Consensus is defined by the American National StandardsInstitute (ANSI), of which ASHR

8、AE is a member and which has approved this standard as an ANS, as “substantial agreement reached bydirectly and materially affected interest categories. This signifies the concurrence of more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity.Consensus requires that all views and objections be co

9、nsidered, and that an effort be made toward their resolution.” Compliance with thisstandard is voluntary until and unless a legal jurisdiction makes compliance mandatory through legislation.ASHRAE obtains consensus through participation of its national and international members, associated societies

10、, and public review.ASHRAE Standards are prepared by a Project Committee appointed specifically for the purpose of writing the Standard. The ProjectCommittee Chair and Vice-Chair must be members of ASHRAE; while other committee members may or may not be ASHRAE members, allmust be technically qualifi

PURPOSEThis standard provides uniform methods for laboratorytesting of the flow capacity of refrigerant capillary tubes. 2. SCOPE2.1 This standard pre

27、scribes two test methods, a traditionalmethod and an alternative method, for determining the flowcapacity of capillary tubes such as are used for refrigerantmetering in refrigeration systems. Both methods use drynitrogen and provide comparable results, but the alternativemethod is more convenient if

28、 electronic devices are used. 2.2 The results obtained by the prescribed procedures areindicative of the refrigerant flow characteristics of the tubebut are not intended to represent the actual refrigerant flowcharacteristics in a refrigerating cycle. 2.3 The scope of this standard does not include

29、specifica-tions of tolerances on tube diameters or nitrogen flow capac-ity; however, acceptable variation in test results is suggested. 3. DEFINITIONScapillary tube: tube of small bore (diameters generally rang-ing down to 0.50 mm 0.02 in. ID with length over diameterratio greater than 20) used for

A tempering coil (4) (if necessary) to ensure that thenitrogen entering the test specimen is maintained at theambient temperature of the apparatus, which shall be21C + 3C (70F + 5F).e.

TEST PROCEDURE FOR TRADITIONAL METHODThe test procedure, using a wet-test meter for determiningthe nitrogen flow capac

42、ity of the capillary tube specimen, shallbe as follows.5.1 The tube shall be incorporated into the test apparatus,arranged as shown in Figure 1. Unless otherwise dictated bydesign considerations, the tube shall preferably be tested as astraight length. If the limitations of the test apparatus make i

43、tnecessary to coil or bend the specimen, the minimum radiusof bend shall not be less than 300 mm (11.8 in.).5.2 Adjust the ambient temperature of the apparatus and thetempering coil temperature to the specified value of 21C+3C (70F + 5F).5.3 Adjust the inlet pressure to the desired value. The inletp

44、ressure for various lengths and inside diameter shall beselected using Figure 2 as a guide. (Refer to Section 5.7 ifmultipoint nitrogen flow capacities are desired.)5.4 Allow nitrogen to flow through the meter during twocomplete revolutions of the indicator.5.5 Check and adjust as necessary the wate

45、r level in the wet-test meter according to the manufacturers specification.5.6 Each test run shall consist of determining the time (tothe nearest 0.1 second) it takes a predetermined volume ofnitrogen to pass through the wet-test meter.5.7 If multipoint dry nitrogen flow capacities are desired,flow

46、rates shall be determined at additional values of inletpressure as guided by Figure 2.5.8 A laboratory standard capillary tube developed in-houseafter equipment installation and calibration should be kept forsubsequent equipment check.6. DATA TO BE RECORDEDFOR TRADITIONAL METHOD6.1 Record a volume o

48、est meter.Note: All temperature readings should be within the specifiedrange of 21C +3C (70F +5F). Pressure at the wet-testmeter normally is so small it is unreadable. 6.4 Record the barometric reading and the temperature ofthe barometer. Correct the barometric reading for temperatureonly.7.
