Problem Statement
PSH M&O renovated room E 219 in the Olmsted Building The group is responsible for the HVAC portion The existing fan coil system needed to be replaced or
upgraded Two ME teams formed
HVAC Controls
Teams Involved
ME Teams – analyzing old and new system and choosing a suitable control system.
EE – 2 teams choosing wiring and lighting systems for the room.
Scope
Research 3 different systems and determine which works best
Install and commission HVAC system by end of Spring 2015 semester
Benchmark the newly installed system
Scope: Approach Break Down
Alternatives
Three different systems were considered. Two pipe fan coil system Variable air volume system Chilled beam system
The updated Fan Coil system was determined to be the most cost effective solution.

Total
Fan Coil 1 3 1 1 6
VariableAir Volume (VAV)
2 2 2 3 9
Chilled Beam 3 1 3 2 9* This scale used 1 as the best and 3 as the worst. Once each category
was scored for each system, a total was taken and the system with the lowest score was chosen.
Installation Cost
Fan Coil- basically already in place. Plumbing for units are already installed in room.
VAV- would require large ductwork and unit. Higher cost to retrofit.
Chilled Beam- highest cost. would require plumbing fitting above ceiling. Higher cost to retrofit. Would also require an additional system to handle humidity.
Energy Efficiency
Fan Coil- least efficient units to run. They rely the most on electricity to circulate air.
VAV- most efficient system. Keeps air at constant temperature and varies fan speed to regulate temperature.
Chilled Beam- requires fans to circulate heated air around room during winter.
Maintenance
Fan Coil- easiest and safest to maintain. Conveniently accessible filters, located on ground level along walls.
VAV- located above ceilings, reaching filters requires ladders, increased fall risk, working above-head.
Chilled Beam- requires working at ceiling level on ladder, increased fall risk, most cleaning required.
Space Requirements
Fan Coil- least amount of space required, retrofits very easily. No above-ceiling additional ductwork or equipment required.
VAV- requires the most above ceiling ductwork and equipment. Making everything easily accessible would be difficult.
Chilled Beam- would require additional plumbing as well as chilled beams installed in ceiling. (42 ft of beams necessary to effectively cool room)
Final Choice: Fan Coil Units
FCBB0601C**ABH10AC3M00—01x00H30000000000000 B: Cabinet type: Vertical 060: Unit Size: 510 cfm; 48.02 MBh C: Coil: 4 Row Hot Water
Manual Calculations
ASHRAE 62.1 Ventilation Standards Vbz = RpPz+RaAz =(7.5*60)+(.06*1075)=514.5 cfm
12” x 5.5” Duct will deliver 260 cfm of airflow to the room.
Energy Calculations
Energy Savings: Lighting Controls: electricity reduction of 10%
=> 795 Btu/h = 1.45 million btu/year = cost saving of $56
Temperature Controls: Temperature drift from 68°F to 72°F => 510.3 Btu/h = .93 million btu/year = cost saving of
$36
Total: If implemented for 10hr/day around $93 per room can be saved over the warmest part of the year.
