21、OSEThis standard prescribes methods of laboratory testing tomeasure the heat rejection capabilities of remote mechanicaldraft, air-cooled refrigerant condensers for refrigerating andair conditioning. The objective is to ensure uniform perfor-mance information for establishing ratings.2. SCOPE2.1 Thi

22、s standard provides a. uniform methods of testing for obtaining performance data,b. definition of terms,c. specification of data to be recorded and calculationformulas, andd. test limits and tolerances.2.2 This standard does not covera. methods of test for production or field use,b. liquid-cooled co

23、ndensers, norc. heat reclaim condensers using less than full refrigerantliquid condensing.3. DEFINITIONS3.1 Generalcalorimeter: a device for accurately determining refrigerantflow rate by the principle of known heat input or output,known physical characteristics of the transfer media, andobserved th

24、ermal differences.condenser subcooling: number of degrees that a pressur-ized liquid is cooled lower than its saturated temperature atthat pressure.condensing temperature: the saturation temperature, indegrees, corresponding to the measured refrigerant pressure atthe condenser inlet.remote mechanica

25、l-draft air-cooled refrigerant condenser:a self-contained, waterless refrigerating system componentthat fully condenses refrigerant vapor by rejecting heat to air,mechanically circulated by integral fans and fan drives over itsfinned-tube heat transfer surface, causing a temperature rise inthe air.

26、Refrigerant gas desuperheating and liquid subcoolingare expected to occur.shall (“it is required”): term used in standards and regula-tions (as “shall” or “shall not”) to indicate a provision that ismandatory.should (“it is recommended”): term used in standards andregulations to indicate a provision

27、 that is not mandatory butthat is recommended as good practice.temperature difference (TD): the difference in degreesbetween the condensing temperature and the entering air dry-bulb temperature.3.2 Coil Dimensionscoil depth: the dimension of the finned surface as measuredfrom the entering air face t

28、o the leaving air face in the directionof airflow.coil face area: the product of the coil length and coil width.coil length: the dimension of the face of the coil in the direc-tion of the finned tubes exposed to the flow of air.coil width: the dimension of the face of the coil perpendicularto the di

29、rection of the tubes and includes only the width overthe tube and fins exposed to the airflow. Note: Height may besubstituted for width if the condenser has a vertical coil orien-tation.3.3 Testing Termsequilibrium: the steady-state condition during which the fluc-tuations of variables being measure

31、that equilibrium was obtained prior to thetest andb. those recorded during the period of the test.4. TEST METHODS4.1 General4.1.1 To fulfill the requirements of this standard, twosimultaneous methods of determining condenser capacityshall be usedone primary method and one confirmingmethod. The prima

32、ry method utilizes the refrigerant massflow rate and enthalpy differences of the refrigerant enteringand leaving the condenser. This is determined from the accu-rate measurement of the pressure-temperature state of boththe refrigerant gas entering and liquid leaving the condenser.Condenser heat of r

33、ejection shall then be calculated as a prod-uct of refrigerant flow rate measured (see Section 4.1.2) andthe enthalpy difference.ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 20-1997 (RA 2016) 34.1.2 Primary Methods4.1.2.1 Liquid-Line Flow Method. Refrigerant massflow rate is determined by direct meter reading. This is thep

34、referred primary method.4.1.2.2 Low-Side Electric Calorimeter Method.Refrigerant mass flow rate is determined from the measuredelectrical heat input to a calorimeter divided by the enthalpychange of the refrigerant passing through it.4.1.2.3 Low-Side Water Chiller Method. Refrigerantflow rate is det

35、ermined from the measured water-side heatinput to the chiller divided by the enthalpy change of therefrigerant passing through it.4.1.3 Confirming Methods4.1.3.1 Low-Side Electric Calorimeter Method. Con-denser heat rejection rate is determined by arriving at the sumof the electrical heat input to t

