==CLTD/CLF/SCL cooling load calculation method==
The CLTD/CLF/SCL (cooling load temperature difference/cooling load factor/solar cooling load factor) [[Cooling load|cooling load]] calculation method was first introduced in the 1979 [[ASHRAE]] Cooling and Heating Load Manual (GRP-158) <ref name=SML>Spitler, J.D., F.C. McQuiston, K. Lindsey. 1993. The CLTD/SCL/CLF Cooling Load
Calculation Method, ASHRAE Transactions. 99(1): 183–192.</ref> The CLTD/CLF/SCL Method is regarded as a reasonably accurate approximation of the total heat gains through a building envelope for the purposes of sizing [[HVAC]] equipment. This method was developed as a simpler calculation alternative to difficult and unwieldy calculation methods such as the transfer function method and the [[Sol-air temperature]] method.<ref name=MS>McQuiston, F.C., and J.D. Spitler. 1992. Cooling and heating load calculation manual. Atlanta: ASHRAE</ref> Error when using the CLTD/CLF/SCL method tends to be less than twenty percent over and less than ten percent under.<ref name=SML/>
