FOREWORD

From January to October, 1978, the Residential Solar Data Center

(SDC) of the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) issued a bimonthly publication known as "Status Reports" (SDC Report No. 4*). These reports

contained sets of tables and charts designed to inform selected participants (primarily the Department of Housing and Urban Development and its

contractors) in the Residential Solar Heating and Cooling Demonstration

Program about the volume of data stored in the solar data base maintained by the SDC, and about the types of computer printouts that were

available. The availability of computer printouts to a larger, more

varied group of potential users was announced at the Department of Energy's Solar Heating and Cooling Systems Operational Results Conference

held in Colorado Springs, Colorado, November 28 - December 1, 1978.

The present document, "Residential Solar Data Center Data Resources

and Reports," is published in an effort to enhance comprehension of the

computer printouts of Residential Solar Demonstration Program data by

this more general audience. Included is a summary of the history and

background of the SDC and the Demonstration Program, an explanation of

grant cycles and data collection procedures, and a full description of

the files which comprise the solar data base.

This publication will be updated as needed by the SDC. For information on the availability of updated material, contact the Franklin

Research Center:

1. BACKGROUND

In 1974, Congress passed the Solar Heating and Cooling Demonstration Act to establish a program of research, development and demonstration directed towards reducing the nation's dependence upon

non-renewable resources through stimulating the development and use of

solar energy systems. The Department of Energy (DOE) is responsible

for the management of the total Federal Solar Energy Research, Development and Demonstration Program. DOE is assisted in the demonstration portion of the program by the Department of Housing and

Urban Development (HUD) , the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) and

other Federal agencies and private contractors.

The Demonstration Program is divided into two parts: a Residential Program for which HUD has prime responsibility; and a Commercial Program, directed by DOE. In both programs, funds are

allocated for new and retrofit building projects in a variety of

climatic and geographic regions. These projects are designed to

demonstrate the economic viability of the use of solar energy systems

for heating and cooling.

A principal objective of the Demonstration Program is to provide

data on the technical aspects of solar energy systems and on their

acceptance by the building industry, regulatory agencies and the consumer. Data are collected in two ways: manually [non- instrumented

data) anc electronically ( instrumented data) .

Non- instrumented data, technical and non-technical , are collected

on questionna.es or take-off forms for entry into the computer.

1
Included are data describing the demonstration projects and their solar

energy systems as well as data concerning the progress of the grant

from construction through marketing, market acceptance, etc.

Instrumented technical data are derived principally from sensors

installed when construction activities are completed at selected

project sites. These data, when analyzed, define the thermal performance of the solar energy systems and the climatic conditions

affecting that performance.

DOE contractors are responsible for the collection of both instrumented and non-instrumented data in the commercial program and for

the collection of instrumented data only in the residential program.*

The responsibility for collection of non-instrumented data in the

residential program resides with HUD. Figure 1 illustrates the

assignment of data collection, evaluation and dissemination responsibilities in the Solar Demonstration Program. The Residential Solar

Data Center (as shown in Figure 1) is the entity responsible for

storage, retrieval and dissemination of non-instrumented solar data

in the Residential Program.

In implementing the Residential Demonstration Program, HUD has

established four main objectives. They are:

1. Residential demonstrations of solar equipment;

2. Development of performance criteria and certification

standards for solar equipment;

See Appendix for a list of reports on instrumented residential data.

2
3. Encouragement of the acceptance and use of solar

technology by the housing industry and the general

public; and

4. Dissemination of demonstration and market development

data.

In order to accomplish these objectives, HUD is funding demonstration projects (by awarding grants) in cycles initiated approxi-

"Jc mately every nine to twelve months. Data collected from funded

projects in each cycle enable HUD and its contractors to apply increased awareness of solar technology, marketplace dynamics and data

collection techniques towards enhancing the effectiveness of projects

in succeeding cycles.

In addition, HUD, in cooperation with DOE, has established a center* national clearinghouse and reference **for the effective dissemination of information regarding solar energy systems - technical and

non-technical, domestic and foreign, residential and commercial. The

Center functions as a major reference resource for all elements of

the solar community, as well as for the general public. The latest

demonstration information is made available by the Center through

publications, conferences and exhibits and through its toll-free

telephone and national mailing response mechanism.

* For a count of grants per cycle, see Section 7, page 49.

2. THE RESIDENTIAL SOLAR DATA CENTER

In the Fall of 1976, the design for a solar data center was

initiated by the Institute for Computer Sciences and Technology (ICST)

at the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) . A series of publications

("ICST Planning Reports 1-5 ) developed the framework for what was

to become the Residential Solar Data Center (SDC)

.

In March, 1977, the SDC became operational at NBS. The SDC is

responsible for the establishment and operation of a data base containing non-instrumented solar data collected by participants in the

Residential Solar Demonstration Program which is managed by the

Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)

.

