One Way Outdoor

This route is used for one way interpolation of manufacturer's capacities at outdoor design conditions.

Example:
My summer outdoor design is 92° dry-bulb and my indoor design is 63° wet-bulb
  • The manufacturer's published indoor data is equal to the indoor design conditions.
  • The manufacturer's published outdoor data is 85° and 95° dry-bulb, so interpolation is needed to calculate the capacity at 92° dry-bulb.

    JSON Input Example:

    • aboveDesign
      The manufacturer's capacity above the outdoor design conditions.
    • belowDesign
      The manufacturer's capacity below the outdoor design conditions.
    • designInfo
      The design information for the project.
    • houseLoad
      The house load for the project at design conditions.
    • manufacturerAdjustments
      Optional adjustments multipliers to the manufacturer's capacity.
    • systemType
      The system type for the interpolation.
