20、merican National Standards Institute.2 ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 150-2000 (RA 2014)(This foreword is not a part of this standard. It is merelyinformative and does not contain requirements necessaryfor conformance to the standard. It has not been pro-cessed according to the ANSI requirements for a stan-da
21、rd and may contain material that has not been subjectto public review or a consensus process.)FOREWORDThis standard was developed to provide a uniform methodfor evaluating the performance of cool storage systemsinstalled in buildings or central plants and is intended to beused by owners, operators,
22、consultants, and others. The testmethod provided in this standard will eliminate the need todevelop a specific test procedure for each individual project.Hereinafter in this foreword, “system” means “cool stor-age system” unless noted otherwise.This standard provides a method of determining the cool
23、-ing performance of a given installation at the time of turnoverto the owner or at any time during its useful life. The standardincludes options for testing a system at times when less thanthe peak load is available. A method is given for defining testloads that enable the user to determine if the c
24、ool storage sys-tem would perform as expected when subjected to the actualpeak load.The standard can also be used to determine the maximumperformance of a new or existing system. This informationmay be desired to optimize the system or to determine the sys-tems current capability prior to an increas
25、e in load or otherchanges to the system.It is recognized that field testing is costly, and this stan-dard may not provide sufficient benefit to warrant its use atevery cool storage installation. Some packaged or modularsystems can be provided with sufficient data to establish theirexpected or design
26、 performance without field testing. How-ever, the user still may elect to carry out a field evaluation tohelp ensure that the system will perform under peak designconditions or to qualify for utility or government incentives.Many cool storage installations are completely or par-tially dependent upon
27、 field assembly of components that can-not be pre-rated or tested prior to assembly. For these systems,field testing is the only way to ensure that the installed systemmeets the specified performance requirements.In other cases, it may be in the best interest of owners,contractors, manufacturers, an
28、d designers to establish the sys-tems level of performance at the time of installation. Thiscould prevent costly disagreements or litigation after the sys-tem has been accepted and operated for a period of time, pos-sibly under different load conditions.The test methods provided in this standard are
29、 intended toestablish cool storage system performance but not to diagnosesystem operation. These test methods specifically enable theuser to economically determine the available capacity of thestorage device, the capacity available to meet a load, and theefficiency of the system in meeting the load.
30、 They can also beused to characterize the cooling loads for a specific buildingor cooling system. Users are encouraged to utilize additionalinstruments and take additional measurements beyond thoserequired by the standard to aid in system diagnosis and opti-mization.Test method results represent the
31、 actual field performanceand capacity under the load profile defined for the test, not themanufacturers nominal rating. The results may not corre-spond to ratings based on other conditions.This standard does not specify how test results will beused. Interpretation of the data obtained from the test
32、is theresponsibility of the user.The committee initially set out to produce separate testmethods for different cool storage technologies. As the testmethods were developed, it became evident that the basicsteps of the test procedure are the same for any technology.The differences among cool storage
33、technologies areaddressed in the definitions of the test conditions.Subsection 5.3 of the standard requires that the user pro-vide certain information about the system necessary to definethe test conditions and requirements. This informationincludes:1. The load profile against which the storage devi
34、ce orsystem must be tested. The user should note that theusable storage capacity of a given storage device orsystem will vary depending on the load profile.2. The tests that are to be performed. Users may elect toperform any number of the individual tests defined inthe standard.3. System parameters
35、such as maximum usable dis-charge temperature, maximum usable cooling supplytemperature, and criteria for determining the fullycharged and fully discharged conditions.4. For the Cool Storage System Capacity Test, theboundaries of the system or the portion of the systemthat is under test.This standar
36、d may be referenced in project specificationsrequiring performance testing of newly installed systems.Users of the standard should note that any specificationrequiring testing under this standard must also include theinformation required by 5.3.This standard does not specifically address testing ofc
37、hillers as components. The scope of the standard doesinclude the performance of chillers or refrigeration machinesas parts of a larger system. Users may want to test chiller per-formance concurrent with performing the tests specified in thisstandard, since much of the required instrumentation mayalr
38、eady be in place.In keeping with common international practice, the stan-dard uses the unit of kWh, instead of the standard SI unit ofMJ, to measure cooling energy stored or delivered. The stan-dard uses the subscripted units kWhTand kWhEto differenti-ate thermal and electrical energy. As MJ becomes
39、 accepted incommon practice, the standard should be revised to use unitsof MJ for cooling energy.Designers of cool storage systems that will be testedunder this standard should specify in their design documentsthe appropriate instrumentation and system configuration asdefined in this standard. The s
40、pecification should include suffi-cient detail for the selected sensor(s) to perform as required.The committee could not find existing flow measurementstandards that address field installation and calibration andthat encompass the broad range of currently available tech-ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 150-2000
41、 (RA 2014) 3nologies and sensors. Consequently, detailed guidance is pro-vided in Annex A.The instrument accuracy requirements in this standardwere selected to provide 10% or better uncertainty in the over-all calculation of capacity for most systems. The standard rec-ommends that users who have str
42、icter requirements conductan uncertainty analysis prior to testing to aid in the selectionof instrument types and the measurement method. The uncer-tainty analysis helps confirm that the selected instruments willprovide the desired accuracy in the test results. A similaruncertainty analysis should a
43、lso be completed after testing,using measured data to determine the uncertainty interval inthe test results. Annex B discusses the issues addressed in anuncertainty analysis.This is a reaffirmation of Standard 150-2000 (RA 2004).This standard was prepared under the auspices of ASHRAE. Itmay be used,
44、 in whole or in part, by an association or govern-ment agency with due credit to ASHRAE. Adherence is strictlyon a voluntary basis and merely in the interests of obtaininguniform guidelines throughout the industry. This version of thereaffirmation has no changes.1.
