Experimental and analytical evaluation of VAV air-conditioning system in an office building.

Author(s) : WANG S., BURNETT J.

Summary

The flow-pressure characteristics of the Air Handling Unit (AHU)/Variable Air Volume (VAV) air-conditioning system in an open-plan office building is assessed by site experiments under various conditions. The effects of VAV supply pressure setting, return fan pressure setting and damper operation on energy consumption, fresh air intake and ex-infiltration flow rate are evaluated analytically on the basis of the VAV/AHU system and component characteristics.
