primary air flow damper (if fitted) fully open. 2) Start the air supply fan and set the air flow rate to the desired level. The results may be recorded when the supply air flow rate has not varied by more than2% over a period of five minutes and the air inlet temperature has not varied
48、 by more than2 C over a similar period. 1) In course of preparation.BS4954-1:1973 4 BSI 01-2000 3) The following data shall be recorded: 4) Calculate the inlet static pressure for the reference air density of1.2kg/m 3from the equation: where: 5) Calculate the air flow rate for the reference air dens
49、ity of1.2kg/m 3from the equation: where: 6) Calculate the total pressure loss from the equation: where: 6 Test for the relationship between primary air flow rate and nozzle pressure The balancing of an induction unit system is usually carried out by estimating the primary air flow rate from the total pressure measured at a reference nozzle. If this test is to be of value the reference nozzle must be clearly marked, and a total head tube of sufficient size connected to the reference nozzle. 6.1
