  1. MECH 8250Ventilation Lecture: February 2nd Winter 2014

  2. Topics Covered by this Course • Building Ventilation Systems • BCBC 2012 • ASHRAE 62.1

  3. Natural Ventilation

  4. Mechanical Ventilation

  5. Mechanical Ventilation Dedicated Outdoor Air Systems (DOAS)

  6. Ventilation Standards BCBC 2012 3.3.5.7: Ventilation of Vestibules 6.2.2.3: For Storage Garage 9.32: Ventilation for Single Dwelling Unit ASHRAE Standard 62 • 62.1: Non-Residential • 62.2: Residential (BCBC 2012 takes over) LEED (Leadership in Environment & Energy Design) - 2004

  7. VENTILATION – BCBC 2012 BCBC 3.3.5.7: Natural Ventilation: Unobstructed area of 0.1m2 for each door that opens into the vestibule BUT not less than 0.4m2 Mechanical Ventilation: 14m3/hr.m2 (0.82 cfm/ft2) for vestibule area

  8. BCBC 3.3.5.7 – Ventilation of Vestibules Natural Ventilation: Unobstructed area of 0.1m2 for each door that opens into the vestibule BUT not less than 0.4m2 Mechanical Ventilation: Supply 14m3/hr.m2 (0.82 cfm/ft2) for vestibule area

  9. BCBC 6.2.2.3 – For Storage Garage Mechanical Ventilation: • Continuous supply of ventilation air @ 14m3/hr.m2 (0.76 cfm/ft2) of the floor area. • When CO and NO2 is detected at higher levels, this ventilation air is increased. 6ACH.

  10. VENTILATION – BCBC 2012 BCBC 9.32.2: Ventilation during Non-Heating Season 9.32.2.2: Natural Ventilation Table 9.32.3.3 Open areas for various rooms 9.32.2.1: Mechanical Ventilation 0.5 ACH for air-conditioning spaces 1.0 ACH for NON air-conditioning spaces

  11. VENTILATION – BCBC 2012 BCBC 9.32.3: Ventilation during Heating Season 9.32.3.3: Principal Ventilation Exhaust Fan OR Dedicated Central Ventilation System

  12. VENTILATION – BCBC 2012 Changes implemented on December 19 2014: • The End of Exhaust-Only Ventilation Systems. Exhaust-only ventilation systems are being replaced by a system that includes both exhaust and supply. • Principal Ventilation System Requirements : Continuous Operation (24 hours a day) • The same Principal Exhaust Fan can be used for Washroom or Kitchen, but when the room is being used, the exhaust will increase to satisfy the exhaust requirements

  13. VENTILATION – BCBC 2012 Ventilation during Heating Season 9.32.3.3: Dedicated Central ventilation System with minimum Ventilation rate

  14. Principal Ventilation System Exhaust Fan A SFD unit shall include: A principal ventilation system including supply (1) and continuous exhaust (2). The bathroom fan (2) provides continuous exhaust as the principal ventilation exhaust fan and intermittent, on command exhaust at a higher air flow rate as a bathroom fan. The kitchen exhaust is provided by a dedicated kitchen exhaust fan (3). The heated crawl space is provided with a dedicated fan (4) and at least one passive grille to the rest of the house (5).

  15. Ducted forced-air furnace The furnace ducting provides supply air to required areas of the dwelling unit and the bathroom fan is designated as the principal ventilation exhaust fan, operating continuously as the principal ventilation exhaust fan (see 9.32.3.5.) and intermittently as a bathroom fan (see 9.32.3.6.).

  16. Use of HRV in Ducted Furnace 9.32.3.4.(3) Using a ducted forced-air furnace in the principal ventilation system. The HRV may act as the principal ventilation exhaust fan and may exhaust from more than one location in the dwelling unit. In this case, the bathroom and kitchen fans are not part of the principal ventilation system.

  17. Topics Covered by this Course • General requirements • LEED Points • Ventilation requirements • Construction and O/M requirements • Energy Efficiency Options • Possible Coming Changes • Questions

  18. ASHRAE – LEED Points • EQ Prerequisite 1: Minimum IAQ • EQ Prerequisite 2: Environmental Tobacco Smoke (ETS) Control • EQ Credit 1: Outdoor Air Delivery Monitoring for CO2 • EQ Credit 2: Increased Ventilation – at least 30% more than ASHRAE 62.1 2004 • EQ Credit 3.1: Construction IAQ Management during Construction • EQ Credit: Construction IAQ Plan before occupancy

  19. 1. Purpose 1.1 The purpose of this standard specify minimum ventilation ratesand other measures intended to provide indoor air quality that is acceptable to human occupants and that minimizes adverse health effects. 1.2 This standard is intended for regulatory application to newbuildings, additions to existing buildings, and those changes to existing buildings that are identified in the body of the standard. 1.3 This standard is intended to be used to guidethe improvement of indoor air quality in existing buildings.

  20. 2. Scope 2.1 All spaces intended for human occupancy excluding low-rise residential (62.2) 2.2 Defines requirements for ventilation, air-cleaning design, commissioning, installation and O&M 2.3 Additional requirements and other standards may apply (labs, healthcare, industrial, etc.) 2.4 May be applied to both new and existing buildings, not intended to be used retroactively 2.5 Does not prescribe specific ventilation rates for smoking spaces 2.6 Ventilation requirements based on chemical, physical, & biological contaminants 2.7 Consideration or control of thermal comfort is not included 2.8 In addition to ventilation, the standard contains requirements related to certain sources

  21. 2. Scope 2.9 Acceptable IAQ may not be achieved in all buildings meeting these requirements because of: • Diversity of sources and contaminants • Air temperature, humidity, noise, lighting, and psychological/social factors • Varied susceptibility in the occupants • Introduction of outdoor contaminants

  22. 2. DEFINITIONS Acceptable indoor air quality: Air in which there are no known contaminants at harmful concentrations as determined by cognizant authorities and with which a substantial majority (80% or more) of the people exposed do not express dissatisfaction. Occupiablespace: an enclosed space intended for human activities, excluding those spaces intended primarily for other purposes, such as storage rooms and equipment rooms, that are only occupied occasionally and for short periods of time.

  26. VENTILATION RATE PROCEDURE

  27. VENTILATION RATE PROCEDURE

  28. Ventilation Air (OA) Calculation Step 1 Vbz= RpPz + RaAz • Vbz= Breathing Zone OA • Rp= Outdoor Air Rate per person • Pz= Zone Population • Ra= Outdoor Air Rate per unit area • Az= Zone Floor Area (Net occupiable)

  29. Ventilation Air (OA) Calculation Step 2 Voz=Vbz/Ez • Voz = Ventilation Outdoor Airflow in the zone • Vbz= Breathing Zone Outdoor Airflow • Ez= Effectiveness of the air distribution

  39. VENTILATION – ASHRAE 62.1 5.1 Natural Ventilation Determine the maximum W to qualify for natural ventilation.Within 25’ of the opening. Therefore the W will be 10’ + 25’ = 35’ Minimum size of each operable window.Opening Size: 4% minimum of the floor areaFloor area: 35’ x 40’ = 1,400 ft2Opening Area = 56ft2Window area: 18.7ft2 (three) What needs to be changed for the 10’x10’ room to allow natural ventilation?The door (>8.5ft high and 3ft wide) must be removed to make the opening permanently unobstructed so that the interior office can have natural ventilation.Greater of the two:8% of floor area = 112 ft2 OR 25ft2 What if the operable windows are changed with a louver with 0.5 free area.56ft2 x 0.5 = 112ft2
