Summary
The group was tasked to develop a heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning system for the Oklahoma
Air National Guard Building in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The building is a 19,000 square foot facility
with offices, training rooms, showers, lockers, restrooms, and a vehicle maintenance bay. The building is
a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) silver certified facility. The major constraints for
the design are occupancy, the radio maintenance work center, and the maintenance bay. The front
offices are occupied year round, while the remainder is occupied one weekend a month and 2 weeks per
year for the guard members. The radio maintenance work center requires local exhaust for soldering.
The vehicle maintenance bay calls for only heating and ventilation.

Zones
The preliminary task in the system design was to break up the building in zones, depending on the
room’s function, occupancy load, and locations. below shows the zone division for the entire building.
The three zones to the left of the figure are all flight offices that were broken down into individual zones
because they encounter different occupancy loads at the same time. Zone 4 was where the full time
staff was located and had the heaviest traffic through the building; hence it was assigned its own unique
loading. Zone 5 contained the simulation room where occupants exhibit medium activity and requires
medium air recirculation. Zone 6 was also occupied year round similar to the main offices, but because
of the room locations they were designated as different zones. A similar case can be seen for zones 7
and 12 where they had their own heating sources and only required ventilation during the summer.
Zones 9 and 10 exhibit similar characteristic where no air recirculation is desired. Yet because the gym
(Zone 10) had higher loads due to the high duty activity, it had to be separated from the locker room.
Zone 8 and Zone 11 had their own characteristics that had to be separated from other zones.

Thermal Resistance of Walls


The LEED certification is a rating system on how energy efficient a building is. To acquire such a
certification the building must limit the amount of energy transmitted through the walls, roof, and
foundation. Thus, insulating materials were used liberally creating a thermal barrier. The majority of the
walls were made of 5/8” gypsum board, R-19 batt insulation with 6’ metal studs 16” on center, ½”
gypsum sheathing, an air space, and 4” brick face. The resistance for each material was found in HVAC
analysis and design [ CITATION McQ05 \l 1033 ] and ASHRAE Fundamentals. The overall heat transfer
coefficient was calculated using equation 1 for the heat transfer coefficient and equation 2 to determine
a coefficient for the insulation including the studs. All the resistance information for wall, roofs and
floors can be found in in the end of the report.

Heating Load
The winter heating load for the building was divided to several components because heat was
conducted through several different media. Conduction through walls, doors, windows, roof, floor and
infiltration were all factors that needed to be accounted for. All assumptions and heat transfer
calculations are carefully explained in the next few subsections.

Assumption and Outside Condition


Due to the existence of unknown variable and worst condition analysis, there are several assumptions
that were made during heating load calculation of this project. Those assumptions included:
 An Indoor comfort temperature assumed to be 72°F and relative humidity of 40% with an
outside design temperature of 17°F was used from Table B-1a [CITATION Mcq05 \l 1033 ]
 For pressure calculations during winter condition, outside wind speed was assumed to be 15
miles per hour.
 It was assumed that all exterior walls experienced windward conditions with C p = 0.5 for worst
case analysis.
 All doors and windows were assumed to be tight fittings with a leakage coefficient of K = 1
 Outside relative humidity was assumed to be 0% for the worst case scenario.

Heat Conduction
Utilizing the resistance for walls, doors, windows and roof the heating conduction was calculated by
using equation 3 below.

q̇ =UAΔT (3)

The floor conduction had its own unique equation (4) that utilized the heat loss coefficient of concrete,
the perimeter of the room and the difference between the interior and exterior temperatures. All the
conduction heat through different media was then summarized and called total transmission heat.

q̇ =UPΔT (4)
Heat Infiltration
Infiltration or the permeation of outdoor air into the interior space was calculated by using the crack
method. The equations for this method depend on the length of crack, the pressure difference between
the two spaces, and the type of crack. Because the OKANG building was a single story structure and was
not internally pressurized, the only pressure difference included in the analysis was due to the wind
speed. Based on the total infiltration, the sensible load and the latent load were calculated using
equations 5 and 6.
q̇ sensible= ṁCpΔT (5)
q̇ latent =ṁ hΔω (6)
Where:
Cp = average wall pressure coefficient
h = enthalpy of vaporization
Δω = absolute humidity difference between indoor space and outdoor condition

General Results
The heating load for each zone is calculated and is shown in .

