A Father and Son AEDGs Hit

Memphis Tradition
By Jeff Gatlin, P.E.,
Memphis Chapter president 2004 – 2005;
Region VII director and regional chair (DRC) 2011 – 2014
MEMPHIS—The 2013 – 14 Society year marks the first time
ASHRAE has had a president who is the son of a Presidential Member.
In the almost 70 years since the chartering of the Memphis Chapter,
there have been five pairs of parent-child chapter presidents:
• T.J. O’Brien, 1944 – 45, and Joe O’Brien, 1964 – 65
• Charlie Schaffler, 1969 – 70, and Brian Schaffler, 2002 – 03
• Kenneth Jack, 1974 – 75, and Evans Jack, 1998 – 99 and 2005 – 06
• Jerry Gatlin, 2001 – 02, and Jeff Gatlin, 2004 – 05
• Bob Colmer, 1971 – 72, and John Colmer, 2007 – 08
Not too surprisingly, all of these men have also been business
partners. The five firms represented by these men are among the
oldest continuously operating HVAC-related firms in the Memphis
area. O’Brien Engineering was founded in 1925; Gorham-Schaffler
in 1971; Engineered Mechanical Equipment in 1970; Thompson
Engineers in 1949; and Computer Environment in 1977.
T.J. O’Brien is remembered today by only a handful of the chap-
ter’s most senior members. In his era, O’Brien was considered the
regional expert in steam applications, and was a published author on
the subject. He was also a very conscientious person who took great

pains to make sure every project he worked on was of the
finest quality. Joe O’Brien continued his father’s tradition of
excellence and service to the industry and local community
even into retirement. He is best known by local members as
an expert in the area of cooling tower applications.
In 1969, Brian Schaffler was a newborn, and the 1969 – 70
chapter president, Charlie Schaffler, was one of the top sales
engineers in town. Shortly thereafter, Charlie would part-
ner with Cliff Gorham and spend more than three decades

Milestone
Since being introduced eight years ago
to encourage energy efficient design in a
range of building types, the Advanced En-
ergy Design Guide series from ASHRAE
and partnering organizations has hit the
half-million circulation mark.
More than 500,000 copies of the books
have been downloaded or purchased since
first published in 2005. In 2008, ASHRAE
began making the Advanced Energy Design
Guide (AEDG) series available for free
download at www.ashrae.org/freeaedg.
The books provide 30% and 50% energy
savings when compared with the minimum
code requirements of ANSI/ASHRAE/
IESNA Standard 90.1, Energy Standard
for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential
Buildings.
The series was developed by a commit-
tee representing a diverse group of energy
professionals drawn from ASHRAE, the
American Institute of Architects (AIA), the

Energy Audits Among New Courses Illuminating Engineering Society (IES),

Given the tremendous growth in empha-
sis on energy efficiency in existing build-
ings, private markets are looking for cost-
effective investments to make in buildings.
Energy efficiency represents an excellent
opportunity to provide great returns while
helping the environment, and improving
indoor environmental quality.
One way to learn what building improve-
ments are needed is to conduct an energy
audit. A new course from ASHRAE, part
of its ASHRAE Learning Institute fall on-
line course series, offers guidance on best
practices and other information relevant for
building owners, managers and government
entities.
“As we work to identify investment op-
portunities in commercial buildings, we
want to ensure that any recommendations
are cost effective, technically feasible and
result in significant energy savings,” said
Jim Kelsey, course instructor. “Providing
the best audits that we can will help move
the industry forward to net zero energy
buildings, so this course focuses on how to
actually conduct good audits.”
Kelsey notes that new industry research
shows revenue from energy-efficient HVAC
systems will grow from $17.2 billion in
2013 to $33.2 billion by 2020.
“That growth will not be possible without
independent energy auditors who can put

the United States Green Building Council
(USGBC) and the Department of Energy
(DOE).
ASHRAE Fellow Don Colliver has over-
seen the development of the series since it
began in 2003. He called for development
of the series during his year as president of
ASHRAE. During that time, he noted that
ASHRAE had found “that a single docu-
ment such as a code cannot effectively be
used for multiple objectives,” and proposed
simplification and increased usability by

Schaffler started his career in Denver as a
consulting engineer and ASHRAE member.
Brian was made an offer he couldn’t refuse,
and changed his career path to follow his
father into the family business. Immediately
upon his return to Memphis, Brian became
involved in the chapter and served as chap-
ter president in 2002 – 03.
Evans Jack still recounts stories of egg
tosses and other chapter-sponsored fam-
ily events from the days when he was a
young child and Ken was “going through
the chairs.” Kenneth Jack has served the
chapter for the years since his presidential
term in the unofficial position of Chapter
Memorials chair.
Ken is dedicated and unfailingly consci-
entious about publically commemorating
the life of every member who passes away
and keeping the membership informed of
those who are ill. He has recently assisted
the Region VII historian and director and
regional chair with the creation of Chapter
Memorials chair positions in all 13 of Re-
gion VII’s chapters. Evans Jack is dedicated
to the chapter leadership tradition that he
agreed to return to serve a second presiden-
tial term and then chair the 2008 Region VII
Chapters Regional Conference.

