CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
Humans are homoeothermic machines who can hardly tolerate a change of 5F in
internal body temperature. Internal body temperature change of 8F can lead to death.
Hence, to maintain internal body temperature within limit, the temperature of the
environment we live must be controlled. Therefore, to create a healthy environment
inside any building, indoor comfort condition is one of the main considerations during
construction. Supply of enough oxygen, maintenance of air purity, removal and
addition of heat as per requirement made Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning
(HVAC) important for all indoor activities.
HVAC system serves to create a healthy and comfortable indoor environment through
addition of necessary heat or removal of unnecessary heat and by conditioning of air
maintaining relative humidity, oxygen level and purity of air. Designing of HVAC
system for the building is as crucial as the designing the building itself. We should
consider the important factor to select the system of proper tonnage and specifications
so that we can ensure comfort at reasonable cost. The building we have chosen is the
proposed building of Innovation Centre for Institute of Engineering (Ground floor
area: 2500m2) where we are designing the complete air conditioning system.
Since in recent years it is seen that air conditioning comprises a hefty share in
electricity bill. Integrating the AC system with Thermal Energy System helps in
optimize the operation cost and also reduce the installation cost.
Thermal storage air conditioning system activates heat pumps during the night when
energy demand is low, in addition to daytime hours when the building is supplied
with conditioned air , to store thermal energy in the form of chilled water, ice and hot
water so that they can be used during the day. In our project we are considering
Thermal energy storage (TES) as a method by which cooling is produced and stored
at one time period for use during a different time period. Water is cooled by chillers
during off-peak hours and stored in an insulated tank. This stored coolness is then
used for space conditioning during hot afternoon hours. Electricity cost peaks during
the day when demand is at its highest and is significantly less during evening hours
when demand is low. TES is considered to be one of the most preferred demand side
management technologies for shifting cooling electrical demand from peak daytime
hours to off peak night hours.
1.2 Statement of Problems
The cost for operating an HVAC system is high.
At part load conditions, traditional chillers become inefficient.
Specific Objectives:
To calculate thermal loads for the building.
To select equipments for HVAC system in the building.
To carry out piping and ducting network design.
To design Thermal Energy Storage system.
To estimate the cost for two systems of air conditioning and find out the cost
benefit analysis.
1.4 Limitations
The project will not cover economic analysis part of the project.
The project will not have separate provision for humidification and
dehumidification system.
Insulation design will not be done in the project.

2.2 Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC)
Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) is the technology of indoor and
vehicular environmental comfort. Its goal is to provide thermal comfort and
acceptable indoor air quality.
Ventilation is the process of exchanging or replacing air in any space to provide high
indoor air quality which involves temperature control, oxygen replenishment, and
removal of moisture, odors, smoke, heat, dust, airborne bacteria, carbon dioxide, and
other gases. Ventilation removes unpleasant smells and excessive moisture,
introduces outside air, keeps interior building air circulating, and prevents stagnation
of the interior air.
Air conditioning is the process of removing heat and moisture from the interior of an
occupied space, to improve the comfort of occupants. This process is most commonly
used to achieve a more comfortable interior environment, typically for humans and
animals; however, air conditioning is also used to cool/dehumidify rooms filled with
heat-producing electronic devices, such as computer servers, power amplifiers, and
even to display and store some delicate products, such as artwork.
Due to the technology advancement, industrial growth and urbanization, buildings
were started construction in a closed area. Also ambient temperatures are changed
drastically due to pollution and concrete structure. Hence air conditioning has become
an essential commodity for residential/office building.
Air conditioners often use a fan to distribute the conditioned air to an occupied space
such as a building or a car to improve thermal comfort and indoor air quality. Electric
refrigerant-based AC units range from small units that can cool a small bedroom,
which can be carried by a single adult, to massive units installed on the roof of office
towers that can cool an entire building. The cooling is typically achieved through
a refrigeration cycle.
The AC system can be broadly classifies as ducted and duct less system.
Ductless system
Window unit air conditioners, which come as a single unit, are installed in an open
window. The interior air is cooled as a fan blows it over the evaporator. On the
exterior the heat drawn from the interior is dissipated into the environment as a
second fan blows outside air over the condenser.
Packaged terminal air conditioner (PTAC) systems are also known as wall-split air
conditioning systems. PTACs, which are frequently used in hotels, have two separate
4
units, the evaporative unit on the interior and the condensing unit on the exterior, with
an opening passing through the wall and connecting them. This minimizes the interior
system footprint and allows each room to be adjusted independently. PTAC systems
may be adapted to provide heating in cold weather, either directly by using an electric
strip, gas, or other heater, or by reversing the refrigerant flow to heat the interior and
draw heat from the exterior air, converting the air conditioner into a heat pump. While
room air conditioning provides maximum flexibility, when used to cool many rooms
at a time it is generally more expensive than central air conditioning.

