 WTO美国通报节能方案：房间空调试验规程
编号：G/TBT/N/USA/1625
拟议规则制定通知-美国能源部（DOE）提议修改房间空调器（“房间空调器”）的测试程序，以解决通过引用合并的行业标准的更新问题，提供变速室空调系统的测试，以更好地反映出与单速室空调系统相比，在较低的室外温度下，变速室空调系统的相对效率提高，并提供可提高测试程序的重复性、再现性和整体可读性的规范和修正。由于没有针对单速室空调系统提出的测试修改建议，能源部预计提出的修改不会影响这些模型的测量能量使用。对于变速室ACs，所提出的改变将提高这些模型测量能量使用的代表性。作为该提案的一部分，能源部宣布召开一次公开会议，收集有关其提案的评论和数据。
英文原文：
Notice of proposed rulemaking - The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) proposes to amend the test procedure for room air conditioners ("room ACs") to address updates to the industry standards that are incorporated by reference, provide for the testing of variable-speed room ACs to better reflect their relative efficiency gains at lower outdoor temperatures as compared to single-speed room ACs, and to provide specifications and minor corrections that would improve repeatability, reproducibility, and overall readability of the test procedure. Because there are no testing modifications proposed for single-speed room ACs, DOE expects that the proposed changes will not affect the measured energy use for these models. For variable-speed room ACs, the proposed changes will improve the representativeness of the measured energy use of these models. As part of this proposal, DOE is announcing a public meeting to collect comments and data on its proposal. （技术服务中心）
