ASHRAE 2013 Annual Conference Call for Papers
ATLANTA – ASHRAE has announced a call for papers for its
2013 Annual Conference in Denver, Colo., June 22-26.
The conference seeks papers on current research
worldwide; core HVAC&R applications and systems; and, featured for this
conference, Integrated Project Design, Energy Modeling and Building Efficiency
Performance.
The Research track seeks papers that report on all
aspects pertaining to HVAC&R and attempts to bring together researchers to
present and discuss the latest research.
The Research track has an emphasis on Renewable Energy Research and its
role in the industry’s movement toward a clean energy economy. Papers describing ASHRAE-related research are
encouraged as well as papers from societies and associations worldwide.
As with past ASHRAE conferences, the Denver Conference
seeks papers addressing the core HVAC&R Systems and Equipment, and
Fundamentals and Applications advances and practices.
The Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) track addresses the
evolving method of managing a design project from conceptual design through to
the operation and maintenance phase, based on the concept of shared risk/profit
and teamwork. Papers in this track will
focus on success and lessons learned with IPD, as well as individual roles in
IPD collaboration.
The Building Energy Modeling vs. Measurement &
Verification track seeks papers discussing the accuracy of building energy
modeling programs compared to utility usage in the actual building after one to
two years of occupancy, investigates trends in building modeling; and/or the
realities of construction and O&M, such as systemic construction issues
that lead to long term non-performance and training staff to operate a building
as it was designed to perform.
The Mile-High Efficiency & Equipment Track seeks papers
highlighting new breakthroughs in equipment and building systems that
contribute to a building’s overall high-efficiency performance.
ASHRAE offers two types of paper submissions:
• Conference
Paper Abstracts due Sept. 24, 2012. Upon
acceptance, papers will be due January 14, 2013. These “final” papers undergo a single-blind
review, are submitted as a PDF and have an eight single-spaced page maximum
length.
• Full
Technical Papers due Sept. 24, 2012.
Papers submitted for review must be both technically accurate and
clearly written. These papers undergo a rigorous double-blind review and can be
a maximum of 30 double-spaced pages.
To submit a conference paper abstract or a technical
paper and for more information about the tracks, go to www.ashrae.org/Denver.
