ASHRAE, ACCA will cooperate on load-calculation standard

摘要

Arlington, Va. — After the ACCA objected to a proposed ASHRAE standard on load calculations, both associations have announced that they will work together to devise a new one. The Air Conditioning Contractors of America will cooperate with the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers to develop proposed Standard 183P, "Methods and Procedures for Performing Peak Heating and Cooling Load Calculations." As part of the agreement, the ASHRAE 183P committee will be expanded to include three ACCA-nominated members. The proposed standard will also reference the cooling-load temperature difference calculation method used in ACCA's Manual N.
