1.1 Introducción

1.1.1 Termodinámica

Termodinámica es la ciencia dedicada al estudio de la energía, sus transformaciones, y su relación con el estado de la
materia.

energía • la primera ley (conservación de la energía)


entropía • la segunda ley (calidad de la energía)
toda transformación natural de la energía se acompaña algún lugar de una pérdida de la
disponibilidad de energía para el rendimiento futuro del trabajo

1.1.2 Sistema y alrededores

Sistema: un objeto, cualquier cantidad de la materia, cualquier región del espacio, etc. seleccionado para el estudio

Alrededores: los tipos resto del sistema básico: sistema cerrado (masa de control) y Sistema abierto (volumen de control)

1.1.3 Propiedad, Estado, procesos y Equilibrium

UNA propiedad es la característica observable de un sistema tal como temperatura, presión y densidad.

UNA estado es la condición del sistema definido por las propiedades. UNA proceso es la

transformación del sistema de un estado a otro. Un termodinámico ciclo es un proceso que comienza y

termina en el mismo estado.

1.2 Conceptos básicos

La disciplina de la ingeniería de transferencia de calor tiene que ver con los métodos de cálculo de las tasas de transferencia de calor. Estos

métodos se utilizan por los ingenieros para diseñar componentes y sistemas en los que se produce la transferencia de calor.

(1) Temperatura: Grado de movimiento molecular

SI o C, K IP: o F,
o R

(2) Energía: E (Btu, J)

La capacidad para hacer el trabajo. Ejemplos:

• Térmico
• Ligero
• Mecánico
• Eléctrico
• Química 1

BTU = 1055 J

De trabajo (W) es una acción de una fuerza sobre un sistema en movimiento.

(3) El calor (energía térmica): Q (Btu, J)

El calor es la energía transferida a través de la frontera del sistema por diferencia de temperatura ( Δ T).

3
AE 310 Fundamentos de calefacción, ventilación y aire acondicionado Capítulo 1

(4) Calor específico: do pag ( Btu / lb o F, J / kg K)

Calor necesario para la temperatura aumento de 1 lb de material (1 kg) durante 1 o F (1 o DO).

(5) Capacidad calorífica: ( Btu / ft 3 O F) y masa térmica ( Btu / o F)

Capacidad de almacenar energía

La capacidad calorífica = calor específico densidad x = ρ do pags

La masa térmica = densidad x volumen x calor específico = ρ VC pags

(6) cambio de energía ( transferencia de calor): Q (Btu)

Q = ρ VC pags Δ T

dónde ρ - densidad, V - volumen, Δ T - diferencia de temperatura.

(7) Flujo de calor ( calor tasa de transferencia o la tasa de variación de energía): y (Btu / h)
Q

La energía transferida por unidad de tiempo.

AE 310 Fundamentos de calefacción, ventilación y aire acondicionado Capítulo 1

1.3 Primera ley de la termodinámica

los La primera ley de la termodinámica expresa principio de conservación de la energía. Formas de energia:

2
= Kinetic (movimiento del sistema) Potencial
2 1 KE mv
PE U== mgz
U (T) (posición del sistema)

Interna (almacenada en la materia)

la energía total del sistema (E) = suma de todas las formas de energía

mecanismos de transferencia de energía son el trabajo (W) y calor (Q), que no son propiedades del sistema. Convenios:
El trabajo realizado por un sistema es positivo. La
transferencia de calor a un sistema es positivo.

1.3.1 Primera Ley para el Sistema Cerrado

1.4 Segunda Ley de la Termodinámica

Todos los procesos obedecen al 1 S t Ley de la termodinámica. Sin embargo, algunos 1 S t Nunca se producen procesos de abogados.
Por ejemplo, la transferencia de calor desde el depósito frío para depósito caliente o flujo de baja presión a alta presión.

El 2 Dakota del Norte Ley de la termodinámica define:


• dirección del cambio para los procesos

• equilibrio final para procesos espontáneos


• criterio de rendimiento teórico limita de ciclos
• la calidad de la energía

Cambios de energía y la transferencia implica tanto principio de conservación y degradación de la calidad. Por lo tanto, la
eficiencia térmica de todos los motores de calor debe ser menor que 100% debido a
efectos disipativos . Procesos que ocurren en un sistema como el motor térmico son irreversible desde el sistema o sus
alrededores no pueden ser devueltos a sus estados iniciales. UNA reversible
proceso es una idealización.

