摘要

This study was undertaken to address the concern that typical equipment used in the field by contractors for measuring total airflows at return grilles in residential forced-air systems may not be accurate enough for the purposes of measuring return flows for use in Title 24 applications. The measurement errors are a combination of errors in determining the airflow through the measurement device and the insertion loss effects of actually performing the measurement. The technical reasons for insertion loses are that most devices used for airflow measurement introduce additional airflow resistance, leading to reduced total system airflows or, more significantly for multiple-branch systems, reduced airflow only through the branch currently being measured. The experimental work comprised a series of tests where airflow was measured using a range of measurement techniques and devices. An experimental apparatus was built that could be configured as a one-, two-, or three-branch return system. The apparatus used a typical gas furnace with two different blower motors-one permanent split capacitor and one brushless permanent magnet. The measured airflows were compared to reference airflow measurements using inline airflow meters built into the test apparatus. The experimental results showed that some devices had reasonable results (typical errors of 5% or less) but others hadmuch larger errors (up to 25%). Because manufacturers' accuracy estimates for their equipment do not include many of the sources of error found in actual field measurements (replicated in the laboratory testing in this study) there is a need for a test method that could be used to determine the actual uncertainty in this specific application. To address this need, a draft test method has been prepared for determining the uncertainty of airflow measurements at resi- dential HVAC terminals. This test method, when finalized, can be used by entities to specify required accuracy of measurement devices used to show compliance with standards.