Currently, the principal data collection contractor for HUD in

the Demonstration Program is the Boeing Aerospace Corporation (BAC)

which has subcontracted with the American Institute of Architects/

Research Corporation (AIA/RC) ; Dubin, Bloome Associates (DBA) ; and

the Real Estate Research Corporation (RERC) . These contractors collect and forward data to the SDC which maintains a solar data base

consisting of the following files:

1. Grant File : This file contains basic project and system

information for each application funded by HUD. These

data are derived from grant applications submitted to HUD

and updated with information from periodic field reports.

2. Grantee Report File : Data in this file are based upon

reports submitted by each grantee to BAC describing

*See Section 8.

5
the progress of his grant from design and award of

construction financing through actual construction,

sale and permanent financing. The grantee's perceotions of the ease or difficulty in obtaining construction or permanent financing and building and zoning

approval, as well as construction, equipment or installation problems are included.

3. Technical Description File : This file contains basic

system design and predicted performance data collected

by DBA from a large number of selected non-instrumented

systems. A more detailed set of data is collected by

AIA/RC for those systems which are to be instrumented.

4. Technical Concerns File : Contained in this file are

data on problems found during the design, construction

or operational phase which were recorded in field

activity reports submitted by DBA and BAC field representatives. It also contains data on problems found

after construction, as recorded by the grantee.

5. Marketing Survey File : This file contains extensive

survey questionnaire results collected by RERC from

selected builders, lenders, homebuyers, code officials,

utility companies and other market participants. The

data sample includes representatives of those who

chose to build, lend or buy a funded solar house and

"comparatives" who did not become involved. Data are

6
also collected after the sale to gauge builder and consumer reactions over a period of time.

6. Utility Consumption File : This file contains information on auxiliary or "back-up" fuel consumed for

selected projects. The data are collected from

utility companies (with purchaser agreement) . "Comparative" data are also collected.

The following is a brief description of the services provided

by the SDC: , 0 t ..

. noli if be

Receipt and Maintenance of Data

The SDC provides a central location for the receipt, storage,

processing and reduction of non-instrumented, residential solar data

collected from the Solar Demonstration Program. Data are collected

and transcribed onto computer forms by HUD and its contractors. These

forms are sent to the SDC and from there to NBS contractors who key

the information into machine-readable formats. The incoming data are

then edited, catalogued, reformatted, translated and validated. These

activities provide the necessary control and prepare the data for use

in the production of appropriate reports

.

Production of Printed Reports

A major function of the SDC is the production of reports ranging

from complete listings of all data in a file to more detailed "custom"

computer reports. Custom reports are produced to meet specific user

requirements and may print only selected data from a file and may

*A more complete description of data files and specific data

elements is contained in Section 5, page 27.

7
re-sort the selected data into a new sequence. New report requirements

are defined by HUD or its contractors in the Residential Demonstration

Program. These reports are generated whenever a data file is updated.*

Provision of Online Access to the Data

Some data files can be accessed by authorized users (as determined by HUD) via a computer terminal. Access is made possible through

the use of query packages. These packages are described in Section 6.

Ad Hoc and Other Continuing Functions

In addition to the operation and maintenance of the data base,

the SDC also provides the following user services:

1. technical expertise to answer user questions

and to provide assistance;

2. development of computer programs in response to

users' special needs;

3. user training in online access to the data base

and in procedures for transcription and validation of data;

4. documentation of available data, reports and

online access techniques;

5. interface with data collectors and users;

6. planning for archiving of files, documentation

and programs;

See Table 1, Section 3, pages 11-14, for a list of reports

available through SDC.

4. SAMPLE PAGES OF REPORTS

This section contains copies of actual pages from representative

reports listed in Section 3. In most cases only one page is reproduced from each report. Since these examples may contain out-of-date

or out-of-context data, they should be viewed as "samples" only. The

title of the report and the date it was produced are shown on the top

line of the page. The report identification number and sequential

page number are shown in the upper left corner. An explanation of

"not applicable" codes is given below. Other codes may be directly

translatable since mnemonics were used whenever possible; however, the

code dictionary associated with each report is frequently required.

Codes are more fully explained when the complete report is distributed.

"Not Applicable" Codes

Missing data in these reports are usually indicated by one of

four "not applicable" codes. The four codes and their translations

are shown below. When space is available in the report, the code is

translated and only the interpretation is printed.

TECHNICAL CONCERNS FILE ELEMENTS

Data for this file are generated when a technical representative

makes contact with a solar project where technical concerns are being

experienced. These technical concerns range from non-significant concerns (such as delivery delays due to weather) to significant concerns

(such as outgassing due to faulty material selection) . Selected reports documenting technical concerns during design, construction or

operational phase of the project are transcribed and put onto the

computer.

MARKETING SURVEY FILE ELEMENTS

This file contains survey research data from builders, lenders,

zoning officials, solar homebuyers and other market participants. Data

are non-technical and designed to provide marketplace and attitudinal

information as well as perceptions of constraints on the entry of solar

energy to the residential housing market.

