Optimizing rooftop unit performance with part-load control strategies.
Author(s) : WOODCOCK R.
Type of article: Article
Summary
The specifying engineer should break with tradition and examine not just the maximum needs of the building, but the part-load capabilities that will be required more often than not. Sufficient capacity stages will help prevent excessive compressor cycling and more accurately maintain the desired leaving air temperature. With vav systems, the most common forms of capacity staging are compressor cycling and compressor cylinder unloading.