Figure : Heating Load for Each Zone in (Btu/hr)

It can be seen from that the heating load was not distributed evenly throughout the building due to
each zone’s surrounding conditions. Zones located in the middle of the building had very little
interaction with exterior conditions required a smaller amount of heating load per unit area. The
simulation room (Zone 5) for example, had a smaller load compared to the flight office (Zone 1) that had
a smaller area. The Latrine and locker room required the smallest load of 2,680 Btu/hr. On the contrary,
the front offices which had multiple doors, windows and exposed walls forcing it to require the largest
amount of heating load (32,690btu/hr). This meant that the amount of heating load depended heavily
on the surface area of exposed walls, doors and windows, but the roof and concrete slab had a much
smaller effects on the heating load. After summing heating values for all of the zones, the building’s total
heating load was found to be 174,537 Btu per hour.

Detailed Results
A sample heating load calculation from the radio maintenance room (Zone 11) was discussed in this
section to further illustrate the group’s findings. The heat transmission load and the infiltration load are
shown below in and respectively. The calculation for other zones can be found in at the end of the
report.

Table : Transmission Heating Load for zone 11

Table : Infiltration Heating Load for Zone 11

In this particular zone, the north and south walls were directly exposed to the outside conditions while
the east and west walls were connected to other zones. Heat was conducted through the exterior north
and south walls as well as the roof and the floor. There were also 5 windows that contributed infiltration
effects to the zone and had to be taken into account. The total infiltration for the zone was found to be
approximately 1000 Btu per hour. After calculating all the transmission and infiltration loads, the
resulting total heating load in zone 11 was found to be roughly 11,600 Btu per hour.

Cooling Load
During the warmer parts of the year the facility needed to be cooled. In order to determine the cooling
load, the group needed to consider several factors such as the amount a radiation striking the building,
internal heat gains, and infiltration from outdoor air. To determine the maximum cooling load during the
year, it was assumed to be worst case on the summer solstice, July 21. The radiant time series method
was utilized to for calculating the total heat gains seen by the building in a 24-hour period. To illustrate
the group’s findings zone 1 will be looked at in detail.

Solar Radiation
In order to determine the amount of radiation striking the surface the position of the sun throughout
the day needed to be determined. The local Solar Time (LST) was essential in determining the position of
the sun based on time, latitude, and longitude. The LST on a given day made it possible for the solar
altitude angle β, the solar azimuth angle φ, and the angle of incidence θ to be calculated. With these
angles the sun’s relation to the building for any given 24-hour period was accurately calculated. The
total amount of radiation striking a surface is given by equation 7.

G t =[max ( cosθ , 0 )+ C F ws + ρ g F wg ( sinβ+C )]G ND (7)

For zone 1 there are three outside surfaces in which radiation strikes, the south wall, the west wall, and
the roof. The radiation calculations for zone 1 are in .

Solar Heat Gain through Fenestration


Windows are great for allowing light into a building. However, they also allow for radiation to pass
through as well. The amount of solar radiation passing through the window determines the amount of
heat gain. To be able to account for the total amount of heat gained through fenestration the areas of
the glaze, the area of the frame, and the amount of solar irradiation needed. The solar heat gain
coefficient simplifies the process. It allows for a fraction of the incident solar energy to be calculated.
The coefficients for the glaze were found in table 7-3 [ CITATION McQ05 \l 1033 ]. The solar heat gain
coefficients for the frame were found by using equation 7-31 [ CITATION McQ05 \l 1033 ]. The total solar
heat gain was then obtained by equation 8, where IAC is the interior solar attenuation coefficient. It was
assumed that there was nothing covering the windows from the inside, thus, IAC was assumed to be
one. It was also assumed that the windows were not setback, therefore no shading occurred.

q̇ SHG=[ SHGC f A sl GDθ + SHGCf A f Gdθ ] + [ SHGC gD Asl , g GDθ + SHGC g d A g Gdθ ] IAC (8)

For zone 1 there were two small sets of windows on the south wall and two small windows on the west
wall for radiation to pass through. The calculations for the windows in zone 1 are shown in .

