Description

Track: Fundamentals and Applications
Sponsor: 5.3 Room Air Distribution
Chair: Donald E Larsson, Member, United States Green Building Council, Washington, DC
This seminar will explain the psychrometric calculations required for the application of a chilled beam system. Additionally, the requirements for a dedicated outside air unit will be determined for areas of high wet bulb ambient conditions. Engineers have been reluctant to design or specify these types of systems due to condensation concerns within the conditioned space. This seminar presents the correct calculations for design and selection of condensation free systems. Examples of successful installations in high wet bulb areas are presented.

1. Psychrometrics of Chilled Beam Systems
Donald Larsson, Member, United States Green Building Council, Washington, DC
This presentation demonstrates the correct use of psychrometric calculations in the application of chilled beam systems for the conditioned space.

2. Application of Chilled Beam Systems
Thomas Rice, Member, SEMCO LLC, Columbia, MO
Having an understanding of how a chilled beam works is the first step to having a successful application. Fully appreciating how that chilled beam is applied and interacts with the rest of the heating and air conditioning system is the second step. All chilled beam projects are similar in design regardless of building type and allows for a quick review by the consultant. In a simple overview, we will review 7 basic steps to chilled beam application so that the start of your project is simplified and accurate.

3. Successful Chilled Beam System Installations
Paul Christy, Clark County Public Schools, Winchester, KY
This presentation focuses on successful installations of chilled beam systems. Correct psychrometric conditions, building pressurization and control sequences are highlighted.
