# Convert from IEER to COP (no fan)
#
# @note IEER is a weighted-average efficiency metrics at different load percentages, operataional and environemental conditions
# @note IEER should be modeled by using performance curves that match a targeted efficiency values
# @note This method estimates what a reasonable full load rated EER would be for a targeted IEER value
# @note The regression used in this method is based on a survey of over 1,000 rated AHRI units with IEER ranging from 11.8 to 25.6
# @todo Implement methods to handle IEER modeling
#
# @param ieer [Double] Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER)
# @return [Double] Coefficient of Performance (COP)

New method to convert an IEER to a COP no fan. Note that this is just to estimate what would a reasonable full load gross COP would be for a specific IEER value. IEER-specific performance curves should then be applied. Copper could be used when it supports IEER rated equipment.
