Testing of Flat-Plate Air Heaters According to ASHRAE Standard 93-77

D. E. Jones / J. E. Hill

A proposed procedure for testing and rating solar collectors was published by the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) in 1975. In early 1977, the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) adopted ASHRAE Standard 93-77 which is a modified version of the NBS procedure. A test facility for air heaters has been built at NBS in accordance with this Standard. This paper explains briefly the recently adopted test procedure, describes the NBS test facility, and gives typical test results for a commercially available air-cooled solar collector.
