SLR-PLUS Version 1. 0 Reference Manual

OSTI ID:6980028
The SLR-PLUS program predicts the heating benefits and subsequent cooling loads of passive solar energy systems. The heating performance of the passive systems is based on the method presented in Volume 2 of the Passive Solar Design Handbook using the expanded performance correlations given in Volume 3 of the Passive Solar Design Handbook. The cooling loads of passive systems are estimated using the method developed by A. Lau and reported separately by ESG, Inc. This reference manual documents the details of the calculation procedures and individual algorithms used to determine the passive system heating and cooling loads. Although it is not possible to present every calculation in detail, sufficient information is provided to show the proper interaction between the various program input parameters. The accuracy of the calculation procedures and of the intermediate algorithms are given where possible. The source code listing is included as the appendix.