Los motores térmicos (bombas de calor) son sistemas cerrados, que opera de forma continua, o de forma cíclica, y los productos (uso)
de trabajo mientras que el intercambio de calor a través de sus fronteras.

Solution :

(6) Enthalpy

Enthalpy of the moist air = enthalpy of the dry air + enthalpy of the water vapor Enthalpy is energy
per unit mass.

i = ia+ W iv
i a = C p,a T i v = i g + C p,v T

where

C p,a = specific heat of dry air kJ/(kg o C), Btu/(lb o F)


C p,v = specific heat of water vapor kJ/(kg o C), Btu/(lb o F)
ig = the enthalpy of saturated water vapor at 0 o C or 0 o F.
i g = 2501.3 kJ/kg at 0 o C; i g = 1061.2 Btu/lb at 0 o F.

Therefore, we have

i = C p,a T + W(i g + C p,v T)

2.2.3 Measurement of other parameters of moist air

To determine state of moist air, one property in addition to the pressure and temperature must be known. It
can be v, I, φ, or W. However, none of them can be directly measured. As an alternative, we seek an indirect
measuring technique. In this section, the method used to determine air humidity will be introduced.

• Adiabatic saturation device

First we look at a special process:

The equation that describes above process is: 1 st Law

so we have

where i fg is enthalpy difference between liquid water and saturated vapor at the temperature T 2

Then the state of moist are can be determined. T 2 is called wet-bulb

Given : P=1.01325 × 10 5 Pa, T 1= 30 ° C, T 2= 26 ° C

Find : W 1 , φ 1

Solution :

Since the state 2 is in saturation, from the Table A-1b (McQuiston & Paker, p587), we can find:

for T 2 = 26 ° C, p v,2 = p s = 0.03363 × 10 5 ( φ= 100%), i fg = 2439.1 kJ/kg, i w= 109.07 kJ/kg

2.4 Characteristics of “Real” Systems

2.4.1 Design conditions

The processes described in the previous chapter are used to condition moist air in a real air- conditioning systems. The
AC system is used to remove both sensible and latent heat from a space. Relationship between sensible and latent heat
is defined as SHF ( sensible heat factor).

Sensible loads :

Latent loads:

Sensible and Latent loads:

Example

Dishwasher (100 dishes/h): sensible 167 W (570 Btu/h), and latent 65 W (220 Btu/h) Person (male, moderate office
work): sensible 70 W (250 Btu/h), and latent 30 W (105 Btu/h) Light bulb: sensible 100 W = 341 Btu/h

AC system provides airflow:


• at certain T to meet sensible loads
• at certain W to meet latent loads

where T supply
and W must
supply
give sensible and latent conditioning proportional to the loads.

Condition line represents line in the psychrometric chart through space conditions with the slope defined by SHF.

This line contains all feasible supply air states. Supply farther from space condition => Smaller mass flow required

Design condition is defined by:

• dry bulb temperature,


• humidity and
• pressure.

Design condition + SHF + T supply


=> Fix mass flow and supply air condition

Example

AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter2

Space design condition is 72 o F and 50% RH. The total cooling load is 1,200,000 Btu/hr (100ton), and the sensible cooling
load is 720,000 Btu/hr (60 ton). Compare flow rates for (a) ∆ T
= 10 o F and (b) ∆ T = 20 o F. ∆ = ( space T T−T supply
)

1 ton= 12,000 Btu/h

Fan & supply duct Return plenum Return fan

Cooling Coils

Cooling coil are indirect contact heat exchangers. Different types:


• Air-to-Water
• Air-to-Refrigerants

Air is outside, and liquid is inside the tubes. Air-side --- fins promote heat

transfer (larger area) Water-side --- shape promotes heat transfer (higher

turbulence)

For an ideal coil: T DB = T coil, mean


φ = 100%

For a real coil: T DB > T coil, mean


φ < 100%

29
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter2

Approximate methods for rough estimate of cooling coil condition:


• fixed relative humidity (assume coil leaving RH, say 90%)
• bypass factor “ b” ( assume fraction of flow bypasses the coil, reminder in perfect contact with coil)

where LA-air leaving the coil, EA - air entering coil, ADP - coil (apparatus) dew point

Example:

A chilled water coil with 8 o C entering water conditions air from 26 o C db/ 19 o C wb to 15 o C db/ 14 o C wb. What are T ADP, b,
and leaving relative humidity?

