Manufacturers Consumers Electric utilities
Federal appliance standards impact three stakeholders:
Unrepresentative equipment ratings hurt our ability to cost‐effectively serve our customers:• Give us inaccurate information on which to base major capital investment
decisions i.e. power plant construction driven by peak demand• Limit our ability to use most economically efficient path to meeting consumer
demand
Performed sensitivity analysis of IEER metric

We will present two analyses

Evaluated system rating, published
performance data for representativeness
Field data
Laboratory measurements
1
Note: Laboratory investigation focused on cooling performance
We evaluated a VRF‐HR system in the field
• Location: Davis, California (DOE climate zone: 3)• Outdoor unit:
– 10‐ton,120 kBtu/hr condensing unit with heat recovery (simultaneous heating/cooling)
– Two inverter‐driven, direct flash injected scroll compressors with soft‐start capability
– Scrolls have an asymmetrical design with rotating compressor operation
– Refrigerant flow is controlled by electronic expansion valves throughout the system
– EER: 13.1, IEER: 28.7 (Non‐ducted configuration)
• Indoor units:– Thirteen three‐speed cassette fans (high, medium,
low) with capacity– Capacity ratio: 127.5%

Three takeaways from field study
5
Steady performance
Rated EER: 13.10
Three takeaways from field study:1. Rated EER represents
average performance2. Performance drops off at
high and low outside air temperature
3. Rated IEER is not representative of most measurements
Rated IEER: 28.7
Next: explored system performance at ATS lab
• Multidisciplinary team of over 120 engineers, scientists, and technicians
• Providing technology‐based, innovative, high‐value services to the company for over 40 years
• Clients include:

Leveraged Internet of Things technology to measure actual performance
Internet of Things (IoT) is defined as the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances, and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and connectivity which enables these things to connect, collect and exchange data.

“Dynamic” test approach defined as measuring equipment lab performance when the equipment operates with “as shipped and installed” controls
Compared four sets of VRF performance data

ATS dynamic full‐load test HT.10.SCE.250 Three pipe system – cooling
Indoor condition: 80F DBT/67F WBTCapacity ratio: 125%
In two VRF systems from different manufacturers, ATS and EPRI observed much lower EERs than
published by manufacturer
Tested VRF system does not operate at fixed speed

System capacity cycled to maintain an indoor
temperature setpoint within the factory default dead‐band
of ~+/‐ 2F
BL – Building load; OA – Outside air; RA: Return air;
Tdb – Dry bulb temperature; Twb – Wet bulb temperature
Indoor temperature: 80F DB, 67F WBAverage EER: 6.57 Estimated EER based on manufacturer data: 14.39
Degradation due to cycling is much larger than assumed as shown in the gap between average and OEM estimated
EER
Manufacturer total capacity: 145 MBH
At low temperatures, tested VRF system cycles
12
At low loads, the system behaves like a system with constant capacity by cycling on and off to maintain
setpoint
BL – Building load; OA – Outside air; RA: Return air;
Tdb – Dry bulb temperature; Twb – Wet bulb temperature
Indoor temperature: 80F DB, 67F WBAverage EER: 8.09Estimated EER based on manufacturer data: 23.6
Manufacturer total capacity: 150 MBH
Dynamic tests easier to set up, run vs. fixed‐speed tests
• We were unable to directly compare fixed‐compressor speed test method vs. dynamic test methods– Fixed‐compressor speed test method requires locking the system at four different speeds to measure part‐
load EERs for evaluation of IEER– Written instructions and proprietary equipment from the manufacturer are required to override the “as
shipped” controls in order to lock the system at different speeds– We were unable to execute the required NDA
• Based on experience testing residential mini‐splits using fixed‐speed and dynamic methods, we observed: – Dynamic tests were easier to set up than fixed‐speed test procedures which require legal support to gain
NDA and technician intervention / fine tuning of system– Dynamic full‐load test takes approximately the same amount of time as the fixed‐compressor speed test per
test condition– Dynamic test conditions can be scripted into laboratory operating software and run without continuous
supervision. In contrast, locking out system controls requires intervention by the manufacturer’s technician at each test point
13
We expect test burden for dynamic full‐load test to be less than for current approach
Dynamic full‐load test takes ~10h to gather data for 7 conditions

