Description

Points out that at present the technology of cold air systems is not extensively used in the UK, although there are indications that it is an expanding market. Part of the problem is the lack of design guidance and aid to those involved with the specification and installation of such systems. Advice is particularly required in the area of air supply to the occupied zones. Deals with a programme of work aimed at addressing that situation. Describes the application of computational fluid dynamics to carry out a parametric study of the methods of cold air delivery into a typical office module. Gives guidance concerning the best implementation of the concept of cold air distribution.

KEYWORDS: Cooling, air conditioning, UK, air, low temperature, offices, research, calculating, air flow.