The data are obtained using one or a combination of 26 sets of interview questionnaires. Most collected information is used in several

studies and analyses, including studies of building code regulations,

economic performance modeling, financial feasibility, consumer attitides, legal issues and land use.

6. INTERACTIVE ACCESS TO SOLAR DATA

Some users of the data which is collected in the Residential Solar

Heating and Cooling Demonstration Program (those specifically authorized

by HUD to do so) may directly access files in the solar data base

through remotely situated computer terminals which are tied to the main

computer at the National Bureau of Standards by telephone lines. The

Solar Data Center (SDC) has provided three separate query packages

which facilitate interactive (or "online") access to the files.

Through the use of these packages, terminal operators interact conversationally with the conputer to access and manipulate data and to

designate output format quickly and efficiently.

Figure 2 is an illustration of the solar data base indicating the

data files by name and the query packages available for accessing each

of them online. The following is a description of available query

packages

MI RADS

The Marshall Information Retrieval and Display System

is an online storage and retrieval system generally used

for retrieval of non-technical data, such as Grant File and

Grantee File data. Under MIRADS, in response to the issuance

of four basic commands: QUERY, SORT, COMPUTE and PRINT; the

system searches the data base (based on the selection criteria in the query command) , sorts and retrieves selected

data as specified, performs any computations requested, and

prints the results.

43
44
The Query Language Processor package features an

"English-like" series of commands executed interactively

through a terminal. It is used primarily to provide online

retrieval of technical data located in the Technical Description and Technical Concerns data files. Using QLP, terminal

operators may look at specific elements of information,

count the number of times a specified item exists in the data

base, and print out the items in either horizontal or columnar output format and in the desired report sequence.

SRG

The £olar Report Generator is a generalized online query

and report generating package which is being developed by

the SDC staff to meet the needs of the primary users (HUD and

its contractors) of the SDC to access and utilize data across

files. Initially, the SRG was implemented in a pilot mode to

demonstrate the ability to do basic searches across two files.

Subsequent versions demonstrate increased sophistication such

as the capability to access across all files, to permit

queries based on multiple selection criteria, and to generate

reports with varying formats. The SRG uses a table-driven

approach which permits the user to think in terms of grouping data elements regardless of the data files in which they

are contained. To the user, the data base is one logical

45
SRG (Continued)

"master file." The package includes a data dictionary and

a directory to all files.

The SRG will eventually be used to produce batch reports,

replacing the present system which requires a separate software package operating on a single file for each report

produced. Currently, the SRG is being enhanced to make it

a more versatile and flexible accessing tool. The nature

and number of enhancements to the SRG will be based upon the

requirements of the users of the data base files. In its

final form, the Solar Report Generator will have most of the

capabilities of both QLP and MIRADS with the added flexibility of "master file" access to the data.

46
7. AMOUNT OF DATA ON THE COMPUTER

The figures in this section show the amount of data currently

stored in the computer. Figure three indicates the growth in the

size of the data base to date, and the anticipated increase over the

next few years.

Figures four through nine indicate by cycle the extent to which

computerization of data has been accomplished.

Even though a file may be shown to be "complete," it is important to note that the information contained therein is not

necessarily static. Updating information is entered whenever required to accurately reflect the dynamic state of the projects.

MARKETING SURVEY FILE

100% 100%

figure 8

Data are collected and put into the Marketing Survey File for selected residential

units (i.e_. a house or apartment) of a HUD funded project. Marketing survey data

are collected from various participants in the solar energy market: the builder,

resident, lender, zoning official, etc. The surveys can occur over a period of

time. For example, one survey on the builder during the construction phase,

another on the resident after the unit is sold and another to gather "follow up"

data on the resident one year later. Therefore, the completeness of data

collection for one cycle may not accurately reflect the completeness of data

collection for a particular unit which was funded during that cycle.

When data collection is complete for this file, data will be collected and put

into the Marketing Survey File for the following number of grants and units:

For cycle 1, 34 grants or 64 units.

For cycle 2, 49 grants or 142 units.

For cycle 3, 99 grants or 207 units.

For cycle 4, 19 grants or 46 units.

Data are collected and put into the Utility Consumption File for selected solar

systems of residential units (i.e. a house or apartment). The data are obtained

from utility bills and indicate how much fuel (gas, electricity, etc.) is used

other than solar. Utility bills must accumulate over a period of time before

meaningful analysis can be done. Therefore, the completeness of data collection

for one cycle may not accurately reflect the completeness of data collection for

a particular system.

When data collection is complete for this file, data will be extracted and put

into the Utility Consumption File for the following number of grants and systems:

For cycle 1, 32 grants or 59 systems.

For cycle 2, 45 grants or 99 systems.

For cycle 3, 72 grants or 123 systems.

For cycle 4, 16 grants or 35 systems.

For cycle 4A, 24 grants or 63 systems.

For all cycles, 189 grants or 379 systems.
