Intelligent HVAC systems in hospitals
Increasing interest has been expressed towards intelligent heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems in hospital environments. This article presents a literature review of intelligent HVAC systems used in hospitals. First, we discuss the current state of HVAC systems and common ventilation issues regarding modern hospitals. Second, we describe hospital airflow modelling using computational fluid dynamics. We then define ‘intelligent HVAC systems’ and address challenges concerning their design and implementation. Lastly, possibilities for HVAC system optimization and energy conservation are presented.
