4 Policy Drivers AB32: GHG Goals By GHG reduced 25% below 1990 levels CLTEESP, Big Bold Energy Efficiency Strategies Commercial New Construction ZNE by 2030 HVAC Market Transformation Goal 4: New HVAC Technologies & System Diagnostics 3
5 California HVAC Facts CA commercial non-coincident peak demand 15 GW and annual energy use 67 billion kwh Cooling = 4GW, 10 billion kwh (15%) Single zone packaged and split systems comprise 70% of CA commercial HVAC 81% of single zone packaged and split <65,000 Btu/h California Commercial End-Use Survey Peak demand values are not coincident across multiple end uses and do not sum up to commercial segment total 3. California Commercial Saturation Survey (CSS) Report FINAL. 4
6 Problem Definition At least 10% of commercial HVAC energy due to excessive run time, poorly maintained equipment, and controls problems 1 More understanding is needed regarding the impacts of overlooked maintenance 1.

10 Focusing on Important Common Faults Selected with industry expert guidance 1. Low Refrigerant Charge 2. High Refrigerant Charge 3. Liquid Line Restrictions 4. Non-Condensables 5. Evaporator Airflow Reduction 6. Condenser Airflow Reduction 7. Economizer communication/mechanical faults 9

13 FDD Technologies FDD technologies can help enhance HVAC maintenance practices with consistent, reliable, & increased understanding of the HVAC system In-field tools, onboard systems Troubleshooting existing faults & early prevention Sustained, optimized HVAC performance Improved human comfort/productivity & equipment life Improved efficiency & reduced impacts to GHG emissions Reduced impacts to economic resources of customers 12
14 FDD Barriers and Challenges Need for Understanding FDD Technologies Performance Little/no consistency across technologies No industry accepted methods to make FDD value more transparent/quantifiable Functions, capabilities, accuracy, reliability High Technology Cost & Unknown End-User Interaction How does it enhance maintenance? Technology must meet somewhere with a well trained/experienced technician What faults exist / likely to occur? Correctly diagnosed? What corrective actions taken, if any? 13
15 2. Project Description & Long-Term Activities Establish Technical Advisory Group (TAG) Develop FDD Lab Test Method Quantify Impacts of Common Faults Explore FDD Accuracy 5-Ton RTU Onboard & In-Field FDD Long-term Activities Assess new technologies under SCE Emerging Technologies program & enhance EE measures Engage/inform industry (ASHRAE, SPC207P, WHPA ) Strengthen T-24 Energy Code, contribute to federal voluntary/mandatory standards 14
16 Lab Testing: Strategy & Monitoring Plan 45 Steady-state tests conducted at 3 rd party AHRIcertified lab & SCE s TTC Performance metrics: gross cooling, total power, & efficiency 65 Measurement points recorded every 20 seconds 2 Economizer tests non-ss-test-style 15
17 3. Results 16
18 FDD Test Units Three FDD test units: two in-field, one onboard Wide library of alarms/diagnostic messages available across the three FDD, not all applicable to fault test scope FDD Test Unit A = 6/46 alarms pertinent to test scope FDD Test Unit B = 12/49 alarms pertinent to test scope FDD Test Unit C = 16/36 alarms pertinent to test scope FDD Test FDD Test FDD Test Fault Unit A Unit B Unit C Low Charge High Charge Liquid Line Restrictions Non-Condensables X X Evaporator Airflow Reduction Condenser Airflow Reduction Economizer Mechanical/Communications Faults X X 17
19 FDD Potential Responses 1 1. No Response the FDD protocol cannot be applied for a given input scenario, or does not give an output because of excessive uncertainty. 2. Correct the operating condition, whether faulted or unfaulted, is correctly identified 3. False Alarm no significant fault is present, but the protocol indicates the presence of a fault. 4. Misdiagnosis a significant fault is present, but the protocol misdiagnoses what type of fault it is. 5. Missed Detection a significant fault is present, but the protocol indicates that no fault is present. 1. A Method For Evaluating Diagnostic Protocols For Packaged Air Conditioning Equipment. 18
20 Diagnostics Analysis: Choosing a Fault Threshold Acceptable fault thresholds will vary, for our purposes: Fault recognized if Air-side efficiency degradation >10% Fault recognized if refrigerant overcharge >5% Overcharge impact on steady-state performance not significant, but reliability concerns due to low superheat and slugging of the compressor 19
21 Diagnostics Analysis Summary 45 Steady-State Test Scenarios Diagnostics FIR = -10% EER (or 5% overcharge) FDD Unit FDD Test Unit A FDD Test Unit B FDD Test Unit C Response # of Scenarios Correct Response? 24 Mis-diagnosis? 5 Correct Response? 23 Mis-diagnosis? 10 Correct Response? 29 Mis-diagnosis? 16 Multiple responses counted per scenario Single fault scenario where correct AND misdiagnosis responses occur Multiple fault scenario where one fault is diagnosed Three FDD technologies similar in performance Setting the right metrics & expectations 20
22 4. Conclusions Low charge and condenser airflow reduction demonstrated highest single-fault potential to reduce steady-state performance & efficiency, high charge isn t as pronounced, but yields reliability concerns Three FDD technologies similar in correct/misdiagnoses responses Approach for exploring FDD should continue to be improved to help make FDD value more transparent Field, lab, and simulation efforts should continue, and be cohesively leveraged to further the understanding of FDD and HVAC faults More info is needed regarding prevalence/incidence of HVAC faults and measured impacts in the field A consistent lab test method should be established What s Next? Validated simulation methods should be used to explore the overwhelming amount of possible scenarios 21
