With the rise of computing demands AAON units are available with a variety of energy and high density computational environments, saving options. efficient energy usage is extremely important. Power usage effectiveness (PUE) is a metric used Cooling Tower to determine the energy efficiency of a data center. PUE is determined by dividing the amount of power entering a data center by the power used to run the computer infrastructure within it.

Doerfler, Associate Department Head COMMITTEE MEMBER: Jacob Feldman, Professor iii WIND-CHIMNEY Integrating the principles of a wind-catcher and a solar chimney to provide natural ventilation Fereshteh Tavakolinia Abstract This paper suggests using a wind-catcher integrated with a solar-chimney in a single story building so that the resident might benefit from natural ventilation, a passive cooling system, and heating strategies; it would also help to decrease energy use, CO2 emissions, and pollution. This system is able to remove undesirable interior heat pollution from a building and provide thermal comfort for the occupant. The present study introduces the use of a solar-chimney with an underground air channel combined with a wind-catcher, all as part of one device. Both the wind-catcher and solar chimney concepts used for improving a room’s natural ventilation are individually and analytically studied. This paper shows that the solar-chimney can be completely used to control and improve the underground cooling system during the day without any electricity.

Bhatia, B.E. VARIABLE AIR VOLUME SYSTEMS In central air conditioning systems there are two basic methods for delivering air to the conditioned space 1) the constant air volume (CAV) systems and 2) the variable air volume (VAV) systems. As the name implies, constant volume systems deliver a constant air volume to the conditioned space irrespective of the load with the air conditioner cycling on and off as the load varies. The fan may or may not continue to run during the off cycle. VAV systems, on the other hand, are designed to simultaneously meet a variety of cooling and heating loads in a relatively efficient manner. The system achieves this by varying the distribution of air depending on the cooling or heating loads of each area. The air flow variation allows for adjusting the temperature in a single zone without changing the temperature of air in the whole system, minimizing any instances of overcooling or overheating. This flexibility has made this one of the most popular HVAC systems for large buildings with varying conditioning needs such as office buildings, schools, or apartments. How a VAV system works? What distinguishes a variable air volume system from other types of air delivery systems is the use of a variable air volume box in the ductwork.

We now need to identify sustainable design investments for a very uncertain future of expanding populations, scarcer resources and climate change. Buildings in the Iranian desert regions are constructed according to the specific climatic conditions and differ with those built in other climates. Desert buildings are equipped with air traps, arched roofed, water reservoirs with arched domes and ice stores for the preservation of ice. The operation of modern coolers is similar to the old Iranian air traps which were built at the entrance of the house over underground water reservoirs or ponds built inside the house.

This paper will review the current technologies used by various biosafety cabinet manufacturers to monitor and maintain proper airfl ows as HEPA fi lters load.
