The thermal factors critical for design of HVAC systems
AbstractThe major aim of a building is to provide a healthy and comfortable environment for the occupants. For this purpose, it is preferable if the influence of the building and installations on human comfort can be predicted already at the design stage. This paper discusses the problems in predicting the thermal environment. The requirements for a comfortable thermal environment based on existing standards are presented, followed by a discussion on different methods for predicting the relation between design of building, heating, and air-conditioning systems, and the thermal environment. This indicates that while surface, radiant, and air temperatures may be predicted in the design state, it is often not possible to predict air velocities and vertical air temperature gradients. Finally, the question of which factors are important in the design and development of new heating and air-conditioning systems are discussed.
