12、ewpoint. When zoning an air-conditioned building, adjacent rooms with a similar thermal load pattern are usually treated as a single thermal zone for the air distribution system. However, these rooms may have different patterns of ventilation requirements. From an improved indoor air quality control
13、 perspective, it is better not to group rooms with varied venti- lation requirements into a single zone. Thus, not only the patterns of thermal loads, but also the ventilation requirements, have to be considered in zoning. This implies that a designer should zone rooms with similar patterns of both
14、ventilation requirements and thermal loads. For this purpose, z andf, respectively, are useful ventilation indicators for zoning fan-powered and shut- off VAV systems. IMPACTS OF INCREASING PRIMARY AIRFLOW TO CRITICAL ZONE(S) Raising the primary airflow rate to the critical space(s) can reduce the r
15、equired OA entering the AHU when the system is not in 100% OA economizer mode. Although this concept is accepted by the heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning community, no analytical proof has been found. The following derivations remedy the lack of proof. Consider the MSE, Equation (i). It is
16、true that increasing the critical spaces primary airflow lowers the 2 and, consequently, decreases the Y. It is not obvious, however, that increasing the critical spaces primary air Ms, can reduce the required OA Moy, because all X, Y, and Z terms contain Ms, explicitly or implicitly. The same state
17、ment is also valid for the GMSE. To show the trend more clearly, replace the Y and X in the numerator of Equation (3) with their definitions: - - Ms, I+X-F Multiply by Msn on both sides then substitute Equation (4) into F, Mon MOy = 1 +X-F - Mon - Z+K.X 1 +x- l+K - Mon - x-z 1 +- l+K 1+K - - Monl+K+

For a group of critical zones, the total increment from Equation (43) can be distributed t
24、o each of the critical zones by using Equation (36). Nevertheless, the use of Equation (36) cannot change the ventilation criticalness hierarchy. If it changes, apply Equation (40) to the group of originally critical zones first. This step determines the size of the increment of total primary airflo
25、w that increases the number of critical zones. Distribute this increment according to Equation (36). Then, apply Equation (43) to the new group of critical zones and determine the extra increment of total primary airflow needed to reach the specified OA quantity. CONCLUSIONS By increasing the primar
26、y airflow rate to the critical zone(s) according to the Multiple Spaces Equation and tempering as necessary to prevent overcooling, the total outdoor airflow rate to the building can be reduced when the system is not in 100% outdoor air economizer mode. This reduction, not necessarily to the lowest
27、value, in the outdoor air requirements is a critical part of optimization strategies aimed at reducing the system total energy consumption, since condition- ing outdoor air expends significant energy. Furthermore, to guarantee that only the minimum increment of primary airflow in VAV systems is appl
28、ied, the ventilation criticalness hierarchy cannot change. For this purpose, Equation (19) provides mathematical proof that the total required outdoor airflow rate will decrease with incremental increases in the primary airflow to the critical zone(s). Equation (6) provides mathematical proof that s
29、paces with identical ventila- tion criticalness can be combined into a single ventilation zone. Equation (27) provides the analytical basis for determining the required primary airflow to underventilated critical space(s) served by series fan-powered VAV systems. Equation (36) pro- vides the analyti
30、cal basis to ensure that the distribution of an incremental increase in the total primary airflow for the group of critical zones will not alter their ventilation criticalness hierar- chy. Equation (40) provides the analytical basis to increment the critical zones primary airflow so that its ventila
31、tion criticalness equals that of the zone that is the next lower in the ventilation criticalness hierarchy. Equation (43) provides the analytical basis for incrementing the critical zones primary airflow so that the outdoor airflow rate is equal to a specified value. STD.ASHRAE SRCH IJHVAC 3-1-ENGL

Only the fault detection and diagnostic steps were considered. Further work would be necessary to establish methods for fault evaluation. One pri
33、mary goal was to identify the sensitivity of the algorithm in detecting and diagnosing each of these faults. Refrigerant loss detection could be an immediate application for the proposed FDD method, since fault evaluation is not necessary for this fault. A refrigerant leak should be repaired as soon
34、 as it is detected and diagnosed. As a step towards implementation, the impact of the number of sensors on the sensitivity for detecting and diagnosing refrigerant leakage was also studied. The performance of FDD methods for this study was evaluated using a combination of simu- lations and laborator
35、y experiments. Diagnostic rules were developed through simulation and checked within the laboratory. The sensitivities of the FDD method for detecting and diagnosing each of the five faults were estimated through simulation. Both simulations and experiments were used to investigate the impact of the
36、 number of sensors on FDD performance for detecting and diagnosing refrigerant leaks. EVALUATION TOOLS For the simulations, a vapor compression system model developed and validated by Rossi (1995) was used. It is a modular, steady-state model that solves mass, energy, and momentum bal- ances for any
37、 set of entering air conditions. A steady-state model is appropriate because the fluid flow and heat transfer dynamics are generally much faster than the dynamics of the load and ambi- ent conditions. The model allows the introduction of all of the faults considered in this study. STDmASHRAE SRCH IJ

39、instrumented, three ton rooftop air conditioner was used for testing FDD algorithms. The system has fixed-speed condenser and evaporation fans, a fixed orifice expansion device, and a single-stage, ordoff controlled reciprocating compressor. Figure 3 illustrates the manner with which faults were sim
40、ulated in the test unit: (1) condenser fouling: paper was placed on the air-side of the coils, (2) evaporator filter fouling: paper was placed on the air-side filter, (3) leaky compressor valves: this effect was represented using a hot gas bypass line with a manual valve, (4) liquid line restriction
41、: a manual valve was located in the liquid line before the expan- sion device, and (5) refrigerant leakage: refrigerant charge removal was controlled by a valve located on the high pressure side of the unit and monitored with a scale. All refrigerant cycle temperature measurements were made using K-
42、type thermocouples mounted to the exterior surfaces of refrigerant piping and insulated. On the air side, tempera- tures of entering and leaving air were measured using platinum resistance temperature devices (RTDs) for both the evaporator and condenser streams. The thermocouples and RTDs were cali-
43、 brated by immersion in a mixed ice bath. The measured error for each sensor was used for an offset correction and to estimate the accuracy of the measurement. The error of all the thermo- couple measurements was less than 0.4 K, while the RTDs were within 0.3 K. The relative humidity of air enterin
44、g the evaporator was determined from measurements of dew point using a chilled mirror dewpoint hydrometer. This device is accurate to within 0.5 K and results in an error in relative humidity that is less than 0.05 for the range of conditions considered in this study. FDD TECHNIQUE Figure 4 shows a
45、block diagram of the fault detection and diagnostic system in relation to input and output “measurements” from a vapor compression cycle. For fixed-speed fans, an air- to-air vapor compression cycle is driven only by the air inlet states into the evaporator and con- denser (U). These states are char
46、acterized by the ambient temperature (Tumb) and the return air temperature (T,) and relative humidity of air stream entering the evaporator. In steady- state, every internal state of a normally operating cycle depends solely on the driving conditions. In this investigation, the performance of the cy
47、cle was characterized using a vector of tempera- ture measurements (Y) only. At most, seven temperatures were considered: (I) evaporating tem- perature (vuy), (2) suction line superheat (Tsh), (3) condensing temperature (Tcond), (4) liquid STD.-ASHRAE SRCH IJHVAC 3-1-ENGL 1797 9 0757b50 052b782 Li10

The difference between measured and model predictions of the operating states (residuals) are used by the fault detection and diagnostic classifiers for decision making.
