18、rocess heating system is defi ned as a group (or a set or combina-tion) of heating equipment used for heating materials used in production of goods in an industrial plant. Assessments involve collecting and analyzing information on system design, operation, energy use, and performance data and ident
19、ifying energy effi ciency improvement opportunities to optimize system energy use or performance. An assess-ment may also include additional information, such as recommendations for improving resource utilization, reducing per unit production cost, reducing lifecycle costs, and improving environment
20、al performance related to the assessed system(s). This Standard provides a common defi nition for what constitutes an assessment for both users and providers of assessment services. The objective is to provide clarity for those types of services that have been variously described as energy assessmen
21、ts, energy audits, energy surveys, and energy studies. In all cases, systems (energy-using logical groups of industrial equipment organized to perform a specifi c function) are analyzed through various techniques, such as measurement and analysis, resulting in the identifi cation, documentation, and
22、 prioritization of energy perfor-mance improvement opportunities. This Standard sets the requirements for conducting and reporting the results of an assessment that considers the en-tire system, from energy inputs to the work performed as the result of these inputs. An assessment meeting this Stan-d
23、ard need not address each individual system component or subsystem within an industrial facility with equal weight; however, it shall be suffi ciently comprehensive to identify the major energy effi ciency opportunities for improving the overall energy performance of the facility. This Standard is d
24、esigned to be applied primarily at industrial facilities, but many of the concepts can be used in other facilities, such as those in the institutional and commercial sectors.The Standard is part of a portfolio of documents and other efforts designed to assist in improving the effi ciency of industri
25、al facilities. Initially, four assessment standards are being developed for compressed air, process heating, pumping, and steam systems. Other related existing and planned efforts to improve the effi ciency of industrial facili-ties include(a) ASME guidance documents for the assessment standards, wh
26、ich provide technical background and applica-tion details to support understanding of the assessment standards. These guidance documents provide rationale for the technical requirements of the assessment standards and give technical guidance, application notes, alternate ap-proaches, tips, technique
27、s, and rules-of-thumb.(b) A certifi cation program for each ASME assessment standard that recognizes certifi ed practitioners as individu-als who have demonstrated, via a professional qualifying exam, that they have the necessary knowledge and skills to properly apply the assessment standard.(c) An
28、energy management standard, “A Management System for Energy, ANSI/MSE 2000:2008,” which is a stan-dardized approach to managing energy supply, demand, reliability, purchase, storage, use, and disposal and is used to control and reduce an organizations energy costs and energy-related environmental im
29、pact. NOTE: This ANSI standard will eventually be superseded by ISO 50001, now under development.(d) An ANSI-accredited measurement and verifi cation protocol that includes methodologies for verifying the results of energy effi ciency projects.(e) A program, Superior Energy Performance, that will of
30、fer ANSI-accredited certifi cation for energy effi ciency through application of ANSI/MSE 2000:2008 and documentation of a specifi ed improvement in energy performance using the ANSI measurement and verifi cation protocol.The complementary documents described above, when used together, will assist o

38、SME Standards are developed and maintained with the intent to represent the consensus of concerned interests. As such, users of this Standard may interact with the Committee by requesting interpretations, proposing revisions, and attending Committee meetings. Correspondence should be addressed to:Se
39、cretary, EA CommitteeThe American Society of Mechanical EngineersThree Park AvenueNew York, NY 10016-5990http:/go.asme.org/InquiryProposing Revisions. Revisions are made periodically to the Standard to incorporate changes that appear necessary or desirable, as demonstrated by the experience gained f
40、rom the application of the Standard. Approved revisions will be published periodically.The Committee welcomes proposals for revisions to this Standard. Such proposals should be as specifi c as possible, citing the paragraph number(s), the proposed wording, and a detailed description of the reasons f
41、or the proposal, including any pertinent documentation.Proposing a Case. Cases may be issued for the purpose of providing alternative rules when justifi ed, to permit early implementation of an approved revision when the need is urgent, or to provide rules not covered by existing provi-sions. Cases
42、are effective immediately upon ASME approval and shall be posted on the ASME Committee Web page.Requests for Cases shall provide a Statement of Need and Background Information. The request should identify the Standard, the paragraph, fi gure or table number(s), and be written as a Question and Reply
43、 in the same format as existing Cases. Requests for Cases should also indicate the applicable edition(s) of the Standard to which the proposed Case applies.Interpretations. Upon request, the EA Committee will render an interpretation of any requirement of the Standard. Interpretations can only be re
44、ndered in response to a written request sent to the Secretary of the EA Committee.The request for interpretation should be clear and unambiguous. It is further recommended that the inquirer submit his request in the following format:Subject: Cite the applicable paragraph number(s) and a concise desc
45、riptionEdition: Cite the applicable edition of the Standard for which the interpretation is being requested.Question: Phrase the question as a request for an interpretation of a specifi c requirement suitable for general understanding and use, not as a request for an approval of a proprietary design
46、 or situation. The in-quirer may also include any plans or drawings that are necessary to explain the question; however, they should not contain proprietary names or information.Requests that are not in this format will be rewritten in this format by the Committee prior to being answered, which may
47、inadvertently change the intent of the original request.ASME procedures provide for reconsideration of any interpretation when or if additional information that might af-fect an interpretation is available. Further, persons aggrieved by an interpretation may appeal to the cognizant ASME Committee. A
