The goal of GRI's Gas Appliance Technology Center (GATC) is to encourage the introduction of highly efficient, cost-effective, convenient gas appliances for residential and commercial gas users. The report covers activity at Battelle during 1988 in broad support tasks, residential space conditioning, and residential and commercial appliances. Broad support tasks included the G/A/S Newsletter; the GATC InfoBase; and technology transfer, workshops, and GATC coordination. Residential space conditioning tasks included developing a corrosion test methodology for gas-fired furnaces, testing nonmetallic materials for condensing heat exchangers, and assessing the technology for self-powered appliances. Tasks involving residential appliances included burner technology and applications, conceptual appliances, and gas lighting. These tasks are briefly described in the report, with references to publications that provide additional detail.
