Consensus is defined by the American National Standar

5、ds 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. Consensus requires

6、 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 national and intern

7、ational members, associated societies, and public review.ASHRAE Standards are prepared by a Project Committee appointed specifically for the purpose of writing the Standard.

22、 17-1998 (RA 2003).This standard was prepared under the auspices of the Amer-ican Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). It may be used in whole or in part, by an association or government agency with due credit to ASHRAE. Adherence is strictly on a voluntary basi

23、s and merely in the inter-ests of obtaining uniform standards throughout the industry.This standard prescribes a method of testing capacity of thermostatic expansion valves for use in air-conditioning and refrigeration systems. This standard does not specify the test conditions to be used for obtain

24、ing the standard rating. That is done in a rating standard developed by the Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute (ARI). The latest edition of ARI Standard 750 is referenced for the test conditions to be used in obtaining standard ratings for thermostatic refrigerant expanding valves.The chan

25、ges made for the 2008 revision are as follows: references were numberedreferences were updated1. PURPOSEThis standard prescribes a method of testing the capacity of thermostatic refrigerant expansion valves for use in vapor-compression refrigeration systems.2. SCOPE2.1 This standard is applicable to

26、 a. thermostatic expansion valves (also referred to in this standard as expansion valves) as defined in Section 3, “Definitions,”b. expansion valves of the direct-acting type but not the pilot-operated type, andc. many currently used refrigerants deemed available and suitable according to ANSI/ASHRA

27、E Standard 151and ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 34.22.2 This standard specifies procedures, apparatus, and instrumentation that will produce accurate capacity data.2.3 This standard does nota. specify tests for production, specification compliance, or field testing of expansion valves, norb. specify capacity

28、 rating conditions for testing expansion valves. These may be found in ARI Standard 750.33. DEFINITIONSThe following definitions apply only to parts and terms used in this standard.capacity of an expansion valve: the refrigerating effect in kW (Btu/h or tons) of refrigeration, produced by the mass f

29、low of refrigerant that will pass through the valve under the condi-tions that are cited in Section 5.certified standard instrument: an instrument calibrated by the manufacturer or other reliable agency and certified as trace-able to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).direct-a

30、cting valve: an expansion valve designed so that the valve plug opens the valve port in inverse response to sensed equalizer pressure and in direct response to temperature-sensing element temperature. The valve plug is positioned through direct mechanical linkage to the actuating element (e.g., diap

31、hragm or bellows).evaporator: an evaporatively cooled heat exchanger.external equalizer: in a thermostatic expansion valve, a connection from a selected point in the low-pressure part of the circuit to the system pressure-sensing side of the actuating element such that the selected point pressure is

32、 transmitted to the actuating element (e.g., diaphragm or bellows).initial valve opening: a minimal valve opening position not to exceed 0.05 mm (0.002 in.). internal equalizer: in a thermostatic expansion valve, an inte-gral internal port or passage whereby the system pressure-sensing side of the a

33、ctuating element (e.g., diaphragm or bellows) is exposed to valve outlet pressure.liquid refrigerant flowmeter: a device for determining the refrigerant mass flow rate.nominal capacity: the capacity reported by the manufacturer for an expansion valve, citing ANSI/ARI Standard 7503for the test condit

34、ions.operating superheat: the difference between the temperature at the temperature-sensing element and the system refrigerant vapor saturation temperature corresponding to the valve equalizer pressure.permanent bleed rate: the capacity of the permanent bleed provision under the conditions cited in

35、Section 5, expressed either as a percentage of the nominal capacity or in kW (Btu/hor tons) of refrigerating effect produced by the evaporation of that amount of refrigerant flow.permanent bleed-type valve: a valve that has a fixed flow passage incapable of being closed by action of the valve. Such

36、a fixed orifice permits a flow through or in parallel with the main valve port.pilot-operated valve: expansion valve of a type used on large capacity systems (e.g., direct-expansion chillers) where the required capacity per valve is beyond the range of direct-acting valves; this type of valve is und

37、er the control of a direct-acting valve.ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 17-2008 3refrigerant: the working fluid in a refrigerating system that absorbs heat by evaporating at a low temperature and pressure and rejects heat on condensing at a higher temperature and pressure.shall/shall not: indicate that the pro

38、vision is mandatory if compliance with the standard is claimed.should/is recommended: indicate that the provision is not mandatory but is desirable as good practice.static superheat: the superheat required to position the valve at the initial valve opening.superheat change: the difference between th

39、e static superheat and the operating superheat.temperature-sensing element: the part of the expansion valve that senses the temperature at the superheat control point, normally located at the outlet of the evaporator. This element may be remote or integral to the expansion valve body.test valve: the

40、 thermostatic expansion valve being tested for capacity in accordance with this standard.thermostatic expansion valve: a device for controlling super-heat by regulating the mass flow of refrigerant to a refrigera-tion load, actuated by changes in equalizer pressure and temperature-sensing element te

41、mperature.valve plug: a movable part that provides a variable restriction in a port.4.
