Life Cycle Cost Analysis • Engineering economics Option A Option B
VAV Example • One system • Multiple Spaces/Zones - VAV box for each space/zone • http://www.trane.com/commercial/library/vol242/v24b6.asp
VAV System Terms & Equations(you can find them in ASHRAE Standard 62) • Fraction of minimum outdoor air in space/zone supply air Xi = VOAi / VSAi • Critical space Space with maximumXi , Z=max(Xi) • Fraction of outdoor air in system supply air X = sum(VOA ) / sum(VSA) • Required Fraction of outdoor air: Y=X/(1+X-Z)
Other Issues Related to VAV • Fan control • Minimum supply air • Occupancy sensors

Project Commercial building • Zone orientation
Project • Cooling and heating load for each zone and whole building: • Fresh air requirement based on number of occupants: • To provide acceptable IAQ in the building, ventilation • system supply minimal amount of • fresh air is in all spaces (except plenums) • that produce 0.2 ACH.
