TC 8.8 is concerned
with refrigerant flow controls and accessories (excluding electronic
controls and control theory) for heating, ventilating, air
conditioning, and refrigerating uses. Our members offer their wide
knowledge on these topics in many different Society activities, through
various subcommittees.
The Committee
sponsors Research Projects, which are a way to further knowledge in our
field.
We provide valuable
assistance in the writing and revision of those chapters in the
Handbook for which we are responsible.
We often sponsor
one or more Seminars at the Society National Meetings. This is a good
opportunity to let others know what TC 8.8 is doing.
Finally, we are
also involved with the writing and revision of standards. In
particular, TC 8.8 is responsible for:
Standard 17 (MOT Capacity of
Thermostatic Refrigerant Expansion Valves)
Standard 28 (MOT Flow Capacity of
Refrigerant Capillary Tubes)
Standard 153 (MOT Capacity Rating
of Four Way Reversing Valves)
Standard 158.1 (MOT Capacity Rating
of Refrigerant Solenoid Valves)
Standard 158.2 (MOT Capacity Rating
of Refrigerant Pressure Regulating Valves)
Refrigeration Handbook Chapter 44
The subcommittee
meetings are where the action is, so don't miss them. They are a good
way for TC members to become more closely involved with the activities
of the committee.
