A MODEL TO COMPARE FREEZING CONTROL STRATEGIES FOR RESIDENTIAL AIR-TO-AIR HEAT RECOVERY VENTILATORS (HRVS).

Author(s) : PHILLIPS E. G.

Summary

A COMPUTER PROGRAM WAS DEVELOPEDTO SIMULATE THE PERFORMANCE OF RESIDENTIAL AIR-TO-AIR HRVS OF VARIOUS EFFECTIVENESSES OPERATING UNDER FROSTING CONDITIONS. ALGORITHMS WERE DEVELOPED TO PREDICT THE ENERGY PERFORMANCE OF THE HRVS FOR SEVERAL FROST CONTROL AND DEFROST STRATEGIES FOR ANY PRESCRIBED CLIMATIC CONDITIONS. THE PAPER DESCRIBES THE WEATHER MODEL, THE HEAT EXCHANGER PERFORMANCE/FROSTING MODEL, AND THE DEFROST AND FROST CONTROL ALGORITHMS.
