Floor Suplly Constant Volume Ventilation System

Post by Explorer »

Hi everyone,

I am pretty new to IES Ve and have limited knowledge, so I will be very grateful to anyone who can help me modelling an HVAC system I am not particularly sure of how to model it.

I need to model an office which uses a constant volume ventilation system. The air is supplied from the floor at about 18 C and extracted from the ceiling.

My idea was to model the system as "Constant Volume System (fixed fresh air rate), which will be fed by a LTHW gas fired boiler. The cooling/ventilation system will be the modelled as "Centralised balanced A/C" with heat recovery.

My doubt is whether this system is representative? Does it assumes that air will be supplied from the ceiling? And at which temperature?

Any advice will be more than appreciated.

Cheers
