Performance Simulation and Analysis of Occupancy-Based Control for Office Buildings with Variable-Air-Volume Systems
Variable-air-volume (VAV) systems are used in many office buildings. The minimum airflow rate setting of VAV terminal boxes has a significant impact on both energy consumption and indoor air quality. Conventional controls usually have the terminal’s minimum airflow rate at a constant (e.g., 30% or m...
