31、3. 6.1.1 Values of Standard Cooling Capacity Ratings. These ratings shall be expressed only in terms of thousands of Btu/h in multiples of 2,000 Btu/h for units with Standard Ratings of 400,000 Btu/h and under.

34、e published. 6.1.5 Condenser Airflow Rate. All Standard Ratings for condensing units shall be determined at the condenser airflow rate specified by the manufacturer where the fan drive is adjustable. Where the fan drive is direct-connected, Standard Ratings shall be determined at the condenser airfl

35、ow rate established when the condensing unit is operated with all of the associated inlet louvers and any duct work and attachments considered by the manufacturer as normal installation practice. Once established, the airflow circulation rate of the condensing unit shall remain unchanged throughout

36、all tests prescribed herein, except as altered by automatic controls. AHRI STANDARD 365 (I-P)-2009 4 6.2 Part-Load Rating. Integrated Part-Load Value (IPLV) is in effect until January 1, 2010. See Appendix C for the method and calculation of IPLV. Effective January 1, 2010, all units rated in accord

37、ance with this standard shall include an Integrated Energy Efficiency Ratio (IEER), even if they only have one stage of capacity control. 6.2.1 General. The IEER is intended to be a measure of merit for the part load performance of the unit. Each building may have different part load performance due

38、 to local occupancy schedules, building construction, building location and ventilation requirements. For specific building energy analysis an hour-by-hour analysis program should be used. 6.2.2 Integrated Energy Efficiency Ratio (IEER). For equipment covered by this standard, the IEER shall be calc

39、ulated using tests, derived data, and the following formula. IEER = 0.020 A + 0.617 B + 0.238 C + 0.125 D 1 Where: A = EER at 100% capacity at design conditions B = EER at 75% capacity and reduced ambient (see Table 3) C= EER at 50% capacity and reduced ambient (see Table 3) D= EER at 25% capacity a

40、nd reduced ambient (see Table 3) The IEER rating requires that the unit efficiency be determined at 100%, 75%, 50% and 25% load at the conditions specified in Table 3. If the unit, due to its capacity control logic cannot be operated at the 75%, 50%, or 25% load points, then the 75%, 50%, or 25% per

41、formance should be determined by plotting the efficiency vs. the percent load and using straight line segments to connect the actual performance points and interpolation to determine the rating performance at 75%, 50% and 25%. For the interpolation, an actual capacity point equal to or less than the

42、 required rating point must be used to plot the curves. Extrapolation of the data is not allowed. If the unit cannot be unloaded to the 75%, 50%, or 25% load, then the unit should be run at the minimum step of unloading at the condensing unit conditions defined for each of the rating load points and

43、 then adjust the efficiency for cyclic performance using the following equation. D C CF CTLFCapacityEERLF(C (P P ) P=+2 Where: Capacity = Measured capacity at the lowest machine unloading point operating at the desired part load rating condition (Btu/h) PC= Compressor power at the lowest machine unl

44、oading point operating at the desired part load rating condition (Watts) PCD = Condenser fan power, if applicable, at the minimum step of unloading at the desired part load rating condition (Watts) PCT = Control circuit power and any auxiliary loads (Watts) CD = Degradation coefficient to account fo

45、r cycling of the compressor for capacity less than the minimum step of capacity. CD should be determined using the following equation. DC ( 0.13 LF) 1.13=+ 3 Where: LF = Fractional “on” time for last stage at the desired load point %Load (Full Load Unit Capacity)100LFPart Load Unit Capacity=4 %Load
