This
report has been used with permission from Lennox Industries,
Inc. The testing was performed by the Lennox Research
and Development Center in Carrollton, Texas. This report
demonstrates the performance of coils coated with aluminum-impregnated
Blygold PoluAl as compared to similar uncoated coils.
The data shows that within the relevant range of operation,
coils coated with Blygold PoluAl closely mimic the performance
of uncoated coils.
Please
note: According to the engineer in charge of this testing,
the data for test coils Blygold #1 and Blygold #2 on both
the circuit and graph for Wet/Dry Pressure Drop were accidentally
switched. The performance curve for Blygold # 2 on the
graph corresponds to the data on the chart Blygold #1
and the performance curve for Blygold #1 on the graphs
corresponds to the data on the chart Blygold #2. There
is also a variation on the performance of the two Blygold
PoluAl coated coils that can be attributed to the minor
difference in fin density of the two coils.