CLTD = cooling load temperature difference for an indoor temperature of 78 F and
outside average temperature of 85 F for July 21 taken at latitude of 40°N.
LM = correction factor for latitude and month
TR = temperature of conditioned space
Tom = average temperature of outside environment
Tom = Tmax – daily range/2 (Thapa, et. al., 2011)
d. Lighting load
Electric light use sensible heat equal to the amount of the power consumed. Most of
the heat is liberated as heat while rest of the energy as light and eventually becomes to
heat after multiple reflections (ASHRAE handbook Fundamentals, 1997).
After wattage is known, the calculation of heat gain is done as follows
Q = 3.4 × W × BF × CLF
Where,
W= watts input from electric lighting load in watt
BF = Ballast factor = 1.25
CLF= cooling load factor for lighting
7
e. Occupancy load
Heat is added from people in the form of sensible heat and latent heat.
Sensible heat Qs = N × qs × CLF
Latent heat Ql = N× ql
Where,
N= no of people in space.
qs, ql = sensible and latent heat gain from occupancy
CLF = 1 =cooling load factor by hour of occupancy.
f. Equipment load
Many appliances contribute both sensible and latent loads. Heat due to equipment is
calculated as
Q = W × Fl × CLF
Fl = load factor which is the product of usage factor and radiation factor
CLF = Cooling load factor which depends on the scheduled hours and housing of
equipment
g. Ventilation
Ventilation air is the amount of outdoor air that fills the space for the air leaving the
space due to equipment exhaust, exfiltration, or in order to maintain indoor air quality
for the occupants. Cooling load due to ventilation are
Sensible heat Qs = 1.1 × n × CFM × dT
Latent heat Ql = 0.68 × n × CFM × dw
Where,
n = no. of people
CFM = ventilation air flow rate
dT = temperature difference between outside and inside space
dw = humidity difference between outside and inside space
8
outside air through walls, windows and other parts of the building envelope and
leakage of cold air through openings in the building (infiltration). To counteract these
heat losses, heat must be continually added to the interior of the building in order to
maintain a desired air temperature. This heat that must be added in the room to
maintain a constant room temperature is called the Heating load. In our considerations
of the heating load, we don’t consider the infiltration because ventilation is provided
in the room so there is exfiltration but not infiltration.
These various heat loss from the conditioned area were calculated as follows:
b. Ventilation
Ventilation air is the amount of outdoor air that fills the space for the air leaving the
space due to equipment exhaust, exfiltration, or in order to maintain indoor air quality
for the occupants. Cooling load due to ventilation are
Where,
n = no. of people
9
c. Heat loss from floor
When a floor is on the ground, the heat loss is greatest near the outside edges
(perimeter) of the building and is proportional to the length of these edges, rather than
the area of the floor. Heat loss is calculated as
Q= Fp × P × dT
where
Q = heat transfer loss through floor on grade, BTU/hr
Fp = edge heat loss coefficient, BTU/hr-F per ft of edge length
P = total length of outside (exposed) edges of floor, ft
dT= design temperature difference between inside and outside air, F
10
Static regain method
The equal friction method of designing ducts is quite easy and the most popular
method. In this method, the size of the duct is designed such that the friction loss in
equal lengths is same throughout the pipe. The friction loss rate is chosen to result in
an economical balance between duct cost and energy cost. It works fine for networks
that do not have large distances between first and last outlets. But, if there is long
distance between the inlet and outlet of the duct, then the ducts near the fan will be
over pressured.
The static regain method of sizing ducts is most often used for high velocity systems
with long duct runs, especially in large installations. In this method the pressure at all
outlets is made same by equalizing the pressure loss in various branches. With this
method, an initial velocity in the main duct leaving the fan is selected at first. Then
velocities are reduced so that frictional loss in next section equals the pressure rise. It
leads to balancing of duct layout but system size is large.
Air suffers pressure loss due to friction in straight section and also loss occurs
whenever there is change in speed and direction of flow through duct. The dynamic
loss occurs due to change in direction of flow in bends and elbows and sudden change
in cross section area of flow due to enlargement and contraction of duct, damper
controls and suction and discharge points.
Pressure loss in ducts is found by looking at the graphs by locating the flow rate and
the size of duct. Pressure loss in duct fittings can be expressed in two ways (i)
