LABORATORY BUILDING HVAC SYSTEMS OPTIMIZATION.
Author(s) : NEUMAN V. A., GUVEN H. M.
Summary
THE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT BUILDING IS AN IMPORTANT BUILDING TYPE WITH HIGH DEMANDS FOR ENERGY EFFECTIVENESS AND SAFETY TO BE PROVIDED BY THE AIR-CONDITIONING SYSTEM. A SIMULATION OF DIFFERENT MECHANICAL SYSTEMS WAS MADE FOR A PROPOSED 18,580 M2 RESEARCH BUILDING LOCATED IN SAN DIEGO. THE SYSTEMS COMPARED ARE VARIABLE VOLUME WITH REHEAT, CONSTANT VOLUME WITH REHEAT, AUXILIARY AIR HOODS, TWO-FAN VARIABLE AIR VOLUME DUAL DUCT, AND CONSTANT VOLUME REHEAT WITH INDIVIDUAL FUME HOOD FANS. THE VARIABLE VOLUME SYSTEM WITH REHEAT WAS THE BEST OVERALL. THISALTERNATIVE IS SAFE, RELIABLE, AND ADAPTABLE. THE LIFE CYCLE COST OF THIS SYSTEM WAS $ 11 MILLION COMPARED TO THE WORST ALTERNATIVE LIFE CYCLE COST FOR CONSTANT VOLUME REHEAT WITH INDIVIDUAL FUME HOOD FANS OF $ 18 MILLION.
