Increasing the ventilation effectiveness of multizone air-handling units through improved outside air duct design.

Author(s) : ROJESKI P. Jr, SINGH H.

Summary

The degree of mixing of outside air and return air in these units depends on the manner in which the outside air is ducted into the return air system. Tests conducted during the study demonstrate that there can be a 600% variation in outdoor air quantity from one zone to another. This can result in very uneven outside air distribution within the building.