• With dynamic full‐load test, system converges quickly resulting in similar test lengths as AHRI 1230
• Additional benefit: Dynamic test conditions can be scripted into laboratory operating software and run without continuous supervision
Lab and field data suggest EER95 as most representative rating option
• Lab and field data demonstrate:1. EER95 represents average
performance2. Performance drops off at high and
low outside air temperature3. Rated IEER is NOT representative
• Best option for fixed capacity rating of VRF equipment appears to be EER95
• Considerations:– Industry is generally moving
towards IEER using fixed capacity EER
– IEER from EER dynamic testing data will be more representative
– Is IEER the ”right” metric for RTUs with variable‐speed compressors?
– What are the implications for different metrics for different HVAC categories?
15
We see two options to move forward
16
Preferred option Back‐up option
Test procedure Adopt dynamic full‐load test
Current method based on fixed speed testing
Metric Updated IEER EER95
We recognize that our preferred option is a major change. Options to smooth transition include:• Delay finalization of test method• DOE’s technical team works stakeholders to assess the dynamic full‐load test method• Manufacturers evaluate their equipment with the dynamic full‐load test• Any other options?
Note: EPRI and ATS teams are available to respond to any questions, and would welcome the opportunity to demonstrate the dynamic full‐load test for DOE’s technical team

Current IEER Calculation Method
2
• 6.2 Part‐Load Ratings.. All units rated in accordance with the standard shall include an Integrated Part Load Energy Efficiency Ratio (IEER), even if they only have one stage of capacity control.
• 6.2.1 General. The IEER is intended to be a measure of merit for the part load performance of the unit. Each building may have different part load performance due to local occupancy schedules, building construction, building location and ventilation requirements. For specific building energy analysis an hour‐by‐hour analysis program should be used.
• 6.2.2 Integrated Energy Efficiency Ratio (IEER). For equipment covered by this standard, the IEER shall be calculated using test derived data and the following formula.
IEER = 0.020*A + 0.617*B + 0.238*C + 0.125*D• Bin A EER at 100% net capacity at design conditions Loads 97% to 100%
• Bin B EER at 75% net capacity and reduced ambient Loads 97% to 62.5%
• Bin C EER at 50% net capacity and reduced ambient Loads 62.5% to 37.5%
• Bin D EER at 25% net capacity and reduced ambient Loads 0% to 37.5%

Findings: Case 1 IEER Factors, Binning by Frequency

National Average
Weights based on frequency of hours/total mechanical hours for each bin.
Current IEER Calculation Method• Bin A 97% to 100% Design Bin (100%)• Bin B 97% to 62.5% Peak Bin (75%)• Bin C 62.5% to 37.5% Low Bin (50%)• Bin D 0% to 37.5% Min Bin (25%)
1. Updated analysis does not match current IEER weighting.2. This method considers each hour as equal in value and
ignores the total load /year.From 7 field sites of VRF installations NEEA has studied: “the systems almost never operate at full capacity, and only rarely operate at anything close to 75% capacity.”
Case 1 would result in 22% increase in IEER based on manufacturer data

Recommendations based on IEER sensitivity analysis
10
1. DOE to review our IEER analysis and share their perspective on best approach for updating IEER calculation
2. For VRF, consider modifying weighting factors to exclude ventilation loading
3. Consider modifying the bin‐sizes to align the average of each bin to be the test conditions used i.e. 25%, 50%, 75% respectively.
4. Consider evaluating Market Factors. Key considerations:
• Are building type breakdown % still representative of US?
• Are equipment sales distribution by volume % still representative of US and VRF?
• Currently based on (3) prototypes only: Medium Office, Standalone Retail, Primary School. Should other building types be included?
5. Consider requiring manufacturers to disclose part‐load coefficients (to allow regional incentivizing of regionally‐prioritized part‐load efficiency) (to improve ability to model energy performance and predict operations)
Note: Regarding analytical burden, work to date was completed over ~2 weeks
In summary: Why is it important to get this right?

Manufacturers
•Creates an unfair advantage for VRF manufacturers compared to other equipment types e.g. variable air volume (VAV) systems; and for equipment with state‐of‐the‐art control systems compared to legacy systems
Consumers
•Gives consumers inaccurate information for making rational purchase decisions between VRF systems and other equipment types
Electric utilities
•Gives utilities inaccurate information on which to base major capital investment decisions i.e. power plant construction driven by peak demand
• Limits utilities’ ability to use most economically efficient path to meeting consumer demand e.g. leveraging performance benefits through building code compliance software credits, incentive programs
Unrepresentative test procedures and inaccurate metrics impact three stakeholders:
Manufacturers of competitive equipment are feeling the pinch

Advertisement from ASHRAE Journal – July 2018“These ratings are not … designed to make apples‐to‐apples comparisons between different types of equipment”
“Before you build, get fast, accurate and free annual energy consumption and life‐cycle cost comparisons based on actual system performance, actual installed cost, and actual operating cost data”
Our data is for one field site and two independent lab studies. But our concerns are more broadly shared