Internal Heat Gains


Internal heat gains were a significant component to the cooling load and were broken down into three
main categories for the OKANG building: people, lights, and equipment. For calculating heat gains
caused by people, the amount of heat given off depended on the type of activity the people are
participating in. Table 8-2 of McQuiston’s Heating Ventilating, and Air Conditioning, gave a broad range
of heat gains for people based on their activity level. The amount of heat given off by lighting was
determined by the total wattage of the lights themselves. The amount of lighting was estimated by using
Table 2 of the provided AHRAE handbook which provided a value with the units Watt per square foot
[CITATION ASH09 \p 5 \l 1033 ]. The amount of heat gain from equipment was given by the amount of
power used. For safety and energy efficiency reasons it was assumed that lights and equipment was at
twenty percent of full capacity outside of business hours. It was also assumed that no one would be in
the building outside of typical business hours.

From the occupancy plan, zone 1 would have twenty people doing sedentary light work. From Table 8-2
of Heating Ventilating, and Air Conditioning the total sensible heat gain for zone 1 during business hours
was determined to be 4900 Btu/hr and the total latent heat gain for zone 1 during business hours was
3100 Btu/hr. The internal heat gain for the lights was estimated using 1.4 W/ft^2, yielding 8000 Btu/hr
at peak load[CITATION ASH09 \p 5 \l 1033 ]. The calculations for zone 1 are found in .

Sol-air Temperature
The sol-air temperature or, the effective temperature of outdoor air that would give an equivalent heat
flux, was calculated by using equation 9[ CITATION McQ05 \l 1033 ]. Sol-air temperature calculations for
each zone are shown in .

t e =t o+(αG t )/ho−εδR/ho (9)

Conduction Heat Gain


The conduction heat transfer at the inside surface was found using equation 10. The periodic response
values were assumed to be Wall 2 and Roof 2 from table 8-18 in McQuiston’s Heating Ventilating, and
Air Conditioning, because of the similarity to the walls and roof of the building.

(10)

The conduction heat gain was given by equation 11.

The conduction heat gain for windows was given by equation 12.

q̇ conduction ,∈ ,window ,θ=(U f A f +U g A g )(t o −t i ) (12)

The conduction heat gains for zone 1’s three surfaces are in . They were calculated by using a nested
loop in Microsoft Visual Basic, see .

Infiltration
Using the crack method the total flow rate of outside air was calculated. The total heat gain due to
infiltration is given by equation 13 is shown for zone 1 in .

Q̇ c p
q̇ infiltration = ∗(t o −t i ) (13)

Radiant Time Series
The Radiant Time Series method estimates the cooling load due to the radiative portions of each heat
gain. [ CITATION McQ05 \l 1033 ] Each heat gain was split into radiative and convective fractions with
accordance to table 8-20 of McQuiston. The radiant time factors for medium weight wall1 were
assumed from Table 8-21 of McQuiston. The radiative cooling load was then calculated using equation
14.

q̇ θ ,cl =r o q̇θ +r 1 q̇ θ−δ +⋯+ r 23 q̇ θ−23 δ (14)

The total cooling load was then found by summing the infiltration, radiative cooling load, and the
convective heat gain. The radiant time series calculations for zone 1 are found in .

The total cooling load for zone 1 is shown in . It exemplifies that the two primary drivers for the cooling
load were people and lights. Infiltration and equipment heat gains are almost negligible during business
hours. The graph shows that the walls have a thermal mass because of the delayed drop in cooling load
after the people leave and the lights are turned off. All other zones were calculated in a similar manner.

General Total Cooling Load
By using similar manner as previous example, the total cooling load for each zone is then calculated and
shown in .

Figure : Total Cooling Loads

By analyzing results in Figure 4, it was found the highest cooling load required was in the simulation
room (zone 5) with the front offices and radio maintenance work center being the second and the third.
A lot of cooling was required in zone 5 due to the massive amount of internal heat gain developed in the
zone. The simulation equipment and computers produced an equipment load of approximately 27,000
Btu per hour. It is understandable that offices required a lot of cooling load because of their exposed
walls, doors and windows are located in that area. The reason why radio work produced such a high
load was due to the infiltration and heat conduction from the east wall that was connected to radio
maintenance bay. During summer, cooling was not provided in the radio maintenance vehicle bay and
therefore, its temperature will be similar to outdoor design temperature. The total cooling load for the
entire building based on the calculation was found to be 298,519 Btu per hour; detailed calculation can
be found in .