36、he calorimeter and the electricalpower input utilized for the mechanical compression of therefrigerant circulated through the condenser (as corrected forany non-insulated refrigerant line losses).4.1.3.2 Low-Side Water Chiller Method. Condenserheat rejection rate is determined by measuring the sum o

37、f thewater-side heat input to the chiller and the electrical powerinput utilized for the mechanical compression of the refriger-ant circulated through the condenser.4.1.3.3 High-Side Air Calorimeter Method. Measure-ments of the airflow rate shall be made by the use of precisionairflow nozzle(s) (see

38、 Section 6.2.9). The condenser heattransfer rate shall then be calculated as the product of the airmass flow rate, specific heat, and temperature rise of the air.4.1.3.4 Calibrated Compressor Method. Condensercapacity shall be determined from lab test data utilizing a cal-ibrated compressor. The cal

39、ibrated compressor shall beemployed within the range of test conditions of its calibration.The condenser heat rejection rate is taken from the compres-sor calibration curve at the test operating points of refrigerantpressure and temperature and power (kW) of the compressor.4.1.3.5 Suction Line Orifi

40、ce Method. Refrigerantmass flow as determined by the orifice method set forth inANSI/ASHRAE Standard 41.7-1984 (RA 2006),StandardMethod for Measurement of Flow of Gas.104.2 Energy Balance. For a test run to be valid, the heatrejection capacity of the condenser, as measured by the pri-mary and the co

41、nfirming methods, shall agree within 5% (seeSection 7.7). Note: A confirming method may be another ofthe primary methods not therein used for that test run.5. TEST INSTRUMENTS5.1 General. Calibration of all instrumentation, includingpressure transducers and temperature diodes and their cir-cuits, ut

42、ilized for test measurements for Sections 8.3, 8.4, and8.5, shall be performed before and after each run or series oftest runs extending over not more than seven elapsed days.Calibration shall be traceable to primary or secondary stan-dards calibrated by the National Institute of Standards andTechno

43、logy (NIST). Standard test instruments that have beencalibrated in accordance with such standards, having the sameor greater accuracy than required by this standard, which areused solely for test laboratory standardizing purposes, complywith the intent of this paragraph.Each instrument calibration s

44、hall be recorded and a copythereof made part of the test record of the condenser. Beforeand after test calibration shall be within the accuracy limitsstated as follows for each instrument type. Where calibrationof an instrument after a test series exceeds the applicable limit,analysis may be conduct

45、ed to determine whether the possibleerror induced by the uncertainty is significant, that is, wouldcause the primary and confirming heat rejections to differ bymore than 5%. If not, the result may be retained. This appliesexcept where the out-of-calibration instrument is employed inboth the primary

46、and confirming method, the run or series ofruns shall be discarded.5.2 Temperature-Measuring Instruments5.2.1 Temperature measurements shall be made with aninstrument or instrument system meeting the accuracy andprecision requirements in Section 5.2.2. The following are incommon use for this purpose

47、: a. mercury-in-glass thermometersb. thermocouples with potentiometerc. electric resistance thermometers, including thermistorsand other semiconductor-type devices5.2.2 The accuracy of the temperature-measuring instru-ments shall be within limits as follows:a. dry-bulb air and water temperatures: 1%

48、 of the smallestrequired test temperature difference (TD) computed inaccordance with Section l1.5, i.e., 0.1F (0.06 K) for a10F (6 K) minimum test TDb. refrigerant vapor temperatures: 1.0F (0.6C)c. all other temperatures: 0.5F (0.3C)5.2.3 In no case shall the smallest decimal scale divisionof the in

49、strument exceed twice the specified accuracy; forexample, if the specified accuracy is to be 0.5F (0.3C), thesmallest scale division shall not exceed 1.0F (0.6C).5.2.4 Wherever possible, arrange temperature-measuringinstruments used to measure the change in temperature of a liq-uid or gas so that they readily can be interchanged between inletand outlet positions after every reading, to improve accuracy.5.2.5 The use of two complete sets of temperature-mea-suring instruments, or one air-sampling tube arrangement,meeting the requirements for measuring condenser e
