Technical Report · Tue Mar 30 00:00:00 EST 1982

OSTI ID:5202936

A partial acceptance test was conducted on the El Toro Library Solar Energy System, and the detailed results of the various mode acceptance tests are given. All the modes tested function as designed. Collector array efficiencies were calculated at approximately 40%. Chiller COP was estimated at .50, with chiller loop flow rates approximately 85 to 90% of design flow. The acceptance test included visual inspection, preoperational testing and procedure verification, operational mode checkout, and performance testing. (LEW)
