This seminar provides an overview of the load-based testing and rating approach for unitary air conditioners and heat pumps and highlights shortcomings of the current AHRI 210/240 rating standard. Speakers explain the fundamentals of the load-based testing methodology, how the testing procedure has been developed and why such approach has the potential to better capture field performance of unitary equipment under different climate conditions, building types and variable speed operation. Speakers also address the need for validation and repeatability of the testing results as well as convergence criteria.
