Techniques for Measuring and Controlling Minimum Outdoor Air Intake Rates in VAV Systems

Report

Several techniques exist to measure and control minimum outdoor air intake rates for VAV systems in accordance with the ventilation requirements of ASHRAE Standard 62-1989. However, guidelines are lacking to assess the accuracy and ease of implementation of each of these techniques. In this project, theoretical and experimental analyses are performed to evaluate several techniques for measuring and controlling minimum outdoor air intake rates in VAV systems. The findings of this research will be used to develop a set of guidelines intended for use by HVAC system designers and building operators to ensure that minimum outdoor air intake rates are provided by VAV systems.

Using Refrigerants Responsibly

Journal

United States manufacturers of HVAC&R equipment have played a leadership role in making sure refrigerants are used and handled responsibly. For instance, in 1994, the Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute (ARI), the trade association of North American HVAC&R equipment manufacturers, published the Industry Recycling Guide, a guide to recovering, recycling, and reclaiming refrigerants.

How 90.1-2010 Will Affect Health-Care Facilities

Journal

Standard 90.1 was modified by 110 addenda for the 2010 edition. This article explains many of the changes to the mandatory and prescriptive requirements and how they affect health-care facilities. The energy cost budget compliance path and Appendix G are not discussed in this article.

Determination of Suitable Replacement of SF6 When Used as a Tracer Gas In Accordance With ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 110

Report

People working in laboratories rely on proper performance of fume hoods to protect them from over exposure to hazardous airborne chemicals. The ASHRAE 110 “Method of Testing Performance of Laboratory Fume Hoods” was first published in 1985 and updated most recently in 2016. The standard was intended to provide a reproducible method of testing performance of fume hoods that consists of multiple tasks that include inspection of the hood and lab environment, airflow measurements, airflow visualization tests and tracer gas containment tests. The airflow visualization tests provide a means to observe and qualitatively evaluate hood containment whereas tracer gas tests enable measurement and quantification of hood containment. Tracer gas tests are necessary to validate fume hood performance and identify potential factors affecting containment and the ability to protect the hood user. The objectives of this investigation were to identify alternative tracers, test methods and detectors that could reviewed by the Project Committee and update the recently published, 2016 ASHRAE 110 "Method of Testing Performance of Laboratory Fume Hoods".
