How the model reads against this maker's data
| Coaxial exchanger model, one conductance from one rated point, against a smaller maker's heat-pump chart | 102 over 13 sizes | every rating reproduced exactly; the other approaches read −3.0 to +3.1 % of the printed duty (mean +0.7 %, RMS 1.9 %), the suction within 0.6 °F. The miss has one shape on every size, because every row of the chart is one curve times a size factor: the chart's own conductance is 4–5 % above the rating's at a 6 °F approach, 3 % below it at 10–11 °F and back at 20 °F — not the steady rise with flow a water film alone would give — and a fixed conductance is held to it approach by approach |
From the validation page; every row is held by a test.
