Summary
Active chilled beams have been used for more than 20 years. The term “active chilled beam” became an oxymoron, with active beams being used for cooling and heating. Now, they are called “active beams” or simply “beams". Beams are gaining popularity in North America and are being designed with higher airflows to match increasing space loads.