Solution:

AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter2

Evaporative Cooling

If sufficiently dry air is available, an evaporative process can be used to cool the air stream.
Direct evaporative coolers (see Figure) add moisture to air adiabatically. The evaporation uses air sensible heat => T air drops.

Direct Evaporative Cooler

Direct evaporative cooling effectives:

where ε e varies with air flow rate and media thickness. Range is 60-95%. Typical value is 80%.

Unassisted Direct Evaporative Cooling

Applicable if the wet bulb temperature is less than 24 o C (75 o F). Regional applicability is limited in U.S.:

• the western U.S.


• the north central states
• the northeastern U.S.

May require large supply airflow rates. May give high space humidity at times.

31
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter2

Indirect evaporative cooling is sensible process of cooling an outdoor air stream without humidifying (sensible
cooling).

Primary Indirect Cooler


Air Heat Exchanger Supply Air
Secondary

Indirect evaporative cooling effectives:

Range is 40-80%.

Benefits of evaporative cooling:


large savings possible, “environmentally friendly”, inexpensive for direct cooling.
Problems of evaporative cooling:
may not meat peak loads, may increase duct size, may allow wider variation of humidity, potential microbial
growth problems.

Example of a system that extends application of direct and indirect coolers. The system better control humidity by
combining evaporative and mechanical cooling, and increase energy efficiency by including an economizer.

Heating and Humidification Systems

32
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter2

Humidification types: wetted media, heated pan, atomizer and steam.

2.4.3 Off-Design Conditions

In operation, the cooling or heating loads are only a part of the design loads. HVAC system needs to respond to this
lower demand, and some of the strategies are:
• CAV-RH (Constant Air Volume)
• VAV-RH (Variable Air Volume)
• Face and bypass coil
• Economizer
• Variable T for the heat exchangers

Analyze these processes by the same methods as design conditions. Problems for cooling systems: thermostat
controls T DB, and therefore humidity correct only at design (in general). As a result, space humidity varies with loads,
and may need to iterate to space conditions. This is not a problem for heating conditions. CAV-RH

33
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter2

• same flow rate and W as design conditions, variable T DB


• good control at part loads

VAV-RH
• lower flow rate in proportion to the sensible loads
• same coil dewpoint temperature => less dehumidification Face and

bypass coil
• bypass fraction is proportional to sensible loads
• no dehumidification of bypassed air => supply humidity is proportional to bypass fract.

Face and Bypass Coil

Economizer
• used in spring or fall
• supplies outdoor air without operating a cooling coil; potential humidity problems
• limit is 100% outdoor air; control humidity rise with reheat

The capacity of the heating coil will be larger in winter. Therefore, the final size of the equipment should be the
greater of the summer and winter capacities. In many cases, economizers are used to recover energy. Then
re-heat in the present design becomes unnecessary.

Good IAQ: a clean, healthy, and odor-free indoor environment. “Sick Building Syndrome”

(SBS) is discomfort/illness caused by indoor air. SBS is often comparable to a cold or

influenza

A few facts about poor IAQ:

Health problems: 30 – 70 million people (U.S. EPA) Health complaints: 30% new
and remodeled buildings (U.S. EPA) Occupational illness: 439,000 cases in 1996
(NIOSH) Economic loss: $40 – 120 billion/year ($200-600/person.year)

Causes of sickness:

• COx, NOx and other common gases (human, combustion)


• Environmental tobacco smoke ETS (smoking)
• Volatile organic compounds VOC
(building materials: construction materials, furnishings, finishes)
• Particulate matters (outdoor air, activities, ETS)
• Biohazards (molds, bacteria, etc.)
• Radon (soil)

Common Causes of Poor Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)

Tight buildings (Energy conservation)=>


=>Less outdoor air (Infiltration) =>
=>High contaminant concentrations (New building materials release VOCs)

Numerous indoor air quality investigations over the last decade by the National Institute for Occupational Safety &
Health (NIOSH) have found the primary source of indoor air quality problems are:

• Inadequate ventilation 52%


• Contaminant from inside the building 16%
• Contaminant from outside the building 10%
• Microbial contamination 5%
• Contamination from building fabric 4%
• Unknown Sources 13%

Control of contaminants

New parameters

• Supply air - Total air supplied to a space


• Fresh air - Outdoor air
• Infiltration - Uncontrolled air entered to a space
• Exfiltration - Uncontrolled air left a space

5
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter3

For mechanical ventilated space, infiltration should be zero because of positive pressure in the conditioned space.