HVAC&R Research
Presents Inaugural
Best Paper Award
Bryan Rasmussen, Ph.D., received
ASHRAE’s first-ever HVAC&R Research
Best Paper Award at the 2013 Annual Con-
vention in Denver. The award was presented
by editor Reinhard Radermacher, Ph.D.,
Fellow ASHRAE. The award recognizes the
best refereed paper published in the volume
year of HVAC&R Research, the ASHRAE
research journal.
Rasmussen received the award for his
paper, “Dynamic Modeling for Vapor
Compression Systems, Part I: Literature
Review.” The two-part article provides an
introduction to dynamic modeling for va-
por compression systems. Part I provides
a detailed review of current literature in
this area. Both physics- and data-based ap-
proaches are discussed with their associated
advantages and limitations.
“The paper presents a very comprehen-
sive review with a critical assessment of the
various contributions to the field and distills
generalized ‘lessons learned’ for how to
best conduct and apply transient simula-
tion,” said Radermacher. “ It is considered
a great resource for anybody starting out
new in the field of dynamic system simu-
lation and/or somebody who has already
experience but would like to consolidate
and expand his/her understanding.”
Rasmussen is an associate professor, de-
partment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas

reviews the state of knowledge on the bal-
ance between environmental health and
energy efficiency in the pursuit of low en-
ergy buildings and covers range of topics:
residential and commercial buildings, new
construction and retrofit, active and passive
approaches, design and operation.
What better city than New York for
ASHRAE to host a Winter Conference in
January 2014 with a Technical Program
focused on buildings? The Conference has
a building-oriented theme with papers and
presentations related to building informa-
tion systems; environmental health; inter-
national design; HVAC&R applications
and systems; and, of course, tall building
performance.
The First International Conference on
Energy and Indoor Environment for Hot
Climates in February 2014 tackles energy
and indoor environmental quality issues in
humid and arid hot climates, providing a
forum for discussion of the latest research
and developments.
Building upon its 2012 High Perfor-
mance Buildings Conference and 2009 Net
Zero Conference, the High Performance
Buildings Conference in April 2014 seeks
to provide a unique opportunity for dialog
among attendees to facilitate understand-
ing of current energy saving efforts and to
share best practices for reducing building
energy use. The tracks include building
performance modeling, envelope strate-
gies, lighting/daylighting strategies, indoor
environmental quality strategies, building
occupant behavior, market value, new
building technologies and case studies and
lessons learned.
The design, construction and opera-
tion of energy efficient, high performance
buildings in developing economies have
been identified by the building industry and
policymakers as a key area where technol-
ogy, standards and investments are needed.
The Efficient, High Performance Buildings
for Developing Economies Conference in
April 2014 will address a number of themes
on this topic.
The 2014 ASHRAE Annual Conference
takes place in Seattle, Wash., June 2014.
The Conference addresses broad topics in
the application of technology to practice,
specific applications in ground source
heat pumps, operations and maintenance
and indoor environmental quality as well
as new reports on research taking place
worldwide.
Finally, the ASHRAE/IBPSA-USA
Building Simulation Conference taking
place in September 2014 merges the IBP-
SA-USA SimBuild and ASHRAE Energy
Modeling Conferences to focus on making
better decisions through the application of
simulation and modeling over the entire
building life cycle from the earliest concept
through operation and maintenance.

