The following information is based on that document and is included here for emphasis and for the convenience of the user of
21、the Code. It is expected that the Code user is fully cognizant of Sections 1 and 3 of ASME PTC 1 and has read them prior to applying this Code. ASME Performance Test Codes provide test procedures that yield results of the highest level of accuracy consistent with the best engineering knowledge and p
22、ractice currently available. They were developed by balanced committees representing all concerned interests and specify procedures, instrumentation, equipment-operating requirements, calculation methods, and uncertainty analysis. When tests are run in accordance with a code, the test results themse
23、lves, without adjustment for uncertainty, yield the best available indication of the actual performance of the tested equipment. ASME Performance Test Codes do not specify means to compare those results with contractual guarantees. Therefore, it is recommended that the parties to a commercial test a
24、gree before starting the test and preferably before signing the contract on the method to be used for comparing the test results with the contractual guarantees. It is beyond the scope of any code to determine or interpret how such comparisons shall be made. vii FOREWORD PTC 11-1946, entitled Test C
25、ode for Fans, was published by the Society in 1946. As noted in its Foreword, the personnel of the committee that developed the Code consisted of members of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers, the National Association of Fan Manufacturers, and the American Society of Mechanica
26、l Engineers. The Code, as written, was a laboratory test standard in that it provided instructions for arrangement of test equipment, such as ducts, plenum chamber, and flow straighteners, as well as instruments. It even stated that the test could be conducted in the manufacturers shops, the custome
27、rs premises, or elsewhere. Most ASME Power Test Codes (later called Performance Test Codes) provided instructions for testing equipment after it was installed. Since PTC 11-1946 was a laboratory standard, it was allowed to go out of print with the expectation that a revised code would be written tha
28、t would provide directions for site testing of fans. In July of 1961, a new PTC 11 Committee was formed. Several drafts were prepared, but all of them essentially provided laboratory directions. This Committee still considered field or site testing to be impractical unless laboratory conditions coul
29、d be duplicated. The PTC 11 Committee was reorganized in 1971. It initially attempted to resolve the difficulties of site testing by resorting to model testing. This was not acceptable to the Society. Ultimately, procedures were developed that could be used in the field without the need to modify th
30、e installation so as to condition the flow for measurement. The Committee performed tests to determine the acceptability of these procedures. These tests included full-scale field tests of two large mechanical-draft fans, as well as various laboratory tests of various probes for measuring flow angle
31、s and pressures. Subsequent tests 3 performed independently of the Committee have demonstrated the practicability of this Code with regard to both manpower and equipment in a large power-plant situation. The Committee also monitored the progress of an International Committee that was writing test co
32、des for fans. While this Committee, ISO 117, had not completed its work, it was obvious that several things they were doing should be incorporated in PTC 11. The major item contributed by ISO 117 is the concept of specific energy (also called work per unit mass), which, when combined with mass flow
33、rate, provides an approach to fan performance that can be used instead of the volume flow rate/pressure approach. ISO also recognizes the distributionality of velocity across the measuring plane, and PTC 11 incorporates provisions to account for this. This resulted in the second edition, published i
34、n 1984. Work on the current revision began on January 17, 2002. The goal for this effort was to revise and update several sections to make the Code more universally accepted and user friendly. For example, additional points of agreement between parties to the test were developed. The number and geom
35、etry of the traverse grid elements were changed to allow greater variation in the aspect parameter. A statistical procedure was developed to guide the user in selection of traverse planes for defining fan flow. Greater emphasis was placed on the use of five-hole (three-dimensional) probes to complet
36、ely characterize flow at the traverse plane(s). Guidance was included for establishing fan operation at test conditions so that it would be near specified conditions after all corrections have been applied. A procedure was developed to correct fan power from test conditions to specified conditions.
37、Historically, fan performance was typically based on design, or test block, conditions that represent the fans ability to move a specific amount of gas at a specific system resistance. It is generally taken to be the fans maximum performance capability. More recently, however, there has been increas
38、ed emphasis in demonstrating fan performance at a power guarantee point usually corresponding to part load on a fan. This presents some unique testing challenges. viii There have also been significant advancements in electronic technology. Readily available portable computers are now able to support
39、 off-the-shelf data acquisition systems to monitor key parameters and provide real-time trends of operational steadiness during a test. This capability extends to traverse data as well, where key pressures are electronically monitored to determine the alignment of directionally sensitive probes with
40、 flow, to average all pressures, and to archive all information. Repeatability of results is greatly improved because mental averaging and manual data logging are eliminated. Finally, data reduction turnaround time is greatly shortened, which increases the productivity of test personnel when multipl
41、e test runs are required or where test time may be limited. While some installations may not meet ideal inlet and/or outlet conditions for flow distribution or geometry, the objective of this test code is to determine a fans installed performance without listing any criteria for disqualification of
42、this test procedure. The subcommittee has made every effort to include test and data reduction methods that will lead to results that will be acceptable to all parties to the test. This Code was approved by the Council as a Standard practice of the Society by action of the Board on Standardization a
43、nd Testing on April 7, 2008. It was also approved as an American National Standard by the ANSI Board of Standards Review on July 15, 2008. ix ASME PTC COMMITTEE PERFORMANCE TEST CODES (The following is the roster of the Committee at the time of approval of this Code.)