equivalent length method and (ii) loss coefficient method. Under the loss coefficient
method, pressure loss can be calculated as
Hf = C x Hv = C x (V/4000)2
Where,
11
Hv = Velocity pressure at the fitting [in. w.]
V = velocity [ft/min]
Series Loop
In this system the entire water supply flows through each terminal unit and returns to
the generator and pump. In this system the units cannot be isolated and the
maintenance or repair of any terminal units requires shutdown of the entire system.
Series loop arrangement is simple and cheap and is limited to small, low budget
application.
12
One-pipe main
In this arrangement, there is one main pipe as in the series loop through which the
water flows, but instead of being in series with this main, each terminal unit is
connected by a supply and a return branch pipe to the main. By the help of valves in
the branch line, each unit can be separately controlled and serviced.
13
Two-pipe reverse return
In this arrangement the circuit length out to each terminal and back is made
approximately the same to overcome the balancing problem. With this arrangement, it
is a relatively simple process to balance the flow rates. The relative costs of the direct
return and reverse return piping arrangements depend on the building shape and
location of terminal units. In some cases, the costs are not significantly different; in
others, the reverse return piping may be more expensive.
14
Four pipe system
The four-pipe system is actually two separate two pipe systems, one for chilled water
and one for hot water, and therefore no mixing occurs. This is an ideal arrangement,
but of course it is expensive.
15
2.5 Thermal Storage Air Conditioning System
Different systems and attempts have been made to improve the efficiency of the air
conditioning systems. Thermal energy storage systems are one of the systems which
reduce load on the peak hours and reduce the bill of electricity.
An ice Thermal Energy Storage (TES) has operating phases, namely, a charging
phase where (typically at night) heat is removed from water to produce ice, and a
discharging phase, where, when the building requires cooling, heat is removed from
the building and added to the ice. The melted ice is reused during the next charging
period. The advantage of this cooling scheme is that the main electrically driven
device in cooling systems, namely, the compressor, is operated during low-electrical
cost periods, i.e. at night (Prathibha Bharathi V V, 2017).
Dincer (2002) did a cost benefit analysis in HVAC systems of Malaysia and found out
that full storage strategy can reduce the annual costs of the air conditioning system up
to 35 percent.
The offset in electricity demand is accompanied by an improved system performance
and reduced total cost of the installation of the system. Ice making at night is also
easier due to lower night time temperatures which can reduce energy consumption.
Ice storage system consists of a factory assembled ice making plant and a storage tank
containing mixture of ice and chilled water. Ice thermal storage system can provide
nearly instantaneous response to short term cooling needs. This system can change its
mode to chilled water generation from ice generation in accordance to the load
conditions.
Ice-on-coil type
In this method, long length of coil is made inside the tank in which the ice is to be
made. For making ice secondary refrigerant ethylene glycol at low temperature flows
in the coil and cycles continuously taking the heat of the water. This process results in
the formation of ice on the outside surface of the coils.
Based on the method of ice melting, ice-on-coil type is divided into two types:
Extermal melting ice-on-coil type and internal melting ice-on-coil type. For external
melting ice-on-coil type, while melting ice, the backwater with a higher temperature
of air-conditioner flows into ice-storage tank and gets heat transfer with the ice in it
by direct contact, making the ice melt from outside to inside. External melt ice
systems are capable of high instantaneous discharge rate, and maintain constant low
discharge temperatures through most of the discharge cycle.
For internal melting ice-on-coil type, the secondary refrigerant with a higher
temperature in the tube get heat transfer for the second time with the ice outside to
melt it.
The major drawback of static ice storage technologies is that the rate of ice production
slows down as the thickness of ice increases. This problem is not seen in dynamic
storage technologies.
17
sprayed into the tank. This melts some portion of ice making chilled water. This
chilled water is then pumped for air conditioning.
18
Chillers selected for the TES should be based total amount of cooling required not on
the maximum cooling load. The sum of chiller daytime and night time capacity (ton
hours) should be equal to the total amount of cooling required (ton hours).

