They may use relatively inexpensive, nonintrusiveinstrumentation which system installers can reasonably be expected to have on hand.3.2 Re

16、commended tests for each component or subsystem fall into categories according to the level of complexity and cost(Note 1).3.2.1 Category AThe most rudimentary tests, such as visual inspection.3.2.2 Category BTests that require minimal instrumentation and skill.3.2.3 Category CTests that require mos

17、t expensive or sophisticated instrumentation or more time to perform.NOTE 1Category B tests should include Category A tests as prerequisite, etc.3.2.4 Selection of the appropriate test is at the discretion of the tester and purchaser, who should be aware of the tradeoffsbetween cost and accuracy at

18、each level of testing. The tester should make these clearly known to the purchaser of the system whomay wish to assume the costs of more sophisticated testing (Note 2). Preferably there should be a part of the installation contractbetween the tester and purchaser spelling out test specifics (for exa

19、mple, Category A, B or C for each subtest).NOTE 2Consult your local National Balancing Bureau or Associated Air Balance Council.3.3 Instrumentation includes sensors to monitor some or all of the following conditions:3.3.1 Total incident solar radiation (in the plane of the collector array),3.3.2 Out

20、door ambient temperature,3.3.3 Internal building temperature near storage system,3.3.4 Collector loop flow rate and temperatures, and3.3.5 Storage temperature.3.3.6 Each system should be instrumented to the practical level required for calculation (see NIST standard 76-1137 for anothermethod to inst

21、rument and evaluate solar systems). Some sites may need additional instrumentation as a result of their uniquerequirements. Fig. 1 shows a typical closed loop system with the instrumentation required for the various tests.3.4 The various types of available instrumentation are listed in Tables 1-4. A

38、.2 General Inspection:5.2.1 The ability to perform as intended for the specified period of time defines system durability and reliability. Systemperformance depends on the proper operation of each of the subsystems. The manual containing drawings, specifications, andengineering data shall serve as a

39、 benchmark for the inspection.5.2.2 The following components should be inspected for proper installation (see Practice E1056) and operation to check for anymalfunctions, leaks or improper adjustments. See Ref (1) for an Installation Checklist.5.2.2.1 Collectors and connections,5.2.2.2 Controls and s

40、ensors,5.2.2.3 Insulation,5.2.2.4 Interconnectionsmechanical and electrical,5.2.2.5 Pumps and motors,5.2.2.6 Valves and fittings,5.2.2.7 Storage containers and media,5.2.2.8 Heat exchangers,5.2.2.9 Dampers and ducting,5.2.2.10 Air or liquid systems leaks,5.2.2.11 Interrelated support systems, includ

41、ing other air handlers, chillers, heaters, or heat pumps, and5.2.2.12 Fans and air handlers.5.2.3 Most of the failures reported have been in the collector subsystem and connections and controls with considerably fewerfailures reported for valves and pump subsystems. There has been a high incidence o

42、f improper system operation due to controlsimproperly connected or adjusted.5.2.4 A visual inspection should be made of all connections (see Practice E1056, 6.7.6) to check for evidence of leaks orpotential future corrosion due to improper use of materials (Practice E1056, 6.7.2), improper joining o

43、f dissimilar metals (PracticeE1056, 6.7.14), or improper fluids (Practice E1056, 6.5). See Ref (2) for a leak check on air systems. A pressure check on liquidsystems should be done to see if it meets manufacturers recommendations.5.2.5 Check pumps for noise (most pumps are very quiet). Noisy fluid f

44、low almost always indicates a bad pump, cavitation orair in the system and is symptomatic of further problems. In an open or drainback system noisy fluid flow will occur if there iswater loss due to leakage. If a pump problem is suspected, one way to determine if the pump is seized or has other elec

45、tricalproblems is to touch the assembly to see if it is hotter than the fluid circulating through it. Also any burning odors may indicateelectrical problems.5.3 Collector Operation and Effectiveness (See Practice E823, PracticeISO E9049806, and ASHRAE Standard 93-1986 forother tests). Table 5 gives

46、the typical operating ranges of the test parameters for various collector system configurations.TABLE 5 Parameters of Solar Domestic Hot Water SystemsSystem Type Flow Rate, cm3/m2s(gal/minft2)TemperatureRise, On, C (F)TemperatureRise, Off,C (F)SpecificHeat, Ws/gC (Btu/lbF)Density, g/cm3 (lb/gal)Sola
