AS 4552-2005 means Australian AS 4552-2005 'Gas fired water heaters for hot water supply and/or central heating' as in force immediately before it was superseded by AS/NZS 5263.1.2:2016.
AS/NZS 2535.1:2007 means Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 2535.1:2007 'Test methods for solar collectors — Part 1: Thermal performance of glazed liquid heating collectors including pressure drop'.
AS/NZS 2712:2007 means Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 2712:2007 'Solar and heat pump water heaters – Design and construction'.
AS/NZS 4234:2008 means Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 4234:2008 'Heated water systems – Calculation of energy consumption' as in force at the time it was made.
AS/NZS 4234:2008 Amendment 1 means Amendment No. 1 to the Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 4234:2008 'Heated water systems – Calculation of energy consumption' made in March 2011.
AS/NZS 4234:2008 Amendment 2 means Amendment No. 2 to the Australian and New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 4234:2008 'Heated water systems – Calculation of energy consumption' made in November 2011.
AS/NZS 5125.1:2010 means Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 5125.1:2010 'Heat pump water heaters – Performance assessment – Part 1: Air source heat pump water heaters' as in force immediately before it was superseded by AS/NZS 5125.1:2014.
ASHP means a solar water heater that is an air source heat pump water heater.
COP means coefficient of performance.
extension package TRNAUS means the TRNSYS Extensions for Solar Water Heating prepared in February 2014 by Graham L. Morrison, School of Mechanical Engineering, University of New South Wales.
Note:  The package could in December 2016 be viewed on Thermal Design Pty Ltd's website (http://users.tpg.com.au/t_design).
interpolation means the mathematical method of estimating a value between values already known or determined.
 large SWH means a solar water heater with a volumetric capacity over 700 litres, which is not an ASHP.
PV means photovoltaic.
small SWH (short for small solar water heater) means a solar water heater with a volumetric capacity up to and including 700 litres, which is not an ASHP.
STC means small-scale technology certificate.
SWH means solar water heater.
TRNSYS computer modelling package means versions 15 and 16 of the Transient Systems Simulation Program software package produced by the University of Wisconsin-Madison (Klein, S.A. et al, TRNSYS 16: A Transient System Simulation Program, Solar Energy Laboratory, University of Wisconsin, Madison, USA