CHAPTER THREE METHODOLOGY
Building is constructed by using brick wall with plaster in both sides. Windows are of
glass type with aluminum frame. Brick wall and glass are used for partition. Indoor
Doors are mainly made of wood and outdoor doors are made up of glass with
aluminum frame. Floor height is 4 m.
20
Peak hours (11 pm to 5 am). During Paush to Chaitra normal time is from 11 pm to 5
pm (no off peak hours).

appendix B.

For heating load all the parametric values are same except the outside convective heat

transfer coefficient for heating as
5. For ceiling
6. For roof
Heat gain for cooling load was calculated using the CLTD method and other formula
given in Literature. Extreme condition of temperature was considered. It was assumed
that 15 CFM of fresh air is needed per person inside the conditioned space (ASHRAE,
23
2007). Cooling load contribution is given by conduction, radiation, ventilation, people
and equipment.
Heating load do not require time wise calculation. Conduction and ventilation
contribute to the heat losses. For the calculation of heating load we considered the
extreme situation in which no heat was gained through solar radiation, lighting,
people and equipment. Thus, only heat loss due to conduction and heat required to
condition fresh air supply was calculated.
24
3.7 Pipe sizing and layout
Pipe sizing will be done by the equal friction method. At first flow required for each
terminal unit will be found out. Then the flow required for each floor will be
determined and flow in each section of the riser will be determined. A friction loss
rate of 3.5 ft of water per 100 ft of pipe will be chosen. Then from the friction chart
diameter of pipe required is determined for the flow rate and friction loss rate.
Whenever the pipe size is not standard, higher pipe size will be selected. Then
velocity and the friction loss for the flow and pipe size will be determined.
Piping layout is two pipe reverse return type. Reverse return was chosen to minimize
over pressurizing at some terminal units or maintain hydronic balance. It is also kept
in mind not to complicate the piping design and disturb the aesthetics of the building
during piping.
The piping material chosen will be schedule-40 steel pipe. Chilled/ hot water will be
generated by two heat pump type water chillers. The main supply pipe is branched
into three risers which carries the C/H into each floor in the building.
Based on the design procedure described above, size of the pipes will be determined.
The system and riser layout and schematic drawing of the piping layout are given in
the sheets in Appendix.
25
3.9 BOQ and Cost Benefit analysis
BOQ preparation of the system will be done on basis of current market price of
HVAC equipments and accessories. Separate BOQ will be prepared for the two
systems and their cost will be estimated. Installation and operating costs will be
recognized for the two systems and comparison will be done between them to find out
the cost benefits if TES system is chosen over the traditional chiller system.

Figure 4. 1 Variation of cooling load with time of day
From the bar chart above, we observed that the cooling load was maximum at 4 pm
which was 219.8 TR out of which 87.7 TR is sensible cooling load and 132.1 TR is
latent cooling load. The share of latent load is found high in the building because of
the 15 CFM of fresh air supply per person and high number of people in building. The
cooling load was maximum at 4 pm because of thermal storage effect of the brick
walls in the building which absorb the heat at early times of the day and transmit
inside the building during late afternoon.
The total cooling loads calculated floor wise at these five different times are given in
Table below.
27
Table 4. 1 Cooling load at different time
From Table 4.1, we see that the total cooling load for first floor was maximum i.e.
106.5 TR.
Sensible cooling load is the heat generated due to temperature difference, equipment
heat and lighting. Sensible cooling load corresponds to the dry bulb temperature. For
summer condition humidity must be considered while selecting the equipment and the
latent load must be calculated. Latent cooling load occur due to the phase change of
water. They increase with the increase of water vapor which also increases humidity.
Conduction through walls, glass, floor and roof, Solar radiation through glass and
lighting load are pure sensible loads. Sources of cooling load like people, ventilation,
and infiltration through micro cracks in the building doors and window are part
sensible and part latent. Equipment loads can be pure sensible or combination of
latent and sensible depending upon the type of equipment used.

The comparison between the sensible and latent loads for the different floors is given
in figure below. This show that high amount of latent loads is seen in the ground and
first floors. The reason for this is very dense occupancy. People give out sensible as
well as latent loads. In our design, the portion of latent load is high as we have
provided fresh air flow rate of 15 CFM per person which drastically affects the latent
load.
We see that ratio of sensible to latent heat in second and sixth floor is seen more. This
occurred because of the addition of the sensible heat to the rooms through roof.

Figure 4. 2 Comparison of Latent and Sensible cooling loads at 4 pm
Since all rooms do not usually have the full occupancy of people and cooling is not
required at times where there are no occupants, we have to consider certain diversity
factor to account for this condition. Diversity factor of 85% is chosen for our building
and the load is found as 186.8 TR after applying this correction. We set this as our
required maximum cooling capacity during chiller selection.
29
4.3 Heating Load
Heating Load is the heat that must be added to compensate for the heat loss occurring
in the building in winter. The total heating load of our building is found to be 360.2
KW (102.4 TR) during January. This is found to be quite less than the cooling load.
The reason for this is that the building operates only during daytime during which the
temperature of surrounding is higher than the average temperature.
The comparison of the cooling load of different floors is shown in the figure below.
From this we see that the heating load of the first floor is very high as compared to the
other floors (46.42 TR, 163.25 KW). This is about 45% of the total heating load. Main
reason for this high load is large number of people which requires high amount of
ventilation. Thus ventilation load is the major load in the heating load of our building.
From our observation we see that heating load is comparatively lower than the
cooling load, about half.