Ventilation

Most common method for contaminant control is ventilation. Ventilation can be either natural or forced. Ventilation

dilutes contaminants with outdoor air, and requirements are defined by state/local codes and referenced standards.

ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62-1999:

Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality

Defines:
• Acceptable outdoor air quality
• Procedure for acceptable ventilation

1. Ventilation Rate Procedure

Fixed OA requirements:
• Per person/per m 2
• Varies with occupancy type

The standard prescribes the rate at which outdoor air must be delivered to a space. Example: Office

space 8 l/(s person) (15 cfm/person). Basis:

• Presumed CO 2 concentration < 1000 ppm


• Sufficient outdoor air to remove odors The standard uses CO 2 as indicator of IAQ since CO 2 is “marker”

for human contaminants. Typical quantities 8-10 l/(s person) (15-20 cfm/person)

2. Indoor Air Quality Procedure

This procedure limits measured contaminant concentrations. Must sense

specific contaminants. Ventilation rate procedure predominates. Pros:

Cons:
• Prescriptive • May fail off-design with VAV
• Low capital cost • Energy cost

6
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter3

Perfect dilution (Steady State Ventilation Conditions)

“Well-Mixed Spaces”:
• Perfect mixing of supply/space
• Exhaust at mixed condition
• Constant contaminant generation rate
• Fixed supply flow rate and conditions Mass

balance for contaminants: Mass IN + Generation = Mass OUT

VC - Supply air flow rate (m a3/ s)


CS - Contaminant concentration of the supplied air (m c3/ m a3)

a person breathes out 0.30 L/min. CO 2.

Solution:

Air change rate - ACH (Air Change rate per Hour):

ACH = V C / ( Room volume) = 9.72 m 3/ hr / ( 12 m 2 x 2.5 m ) = 0.324 ACH

An average fraction of OA for all spaces “ X ” is:

• Airflow rate of fresh air is higher than required
• “Unused” fresh air returns to AHU

Define “corrected” OA fraction “ Y ” as:

Y is OA fraction that accounts for “unused” fresh air. Fresh air

balance:
• Return and supply flows are equal
• Recirculated fraction is R

9
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter3

“Multiple Spaces Equation”:

The equation is used to calculate the corrected fraction of outdoor air that takes into account fraction of the
recirculated fresh air. In some cases, the saving are significant if we compare Y and Z.

Example

Four spaces are air-conditioned from a central AHU. The following table gives airflow rates for supply air and fresh air:

Spaces 1 2 3 4 Total
Supply air [cfm] 500 400 600 500 2000
Fresh air [cfm] 200 80 80 75 435
Fresh/Supply 0.40 0.20 0.13 0.15 0.22

Calculate the required OA fraction?

Solution:

Average fraction of OA:


OA fraction for the critical space 1:

Corrected fraction of OA: The required flow

rate of OA is Notice:

cfm < 800 cfm

Standard 62-1999 recognizes transients, i.e. high occupancy/low use spaces such as conference rooms. If the peak
occupancy is used to determine required flow rate of OA, calculated Y is unnecessary high.

To compensate, may:
• Ventilate based on average occupancy
• Lag ventilation start
• Control OA with CO 2 concentration

3.2.2 Thermal comfort

“That condition of mind in which satisfaction is expressed with the thermal environment.” ANSI/ASHRAE

Standard 55-1992:
Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human Occupancy

The following gives a few facts about human beings:

• Heat generated from a human body:

• Human body temperature:

• One would wake up from sleep if this person loses 24 W or more. In this case, the skin temperature decreases
2.8 o C.

• One would feel uncomfortable or sick, if the person’s body temperature is 1 K higher.

Human body energy equation

Human body obeys the first law of thermodynamics. Energy balance for human body: Heat production –

Mechanical work = Heat losses

M - Rate of metabolic heat production (W/m 2 body surface area) (Table 4-1, textbook) W - Rate of
mechanical work Q - Heat losses

C - Convective heat losses R -


Radiative heat losses E -
Evaporative heat losses sk - Skin
res - Respiration

Heat production: measured in metabolic or met units.


1 met = 58.2 W/m 2 = 18.4 Btu/(h ⋅ ft 2) body surface area

• ASHRAE comfort zone

Operative temperature (T o):

T mrt - Mean radiant temperature T mrt = Σ A i T

i/ Σ Ai

T i - Surface temperature of enclosure i A i - Area of

Effective temperature (ET*):

The temperature of an environment at 50% relative humidity that results in the same total (sensible + latent)
heat loss from the skin as in the actual environment. It combines operative temperature and humidity into a single index.

