The map across its envelope

AHRI 540 / EN 12900 ten-coefficient polynomials in evaporating and condensing temperature, rated at 18.0 K superheat and 0.0 K subcooling; the solver corrects them to the operating superheat and subcooling. Envelope: the manufacturer's 6-sided polygon. The mass-flow coefficient set is published too, and the solver checks it against the capacity set.

Points on a 10 K grid inside the published envelope; the builder solves any point in it, and warns past it.

How the model reads against this maker's data

Compressor maps converted from the vendor's own rating database4 776 mapsevery basis median within 3.2 % of the nomenclature; the vendor's polynomial substituted exactly, never refitted

From the validation page; every row is held by a test.

Listed from published data; a listing's figures are the manufacturer's, the model that runs them is ours. Solver results never depend on who has claimed what.
