Consensus is definedby the Amer
4、ican National Standards Institute (ANSI), of which ASHRAE is a member and which has approved this Standard as an ANS, as“substantial agreement reached by directly and materially affected interest categories. This signifies the concurrence of more than a simple majority,but not necessarily unanimity.
5、 Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that an effort be made toward their resolution.”Compliance with this Standard is voluntary until and unless a legal jurisdiction makes compliance mandatory through legislation. ASHRAE obtains consensus through participation of its

It is merelyinformative and does not contain requirements necessaryfor conformance to the standard. It has not been pro-cessed according to the ANSI
22、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.)FOREWORDASHRAE Standard 184 prescribes methods for obtaining per-formance data rel
23、ating to field-installed liquid-chilling sys-tems. It is intended to provide the minimum requirementsnecessary to conduct field testing in accordance with test cir-cumstances and conditions that the owner and test agencyhave agreed to prior to collecting test data, and are based onthe actual obtaina
24、ble conditions at the location of the field-installed system.The standard provides a great deal of flexibility withregard to test conditions and instrumentation selection.Reporting the uncertainty of the measured and calculated per-formance data before and after testing is a requirement of thestanda
25、rd. The standard does not define a set of conditions underwhich the system shall be operated during testing, nor doesthe standard address the comparison of measured and calcu-lated performance data to any previously defined set of dataor rating information. A performance and uncertainty calculator i
26、n the formof a Microsoft Excelspreadsheet is being developed and isplanned for release in the future as an addendum to thisstandard.1. PURPOSEThe purpose of this standard is to prescribe methods of fieldperformance testing for liquid-chilling systems.2. SCOPE2.1 This standard includes the following
27、types of liquid-chilling systems. These system types are further described inSection 5, “Equipment Types.”2.1.1 Vapor compression cycle.2.1.2 Absorption cycle.2.2 This standard does not include systems with a net refrig-eration capacity less than 10 tonR(35 kW).2.3 This standard does not include a s
28、pecification of stan-dardized test conditions under which the liquid-chilling sys-tem must operate. Test conditions typically reflect theexpected operating conditions and are customer specified.3. USE OF STANDARD 184The standard is intended to be used to measure the perfor-mance of liquid-chilling s
29、ystems that are newly installedequipment or existing systems in any state of operation. Thestandard is intended to prescribe the testing process givenexisting site conditions. Additionally, the standard shall beused to determine and minimize the resultant level of mea-surement uncertainty. The stand
30、ard shall be used by designersof new installations to minimize measurement uncertaintyduring field performance testing.4. DEFINITIONS, ABBREVIATIONS, ANDACRONYMS4.1 General. Certain terms, abbreviations, and acronyms aredefined in this section for the purposes of this standard. Thesedefinitions are
31、applicable to all sections of this standard.Terms that are not defined shall have their ordinarily acceptedmeanings within the context in which they are used. Ordi-narily accepted meanings shall be based on definitions in thecurrent edition of ASHRAE Terminology1. If not defined inASHRAE Terminology
32、, then ordinarily accepted meaningsshall be based on American Standard English language usageas documented in an unabridged dictionary accepted by theadopting authority.4.2 Definitionsauxiliary power: See power.British thermal unit (Btu): the quantity of heat required toraise the temperature of one
33、pound of water by one degreeFahrenheit at a specified temperature. This standard uses theInternational Table (IT) definition, where the quantity of heat isdefined to be 1055.05585262 J (1 BtuIT).capacity: a measurable physical quantity, the rate that heat(energy) is added to or removed from the liqu
34、id side of arefrigerating system. Capacity is defined as the mass flow rateof the liquid multiplied by the difference in enthalpy of liquidentering and leaving the heat exchanger. This standard usesan approximation of the liquid enthalpy difference, based onspecific heat and temperature difference a
35、nd in some casesalso the pressure losses.gross heating capacity: the capacity of the water-cooledcondenser as measured by the total heat transferred fromthe refrigerant to the liquid in the condenser. This valueincludes both the sensible heat transfer and the frictionheat losses from pressure loss e
36、ffects of the liquid flowthrough the condenser. This value is used to calculate theenergy balance of a test.gross cooling capacity: the capacity of the evaporator asmeasured by the total heat transferred from the liquid tothe refrigerant in the evaporator. This value includesboth the sensible heat t

This value is used to calculate the energybalance of a heating capacity: the capacity of the condenser foruseful heating of the thermal load, external to the liquid-chilling system, calculated u

In order tosimplify the text in this standard, the word chiller is used torepresent all forms of equipment included in the scope, be itcooling or heating, with water or other liquid as the fluidbeing cooled or heated.condenser: a refrigera

Desuperheating and subcooling of the refrigerant occursas well in systems that have desuperheaters and subcoolers.air-cooled condenser: a condenser, including condenserfan(s), that condenses refri
