Abstract

Details the energy performance calculation of mechanical ventilation and air conditioning systems, including humidification and dehumidification. It considers the generation (air handling unit) and distribution (duct system) parts. Also includes a simplified calculation of adiabatic cooling systems. Doesn't include emissions calculation, or the calculation of heating/cooling generation.
