- Title
A Closer Look At Chiller Ratings.
- Authors
Geister, W. Ryan; Thompson, Mike
- Abstract
The article focuses on the increasing use of the integrated part load value (PILV) in the heating, ventilating and air-conditioning industry (HVAC) in the U.S. It outlines the challenges of the HVAC in increasing design productivity which motivated it to use IPLV by the AirConditioning, Heating and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI). However, it suggests that IPLV should not be used as an efficiency standard because it does not accurately represent a chiller plant's operating characteristics.
