Five Basic Subsystems • Remarks: • Not all systems use all five loops • Such as DX (direct expansion) has no chilled water • Heat and humidification are part of the Airside • Temperatures are representative only
Classification of A/C Systems • Three generic types: • Centralised all air systems • Such as CAV, VAV, dual duct • Partially centralised air/water systems • Such as FCU, induction units, chilled beams/ceilings • Local systems • Such as window-type units, Split-type packages • Number of zones: single zone or multi-zone
Classification of A/C Systems • Classification proposed by Mr. S K Wang • Individual systems (no air duct), such as • Room air-conditioners • Package terminal air-conditioner (PTAC) systems • Space (Space-conditioning) systems, such as • Two-pipe or four-pipe fan coil systems • Often with separate outdoor ventilation air & heat recovery • Standard sizes 02, 03, 04, 06, 08, 12 (200-1200 cfm) • Water-source heat pumps (WSHP)
Classification of A/C Systems • Classification proposed by Mr. S K Wang • Packaged systems • Air is cooled directly by DX (direct expansion) coil and heated by direct-fired gas or electric heaters • Rooftop, split and indoor units • Single-zone CAV packaged systems • VAV packaged systems • VAV reheat packaged systems • Fan-powered VAV packaged systems • Common in USA/Canada
VAV reheat box VAV box Fan-powered VAV box
Classification of A/C Systems • Central systems • Single-zone CAV central systems • Single-zone CAV clean room systems • CAV zone-reheat central systems • VAV central systems • VAV reheat central systems • Fan-powered VAV central systems • Dual-duct VAV central systems • Dual-duct CAV central systems

Classification of A/C Systems • Other systems • VRV or VRF (variable refrigerant volume/flow) systems • Similar to multi-split systems • Displacement ventilation • Underfloor air conditioning • Ice-storage or chilled-water systems • Desiccant cooling systems • Chilled beams and ceilings
System Selection • Selection criteria • Temp., humidity, space pressure requirements • Capacity requirements • Redundancy • Spatial requirements • First cost • Operating cost • Maintenance cost • Reliability • Flexibility • Life cycle analysis
System Selection • System constraints • Performance limitations (temp., humidity, etc) • Available capacity • Available space (for plants & distribution) • Available utility source • Building architecture • Construction budget • Noise levels • Aesthetics and visible components
System Selection • Selection report to address • Design goal(s) • Criteria for selection • Important factors • Other goals • HVAC system selection matrix (see examples) • Score and grading for each design option
System Selection • System analysis & selection • Central and decentralised systems • Primary equipment • Refrigeration plant • Air and water delivery • Heating equipment (if any) • Space requirements • Equipment rooms (4-9% of floor area), e.g. for chillers • Fan rooms, vertical shafts • Equipment access
System Selection • Design considerations • Air distribution methods • Upward or downward air flow • Perforated ceiling • Side wall inlets • Use of jet nozzles • Ceiling plenums • Pipe systems & insulation • Heat rejection methods (air-cooled/water-cooled) • Controls (stand alone or BEMCS)
