4、SHRAE ISSN 1041-2336SPECIAL NOTEThis American National Standard (ANS) is a national voluntary consensus standard developed under the auspices of ASHRAE.Consensus is defined by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), of which ASHRAE is a member and which has approved thisstandard as an ANS,
5、 as “substantial agreement reached by directly and materially affected interest categories. This signifies the concurrenceof more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that aneffort be made toward their resolution.”
6、 Compliance with this standard is voluntary until and unless a legal jurisdiction makes compliancemandatory through legislation.ASHRAE obtains consensus through participation of its national and international members, associated societies, and public review.ASHRAE Standards are prepared by a Project
7、 Committee appointed specifically for the purpose of writing the Standard. The ProjectCommittee Chair and Vice-Chair must be members of ASHRAE; while other committee members may or may not be ASHRAE members, allmust be technically qualified in the subject area of the Standard. Every effort is made t
8、o balance the concerned interests on all ProjectCommittees.The Manager of Standards of ASHRAE should be contacted for:a. interpretation of the contents of this Standard,b. participation in the next review of the Standard,c. offering constructive criticism for improving the Standard, ord. permission

It is merelyinformative and does not contain requirements necessaryfor conformance to the standard. It has not been pro-cessed
21、according to the ANSI requirements for a standardand may contain material that has not been subject topublic review or a consensus process. Unresolved objec-tors on informative material are not offered the right toappeal at ASHRAE or ANSI.)FOREWORDThe objective of this method of test is to provide e
22、stimatesof the efficiency of thermal distribution systems. This effi-ciency may be used in energy consumption or system capacityestimates. This method of test provides thermal distributionsystem efficiencies for both heating and cooling systems.Thermal distribution system efficiency is calculated fo
23、r sea-sonal conditions (for energy consumption) or design condi-tions (for system sizing). This results in a total of four outputsfrom the method of test. This standard does not address theeffectiveness of the tested system to provide comfort in theconditioned space or to deliver the designed or req
24、uired air-flow to individual rooms within the conditioned space.1. PURPOSEThis standard prescribes a method of test to determinethe efficiency of space heating and/or cooling thermal distri-bution systems under seasonal and design conditions. Theobjective is to facilitate annual energy calculations
25、and heat-ing and cooling equipment capacity calculations.2. SCOPE2.1 This standard applies to single-family detached andattached residences with independent thermal systems.2.2 This standard applies to air, hydronic, and electric distri-bution systems.3.

32、al unit that primarilyconsists of one or more finned tubes and a casing cabinet.floor area: the conditioned floor area of the building.forced-air distribution system: forced-air systems are heatingand/or cooling systems that use motor-driven blowers to dis-tribute heated, cooled, and otherwise treat

34、n effects to the load, includingdistribution system effects.radiant barrier: a surface of low emissivity (less than 0.1)placed inside an attic or roof space above (but not touching)the distribution system to reduce radiant heat transfer.radiant panel: a heating or cooling surface that delivers 50%or
35、 more of its heat transfer by radiation that may be either anintegral part of the building (e.g., floor or ceiling heating) ordetached from the building elements (e.g., suspended ceilingpanel).reduced-absorptivity exterior coating: an exterior finishapplied to roof systems in order to reduce the abs

The solar absorptivity must be 0.4 or less.thermal regain: the fraction of distribution system losses(gains for cooling) that are returned to the conditioned space.tile roof: a ventilated barrel tile roofing system.variable-capacity equipment: some heating and coolingequip
37、ment operates in stages of different capacity that dependon building load, e.g., electric furnaces with several separateheater elements.vented crawlspace: a crawlspace with an open vent area1/150th of its floor area, with vents distributed over allexterior surfaces.well-vented attic: an attic with a
38、n open vent area 1/300th ofits floor area distributed high and low over attic surfaces. ASHRAE (www.ashrae.org). For personal use only.
