Relative to Field Measurement, Analyses, and Reporting Related to Building Energy Systems and Biomass Projects, sound progress continued on monitoring of 8 priority Class B sites. Attention is being given to initial data analysis, including basic comparison with other field work. Site documentation is being developed while working with the day-to-day instrumentation upgrades and data collection tasks. Major work has been completed on the SLR-Plus analysis tool, including near completion of the algorithm reference manual. Work is continuing on improved techniques for handling mass walls with particular attention to cooling load interactions. Analysis of performance results of domestic hot water monitoring program results and major reporting tasks are covered. Technology transfer efforts for industry and other special applications was continued to the extent feasible. This work was at a relatively low level of effort. Good progress is being made on Technical Services in Support of Appropriate Technology Program. Twenty-nine additional project files were received at ESG, bringing the total for review to 85. A large percentage of the initial review work has been completed. Seven selected site visits were made, and appropriate telephone monitoring continued. A presentation on project activities was made for a meeting involving state energy office personnel in the region involved.