Air Flow Rates and Supply Temperatures


Assumptions and Methods
After calculating the heating and cooling loads for each of the zones, the air flow rates required to size
ducts and diffusers for each zone were determined. By using assumptions provided by (McQuiston 68)
an initial supply temperature of approximately 20°F less than the dry bulb temperature of the room was
assumed. Once a good estimate supply temperature was known the corresponding enthalpies of the
room and the air entering the room were found using the Psychometric Chart. Then using equation 15
the mass flow rate was found. Also using the Psychometric Chart the specific volume corresponding to
the supply temperature was used to calculate the volumetric flow rate using equation 16. All the
Schematic from Psychometric chart can be found in Appendix E. The same procedure was done for the
heating flow rates however the supply temperature was assumed to be 20°F greater than the
comfortable air temperature of the room. Table 3 and Table 4 show the initial flow calculations with the
20 degree assumption for cooling and heating condition respectively.


ṁ=
( hroom −h supply )
(15)

Where m dot [lb/hr], is the mass flow rate, Q dot [Btu/hr] is the cooling load at peak conditions, h room
[Btu/lb] is the enthalpy of the dry bulb room temperature, and h supply [Btu/lb] is the enthalpy of the
dry bulb air being supplied to the room.

V̇ =v supply × ṁ (16)
Where V dot [cfm] is the volumetric flow rate and v supply [cft/lb] is the specific volume of the air being
supplied to the room.

Supply Temperatures
The 20 degree assumption was a good approximation because it accounted for all of the losses in the
ducts and assumed that energy from the fan is completely transferred to the air which results in a lower
supply temperature. In this design all of the air not exhausted is recirculated back to the main air
handler and cooling coil. This allowed the supply temperature to remain at a constant 55 °F and the air
flow rates to be controlled by dampers to decrease or increase the flow based on whether the building
was operating in full load or part load condition.

Flow Rate Results


Table : Cooling Air Flow Rates

There were no calculations for the Maintenance Room (Zone 7) and Mantenance Bay (Zone 12) because
the zones only require ventialtion during the summer conditions. The Simulation Room (Zone 5) had the
largest load due to all of the internal heat gains from the equipment and as a result has the largest air
flow requirements. The Multi-Purpose Room (Zone 8) and the Workout Room (Zone 10) are required to
handle the greatest about of bodies and activity so their loads in respect to their zone areas are high.
Zone 11, which is the zone right next the maintenance bay, also has a large air flow rate requirement
due to the infultration through the double doors that connect to the bay.

Table : Heating Air Flow Rate

The first Flight Office (Zone 1) and the Front Offices (Zone 4) have larger air flow demands for heating
because the heating load requirements are the largest for these sections. The first flight office has 4
windows and a large area connected to the outside wall. The front offices have a large amount of
windows and two sets of vestibule doors conncected to the outside so this confirms that the air flow
rate demand would be the greatest for this section.

Diffusers
For diffuser selection each group member was responsible for knowing their own zone airflow rates and
characteristic lengths, two of the major variables for selecting diffuser types and locations in a given
zone. The first step in selecting a diffuser was to decide on a diffuser type and determine its
characteristic length L. For the majority of the building circular ceiling diffusers were selected based on
the climate that the building was located in. Because of Oklahoma’s hot summers and mild winters, the
HVAC system is forced to be cooling dominated, meaning that over the course of a year the majority of
the load will be cooling loads. For the system to effectively neutralize outdoor heat gains in addition to
internal heating caused by occupants, lighting, and equipment, circular ceiling diffusers were the best
choice. Circular ceiling diffusers provided a relatively even cooling profile minimizing stagnation during
cooling. After selecting a diffuser type and number for a particular room, a characteristic length could be
determined by looking at the given floor plans and Table 11-1 of the text book. In zone 6 (room 125) for
example the width of the room was 15ft and the diffusers were placed centrally making the
characteristic length 7.5ft. Next, values from table 11-4 allowed a size to be selected based upon flow
rate and the radius of diffusion. Zone 6 required three 10” diffusers with approximately 268cfm per
diffuser to neutralize the heat gain for the room. After selecting a size, actual values for radius of
diffusion, noise criteria (NC), and total pressure were determined by interpolation when a flow rate was
between two values in table 11-4 of Heating Ventilating, and Air Conditioning. shows the calculated
values of throw (La), total pressure (Pt), and noise criteria.

