With these design con ditions: space sen s ible heat g ain = 40,00 0 Btu/hr [11,72 4 W] space d ry-bulb (DB) te mperature = 75 °F [23.

However , because this type of syst em can res pond to the d emands of o nly one thermostat, it can serve only tho se building spaces with similar cooling requirem ents. If a bu ilding has m any space s with div e rse cooling needs, each must be serv ed by i ts own sy ste m.
TRG-TR C0 14-EN 5 peri od one What Is V ariable Air V olume? note s The termina l reheat system u ses a centra l air han dler and co oling coil to deliver cool primary a ir to all the spaces. Ea ch space has its own heat ing coil to temper the air t o satisfy the space loa d.

TRG-TR C0 14-EN 7 peri od one What Is V ariable Air V olume? note s However , at part load, th e V A V system pro duces a balance by m odulating the volume of c onstant 55 °F [12.8°C] su pply air . In this ex ample, the a ir volume required to bala nce the lesser 20,00 0 Btu/hr [5,862 W] s pace sen sible load is: That is, 9 20 cfm [0.

TRG-TR C0 14-EN 9 peri od one What Is V ariable Air V olume? note s Contrasting th e three systems di scussed in this exa mple, the si mple, constant- volume, v ariable-tempera ture system consumes const ant fan energy while providing refrige ration ene rgy savings a t part load.

We will d iscus s three : n V ariabl e thermal load profiles in the spac es. n The need for multiple , independen tly-controlled spaces.
TRG-TR C0 14-EN 11 peri od one What Is V ariable Air V olume? note s Another feat ure of the V A V system is the ability to efficiently sa tisfy the comfort requirements of many diffe rent spaces withi n the building .
12 TRG-TRC01 4-EN note s Next, w e will examine the individual comp onents th at compose a V A V system. A simple V A V system in cludes the followin g: n Central air ha ndler wit h a variable-v olume.
TRG-TR C0 14-EN 13 period two Components of a V A V System note s V A V T erminal Un its A V A V terminal unit is a shee t-metal ass embly insta lled upstrea m of its respectiv e space diffus ers.
14 TRG-TRC01 4-EN note s period two Components of a V A V System The simpl est of all V A V terminal units is the single-duct, cooling-only terminal unit. It consis ts of an airflow modul ation device with control s package d in a she et-metal enc losure.
TRG-TR C0 14-EN 15 period two Components of a V A V System note s determined by the design cooling loa d of the space and the minimum settin g is normally dete rmined by the spac e ventilation requ irement or minimum airfl ow for proper diffus er selection.
16 TRG-TRC01 4-EN note s period two Components of a V A V System VAV r e h e a t terminal units provide sup ply-air tempering or space heating by reheating th e cool primary air . This is accomp lished by adding an electric, or hot-water , heating coil to the discharg e of a cooli ng-only unit.
TRG-TR C0 14-EN 17 period two Components of a V A V System note s During the heating mode, the primary airflow mu st often be greater than the minimum s etting of the un it for the cooli ng mode.
18 TRG-TRC01 4-EN note s period two Components of a V A V System A parallel, fan-powered term inal unit con s ists of a primary ai rflow modulation device and a sma ll, integral, c onstant-volum e fan pack aged to provide para llel airflow p aths. In the coo ling mode, the unit is controlled in the same m anner as the cooling- only unit.
TRG-TR C0 14-EN 19 period two Components of a V A V System note s When in co oling mode, th e supply a irflow to the s pace equa ls the pri mary airflow . When in tempering and heating modes, the space receives a c onstant supply a irflow equal to the minimum primary airflow plus the plenum airflow delivered by the terminal fan.
20 TRG-TRC01 4-EN note s period two Components of a V A V System In the coo ling mode, the primary a irflow is redu ced as the cooling loa d in the space d ecreases. The total supply airflow to the spac e remains c onstant, a combinati on of cool prima ry air and warm p lenum air .
TRG-TR C0 14-EN 21 period two Components of a V A V System note s Most designe rs also believe tha t series uni ts offer improved acous tical conditions in the spa ce.
22 TRG-TRC01 4-EN note s period two Components of a V A V System A dual-duct terminal unit consists of two airflow mod ulation d evices with control s packaged in a sheet-m etal enclos ure. One co ntrols the cool primary air and the oth er controls the warm primary air .
TRG-TR C0 14-EN 23 period two Components of a V A V System note s As before, this graph indica tes how the a ir supplied to t he space by the termin al unit varies as the sp ace loads change. Th e vertical axis indi cates the total airflow (co ol primary air plus wa rm primary a ir) supplied to the space .

Before dis cussing the commonly -available c ontrol techno logies, it is imp ortant to first un derstand a fundamenta l control concept: press ure-dependent versus pressure- independent control.
TRG-TR C0 14-EN 27 period two Components of a V A V System note s duct stati c pressure, airflow to the spa ce can v ary even when th e immediate modulat ion device does not c hange po sition. A pressure-dependent V A V control sche me uses the space temper ature sensor to directly con trol the positio n of the modul ating dev ice.

TRG-TR C0 14-EN 33 period two Components of a V A V System note s Diffuse rs Each V A V terminal unit is commonly c onnected to a downstre am, sheet-m etal duct that i s then conn ected to the remotely-loca ted diffusers by flexible duc ts. Diffuse rs distribute th e supply a ir effectively to the condi tioned space.
34 TRG-TRC01 4-EN note s period two Components of a V A V System Linear slo t diffusers are general ly preferred for V A V air distribution. They use a principle k nown as the Coanda effe ct to distribute a ir to the condition e d space.
TRG-TR C0 14-EN 35 period two Components of a V A V System note s Because variable -air -volume systems are insta lled in, and distribute air along the surfac es of, ceilings , it is ess ential that th e diffusers be comp atible with th e ceiling d esign.
