Summary of Test Methods4.1 Thermostat CalibrationThe accuracy of the oventhermostat is checked at

23、350F (177C), the set point for all butthe browning test, which is 300F (149C). This is accom-plished by comparing the ovens temperature control settingwith the temperature at the center of the ovens cavity. Ifnecessary, the control is adjusted so that the maximum differ-ence between its reading and

24、the temperature at the center ofthe cavity is no more than 65F (62.8C).4.2 Preheat Energy Consumption and TimeThe time andenergy required to preheat the oven from room temperature (756 5F) to 340F is determined.4.3 Energy Input RateThe input rate of the oven isdetermined to check whether the oven is

25、 operating properly. Ifthe measured input rate is not within 5 % of the rated input, allfurther testing ceases until the appliance can be made tooperate within this specification. For gas ovens, the pilotenergy rate and the fan and control energy rate are alsodetermined.4.4 Idle Energy RateThe idle

26、energy rate (kBtu/h or kW)is determined with the oven set to maintain 350 6 5F (177 62.8C).4.5 Cooking Energy Effciency and Production CapacityThe cooking energy efficiency and production rate are deter-mined during light-, medium-, and heavy-load cooking tests.4.6 Cooking UniformityThe uniformity o

27、f heating withinthe ovens cavity is determined and reported based on theaverage temperature on each rack during cooking tests (pans ofice simulating pans of frozen food).4.7 White Sheet Cake BrowningThe uniformity of brown-ing from rack to rack is documented using white sheet cakes.5.

31、5 Preheat Energy Consumption and TimeThis test pro-vides a measure of time and energy required to preheat theoven cavity from ambient temperature to the thermostat setpoint temperature.5.6 Idle Energy RateThis test provides a measure of anempty ovens energy consumption at a typical cooking tem-perat

32、ure setting. It also provides an indicator of the combinedeffectiveness of components of the ovens design (for example,insulation, door seals, and combustion efficiency) that influ-ence its energy consumption.5.7 Cooking Energy EffciencyThis test provides a mea-sure of the ovens energy efficiency wh

33、ile light, medium, andheavy loads are being cooked.5.8 Production CapacityThis test provides informationthat allows an operator to select an oven that matches foodoutput requirements.5.9 Cooking UniformityThis test provides informationregarding the ovens ability to cook food at the same ratethrougho
