Impurities in the chilled water system eventually deposit on evaporator tube surfaces, impeding heat transfer. Cataloged performance data includes a "fouling factor" that accounts forthis effect to more closely predict actual chiller performance. Research conducted by theAmerican Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE)reveals that the negative effect of fouling on the long-term performance of closed-loop chilled water systems is usually less than 0.00025 h·ft²·F/Btu. ARI Standard 550/ 590-1998 reduces the fouling-factor allowance from that value to the 0.00010h·ft²·F/Btu suggested by the study results.
Its Effect... Assessing a smaller fouling factor lets specifying engineers, owners, and manufacturers alike take credit for seemingly better heat transfer. With cataloged performance that more closely matches actual operation, specifying engineers can select chillers with greater precision-and owners purchase no more cooling capacity than they actually need. [The revised evaporator fouling factor has little effect on full-load efficiency, i.e. roughly 2 percent. As noted later,full-load efficiency remains an important criterion in many applications.-Editor]
Both are meaning the same definition. simply you put factor beyond the safety.
Actually, electric utilities object to a lagging power factor, but it does not really matter if its leading (capacitive) or lagging (inductive). The problem is that true vs apparent is less than unity - that's the definition of power factor - and this causes the indicated power (KW) to be less than the actual power (KVA) by a trigonometric relationship between KW and KVAR (kilo volt-amperes reactive). That energy is still required to be provided, and this requires facilities in excess of what is indicated by the power meter.
Displacement factor is equal to the power factor for linear loads with sinusoidal voltages and currents.pf = cos (angle1 - angle2)

Chm2/kj Refer to Uconeer - Unit Conversion for Engineers, or Hysys, Fouling Factor SI unit for fouling factor is m2K/kW Imperial unit is hr.ft.oF/Btu
Fouling factor is essentially used in determining the efficiency of the heat exchangers. Fouling factor is obtained from service (product) on either side of tubes and material of tubes. It basically represents corrosion of heat exchangers tubes which affects efficiency of heat transfer.