ASHRAE comfort zone (Fig. 4-2):

The “comfort zone” represents combinations of air temperature and relative humidity that most often produce comfort for
a seated North American adult in shirtsleeves, in the shade.

Winter: T o = 20-23.5 o C (68-74 o F) at 60% relative humidity and T o = 20.5-24.5 o C (69- 76 o F) at 2 o C (36 o F) dew
point. Slanting side boundaries correspond to ET* of 20 o C (68 o F) and
23.5 o C (74 o F).

Summer: To = 22.5-26 o C (73-79 o F) at 60% relative humidity and T o = 23.5-27 o C (74- 80 o F) at 2 o C (36 o F) dew

Draft is related to air temperature, air velocity, and turbulence intensity. Percentage

dissatisfied people due to draft can be expressed as: PD = 3.143 (34 - T air) ( V - 0.05) 0.622

+ 0.3696 (34 - T air) ( V - 0.05) 0.622 V Tu When V <

0.05 m/s, use V = 0.05. When PD > 100%, insert PD =

4.2 Automatic Control Systems

HVAC systems are dynamic:


Sized for extreme conditions Most operation is
part load / off-design

Deviation from design => imbalance since Capacity > Load

Without control system, HVAC would overheat or overcool spaces.

Automatic control system


“A system that reacts to a change or imbalance in the variable it controls by adjusting other variables to restore the
desired balance.”

Modern computer-based systems manage system resources (“supervisory”):


• Reduce energy use
• Identify maintenance problems

6
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter 4

Essential components of a control system:

Controlled variable is a characteristic of system to be regulated.

“set point” is desired value “control


point” is actual value

“set point”- “control point” ≡ “error” or “offset”

Sensor measures actual value of controlled variable.

Controller modifies action of controlled device in response to error.

Controlled device acts to modify controlled variable as directed by controller.

Example: Water tank level control

7
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter 4

Example: Steam heating coil.

4.2.1 Control System Types

• Closed loop (feedback) control


• Open loop (feedforward) control Does sensor measure controlled variable? If yes

the control system is closed loop , if no the system is open loop .

In the closed system, controller responds to error in controlled variable. Previous example of the steam heating coil is a
closed loop. In general, HVAC control systems are primarily closed loops. In the open loop system, there is an indirect
link between controller and controlled variable. The system action is based on external variable. The relationship
between external variable and controlled variable is assumed. An example of open loop is electric blanket.

4.2.2 Control Action

• Two-position (on-off) control


• Modulating control

8
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter 4

Two-position control systems are always at full capacity or off. Best for systems with slow rate of change for controlled
variable. This control is common in low cost systems, and it is relatively imprecise.

Example: Two-position control for steam valve in the steam heating coil.

Control differential is difference between “on” and “off” values of controlled variable. Operating differential
is difference between extreme values of controlled variable.

Operating differential > Control differential

9
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter 4

Modulating control systems produce continuously variable output over a range. This is finer control system than
two-position system, and it is typical in large HVAC systems.

Throttling range (TR) is a range of input variable over which output varies through its full range. Gain is ∆ output per ∆ input,
and it is usually adjustable.

Proportional control is the simplest modulating action for which the controller output is a linear function of input:

where O P is the proportional controller output, A is the controller output at zero offset, e is the error (offset), and K P is the
proportional gain constant.

10
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter 4

Smaller TR (larger gain) =>smaller offset. Smaller TR may cause stability problems. Stability is tendency

of a system to find a steady control point after an upset. Instability is tendency for oscillations to grow.

Proportional plus integral (PI) control is designed to eliminate offset.

Proportional + Factor ∝ integral of offset

where O PI is the PI controller output, and K i is the integral gain constant. Integral term
drives offset to zero.

Examples of PI control in buildings include mixed-air control, duct static pressure control, and coil controls.

11
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter 4

Proportional plus integral plus derivative (PID) control further speeds up action of PI control May not be suitable for
HVAC that usually do not require rapid control response.

Additional control ∝ rate of change of error

where O PID is the PID controller output, and K d is the derivative gain constant. Example of PID
application in buildings is duct static pressure control.

Example: Comparison of P, PI, and PID controller response to input step change

12
AE 310 Fundamentals of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Chapter 4

4.2.3 Computers in Control

Software is replacing “mechanical” logic. More sophisticated schemes are possible. Simulation and optimization are
possible in real time.

Example: Graphical interface for HVAC system control.
