AAA Chairman’s Update (Provided by Peter Pallot on behalf of Guy Thompson) Peter Pallot presented the Chairman’s Update. The most significant issues covered were as follows: • The AAA board met for a board strategy day and meeting just last week to set the guidelines for AAA for the next 12 months ahead. This plan builds off the strategic plan that was set last year with the over 50 strategic goals achieved, a credit to Caroline Wilkie and her team in terms of the advocacy they have provided for the airports, regulators, government and industry. The feedback from government and stakeholders is that they have been very impressed with the quality and strength of the papers submitted on behalf of the AAA members. • Peter Pallot encouraged all members to continue to read the regular AAA e-news alerts and AAA papers that are available on the website. • This year the AAA appointed an education manager to assist the ongoing development of education and training, unfortunately this person recently resigned from the role, however a new person will be appointed soon to continue the training programs. • Looking forward into the next 12 months ahead the board has set 4 pillars to be built on, the strategies around those 4 pillars are: 1 1. Membership 2. People and performance 3. Advocacy 4. Industry Development (training) • The other pieces of work happening at the moment is the development of a couple of papers which Jared Feehely will give an update on later are The Wildlife Hazard Management at Airports paper and Consideration for Developing Disability Access at Airports. • Steven Goodwin advised the AAA had made over 70 submissions this year and have recently moved to new premises at Canberra Airport. • Rob Porter (AAA National Regional Airport director) acknowledged the great work done under Steve Goodwin’s leadership in the past few years and the transition to new leadership under Guy Thompson. There have been a number of practice notes produced by AAA this year and stressed to members that the quality of the information in the papers is only as good as the information received by members and encouraged all members to actively participate in the discussion papers. 3.

  • New Air Conditioning Design Temperatures for Queensland
    New air-conditioning design temperatures for Queensland, Australia by Eric Peterson¹, Nev Williams¹, Dale Gilbert¹, Klaus Bremhorst² ¹Thermal Comfort Initiative of Queensland Department of Public Works, Brisbane ²Professor of Mechanical Engineering, the University of Queensland, St Lucia Abstract : This paper presents results of a detailed analysis of meteorological data to determine air conditioning design temperatures dry bulb and wet bulb for hundreds of locations throughout Queensland, using the tenth-highest daily maximum observed per year. This is a modification of the AIRAH 1997 method that uses only 3PM records of temperature. In this paper we ask the reader to consider Australian Bureau of Meteorology official “climate summaries” as a benchmark upon which to compare various previously published comfort design temperatures, as well as the new design temperatures proposed in the present paper. We see some possible signals from climate change, but firstly we should apply all available historical data to establish outdoor design temperatures that will ensure that cooling plant are correctly sized in the near future. In a case- studies of Brisbane, we find that inner city temperatures are rising, that airport temperatures are not, and that suburban variability is substantially important.
