RESEARCH 2010-2015 STRATEGIC THEMES & GOALS

GOAL #
1 Maximize the actual operational energy performance of buildings and facilities

Progress toward Advanced Energy Design Guide (AEDG) and cost-effective net-zero-energy (NZE) buildings

To reduce significantly the energy consumption for HVAC&R, water heating and lighting in existing homes.

Significantly advance our understanding of the impact of indoor environmental quality (IEQ) on work performance, health symptoms and perceived environmental quality in offices, providing a basis for improvements in ASHRAE standards, guidelines, HVAC&R designs and operation practices.

Support the development of ASHRAE energy standards and reduce effort required to demonstrate compliance

B. INDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY THEME

STRATEGIC GOALS:
B1. Make improvements in occupant health and comfort that yield 20% increase in productivity by 2015 B2. Provide optimal indoor environment for bldgs, vehicles, & facilities with respect to comfort, productivity, health, & safety B3. Understand better how contagious viruses are transmitted in indoor environments and develop countermeasures B4. Develop self-diagnostic inspection methods for HVAC systems that minimize impacts on comfort, health, & productivity 8 Facilitate use of natural and low global warming potential (GWP) synthetic refrigerants and seek methods to reduce refrigerant charge 7 Support development of tools, procedures and methods suitable for designing low energy buildings 6 Building Information Modeling (BIM) of energy efficient, high-performing buildings

C. TOOLS AND APPLICATIONS THEME

STRATEGIC GOALS:
C1. Develop more effective tools that will improve the productivity of the design process by 25% by 2015 C2. Develop dual path standards where paths are a) Prescriptive based, and b) Performance based C3. Develop methods to allow a designer to accurately model a bldg in virtual reality in no more than 1 week by 2010 C4. Develop a measurement-based rating system to establish the environmental performance of a bldg & its systems C5. Develop self-calibrating & low-cost sensor systems that measure control variables (comfort, health, productivity) C6. Establish design tools to improve the installed energy eff. of HVAC&R systems and components C7. Provide design guidance for bldgs. and systems to address the past and expected change in climatic conditions

Support the development of improved HVAC&R components ranging from residential through commercial to provide improved system efficiency , affordability, reliability and safety

10

Significantly increase the understanding of energy efficiency , environmental quality and the design of buildings in engineering and architectural education

11

Understand influences of HVAC&R on airborne pathogen transmission in public spaces and develop effective control strategies

D. EQUIPMENT, COMPONENTS & MATERIALS THEME

STRATEGIC GOALS:
D1. Establish techniques to improve energy eff. & reliability of HVAC&R components D2. Continue research into new alternative and natural refrigerants D3. Improve performance and reliability and minimize the environmental impacts of working fluids and materials D4. Advance ASHRAE's role in the safety and security of food distribution D5. Develop reliable, durable, and self-correcting sensor technology for monitoring IEQ, pollutants, energy conservation, & FDD D6. Move one or more non-traditional technologies to market readiness by 2010 D7. Develop techniques that reduce the installed energy use of HVAC&R system auxiliary equipment 50% by 2015

E. EDUCATION & OUTREACH THEME

STRATEGIC GOALS:
E1. Make the results of ASHRAE research available to the technical committee E2. Ensure that ASHRAE research has an international impact
