Abstract : The HVAC Electronic Controller Development Program currently consists of eight specific tasks. Task Order 1.0, the Final Report which is contained in this communication, consisted of researching, assessing and evaluating potential electronic controller candidates which satisfied a Controller Specification generated for the US Army 18K BTUH Split-Package HVAC Units. Follow-On Tasks 2 through 8, which culminate in the delivery of an electronically-modified unit for a Troop Demonstration in Panama, and of a second unit for more rigorous performance evaluation at Ft.
