Residential Heat Pump Fault Detection and Diagnosis Research Data

Work by Purdue and NIST has shown that different system types behave differently when exposed to the same type of fault at the same intensity; therefore, a better understanding of fault effects on the performance of different systems is needed. The data referenced here contains measurements of the fault-free and fault performance of two different heat pumps; a 14 SEER heat pump and a 16 SEER air-conditioner. The data represents the cooling mode performance of the two systems with and without various faults imposed while operating at steady-state over a wide range of indoor and outdoor air temperatures and humidities.