Variable air volume (VAV) systems with
direct digital controllers (DDC) have been
widely adopted in HVAC systems as they
can provide better energy efficiency and
occupant comfort. However, engineers do
not have the complete set of tools to de-
termine how low of a flow VAV boxes can
stably control. This low flow instability can
result in problems including under ventila-
tion, uneven control, reduced damper and
operator life, and energy waste. 1353-RP,
“Stability and Accuracy of VAV Box Con-
trol at Low Flows,” studied the source of
these VAV inaccuracy and instability to
better understand and design for the low
flow issue. Two papers on this project have
been submitted for future publication in
ASHRAE HVAC&R Research Journal.
1353-RP, “Stability and Accuracy of VAV
Box Control at Low Flows,” was sponsored
by TC 1.4, Control Theory and Application.
The principal investigator was Dr. Jin Wen
with Drexel University.
1493
1493-RP, “CFD Shootout Contest –
Predication of Duct Fitting Losses,” in-
volved a contest to determine duct fitting
loss coefficients using a commercially
available CFD modeling tool. The research
evaluated the feasibility and accuracy
of using CFD techniques to numerically
determine the loss coefficients for duct
f ittings. Results are presented in the
report. Technical papers on this project
were published in ASHRAE Transactions
(Vol. 119 (2), DE-13-030) and HVAC&R
Research Journal (Vol. 18(6), Dec. 2012)
are now available. 1493-RP, “CFD Shoot-
out Contest—Predication of Duct Fitting
Losses,” was sponsored by TC 5.2, Duct
Design. The principal investigators were
Dr. Ahmad Sleiti with University of North
Carolina-Charlotte and Dr. John Zhai with
the University of Colorado.
1522
1522-RP, “Establishment of Design
Procedures to Predict Room Airflow Re-
quirements in Partially Mixed Room Air
Distribution Systems,” developed a design
guideline and design tool with graphical
interface for Underfloor Air Distribution
(UFAD) systems to help predict thermal
stratification provided by these partially
mixed room air distribution systems. These
tools, described in the final report, can be
used to estimate supply airflow require-
ments of UFAD systems not currently
available in the UFAD Guide: Design,
Construction and Operation of Underfloor
Air Distribution Systems or the ASHRAE
Handbook. Engineers will be able to have a
quick and reasonable estimation of airflow
and room temperature using this design
tool. Two technical papers were published
in ASHRAE HVAC&R Research Journal
(Vol. 18(6), Dec. 2012) and are now avail-
able. 1522-RP, “Establishment of Design
Procedures to Predict Room Airflow
Requirements in Partially Mixed Room
Air Distribution Systems,” was sponsored
by TC 5.3, Room Air Distribution. The
principal investigator was Zheng Jiang
with Building Energy and Environmental
Engineering.
1583
1583-RP, “Assessment of Burning Ve-
locity Test Methods,” compared the two
burning velocity test methods referenced in
ASHRAE Standard 34 to determine if they
were appropriate for the mildly flammable
refrigerants classified as “subclass 2L.”
The two flammability tests (vertical-tube
& Schlieren) were originally developed for
highly flammable fuels and not intended to
be applied to mildly flammable refrigerants.
The research evaluated the precision and
accuracy of each test method and to seek
potential for test method simplification and
cost reductions without sacrificing quality.
The results of the research project and pro-
posed changes to the test methods for 2L
refrigerants are described in the final report.
Two technical papers on this project were
published in ASHRAE Transactions (Vol.
119 (2), DE-13-022, DE-13-023) and are
now available.
1583-RP, “Assessment of Burning Ve-
locity Test Methods,” was sponsored by
TC 3.1, Refrigerants and Secondary Cool-
ants. The principal investigator was Dr.
Kenji Takizawa with National Institute of
Advanced Industrial Science Technology.

ASHRAE Standard 15 includes a for-
mula for mechanical ventilation required to
exhaust refrigerant from a refrigeration ma-
chinery room in the event of a leak. Major
model building codes have adopted ventila-
tion requirements based on the equation in
this Standard which only considers the mass
of the refrigerant in the room. This equation
dates back to the 1930s and the engineering
basis is not clear. 1448-RP, “Ventilation
Requirements for Refrigerating Machinery
Rooms,” developed a new exhaust ventila-
tion calculation based on factors including
the size of the space, the refrigerant mass,
refrigerant properties, accident scenarios
and additional factors. A technical paper
on this project was published in ASHRAE
Transactions (Vol. 118 (2), SA-12-014)
and is now available. 1448-RP, “Ventilation
Requirements for Refrigerating Machinery
Rooms,” was sponsored by TC 4.3, Venti-
lation Requirements and Infiltration. The
principal investigator was Dr. Ron Petersen

Data to help designers accurately pre-
dicting the aerodynamic and acoustical
response of centrifugal fans with airfoil
(AF) and backward inclined (BI) blades to
common appurtenances and cabinet design
at the fan inlet is limited. To better under-
stand the real world performance of these
fans, 1216-RP, “Inlet Installation Effects on
Bi/Airfoil Centrifugal Fans, Air and Sound,”
studied the effect of various appurtenances
including various bearings, bearing sup-
ports, inlet guide vanes at various angular
positions, inlet boxes, inlet duct elbows at
various angles and distances from the inlet,
inlet duct contractions, walls perpendicular
to the fan axis at various distances from the
inlet, cabinet enclosures of various configu-
rations, flex duct connections, inlet and belt
guards and bird screens. The results will
serve as a guide to those designing or speci-
fying AF and BI fan systems for office and
commercial buildings. A technical paper
has been submitted for future publication
in ASHRAE Transactions. 1216-RP, “Inlet
Installation Effects on Bi/Airfoil Centrifu-