Air Distribution System


Because of the building’s size and LEED requirements for efficiency, a variable air volume (VAV) system
was chosen to distribute air throughout the structure. Depending on loading conditions of individual
zones, VAV systems respond by “throttling” the volume of air supplied to each zone[ CITATION Mcq05 \l
1033 ]. For the OKANG building only two zones are needed to be regulated year round and the other ten
are occupied one weekend a month and two weeks out of the year. Because of the buildings occupation
schedule the VAV system could close the dampers to the vacant zone, decrease the fan’s speed, and
reduce the cooling/heating coil load, thus improving the overall efficiency of the system. Besides lower
operation costs a VAV system also has lower initial costs compared to other individual space control
systems because it requires single runs supply duct [ CITATION Mcq05 \l 1033 ].
Once a system type was selected, ducting had to be run from the roof top unit to the individual zones.
To achieve this, a main duct was used to supply all of the zones. From the main, single run ducting
branched off to supply air to the diffusers. After a schematic was drawn for the ducting system (shown in
), calculations for duct diameter were performed by utilizing the equal-friction method.

Figure : Ducting System

The equal-friction method assumes that there is a consistent pressure loss per foot of duct length for
the entire system. To estimate the pressure loss, the longest run or longest distance from the plenum to
diffuser needed to be considered for the calculation. Next equivalent lengths for the fittings along the
selected longest run were determined and summed with the longest run length to get a total duct
length. The total available pressure for the ducting was then divided by the calculated total length which
resulted in a pressure loss per unit length. Next the friction loss and supply flow rate were used to look
up duct diameters from Figure 12-21 in the HVAC analysis and design text book (McQuiston, 420). At a
standard duct size the actual pressure drop per 100ft section was obtained from the chart as well. With
the actual pressure drop and equivalent length a pressure drop could be calculated for each section of
ducting. The pressure drop for each run in the zone was then calculated. This process was repeated for
every zone in the building to determine fan sizing.
A sample zone 1, 2 and 3 is taken for pressure loss and equal friction analysis while those from other
zones can be found in . below shows the ducting design for zone 1, 2, and 3 starting from the plenum
located near the simulation room.

Figure : Ducting system for the Zone 1, 2, and 3

In , the plenum is shown by the blue box and the longest run runs from section 1 to section 6. It is seen
that the ducting system is designed utilizing as less tee junction four way intersection as possible to
minimize pressure loss. By using the equal friction method, the duct size for every section in the zone
can be calculated and is shown in .

From , ducts diameter was consistent where the main ducts such as section 1 and 2 which had larger
diameters compare to the branch ducts connected to diffusers such as section 19. The largest diameter
for ducts coming out directly from plenum was 24 inch. By using the diameter and the air flow rate, the
pressure loss through every run was then calculated. below illustrates the pressure loss for the longest
run in the zone (run 6).
Figure : Pressure Diagram for Longest Run in Zone 1, 2, and 3

It is seen that pressure is decreasing steadily as air going further to the diffuser number 6. The figure
shows that both static pressure and total pressure losses did not exceed the supply pressure in the
plenum. An ending static pressure of approximately 0 inches of water column also further indicates that
the room was at atmospheric pressure. The pressure drop diagram for the other zones can be found in
on the end of the report.

Fans
With the calculated flow rates, it was possible to do a fan selection for the main unit and the rest of the
air handler to every zone. From previous section it was noted that around 15,000 cubic feet per minute
was required to be distributed to all zones inside the building. In order to compensate the flow rate
required, a suitable fan had to be selected. 3 major parameters that were used in fan selection was the
size of the fan, type of the fan and the efficiency of the fan.

Size of the Fan


The size boundary condition for fan selection was the ducting spaces that were located in the attic of the
building. The approximate attic height was found from the architectural plan of the building is around 3-
4 feet. Therefore fans selected for VAV unit and those in other air handlers had to be smaller than the
specified space constraint. A parallel fan arrangement that substitute one large fan to multiple small
fans was one possible solution to solve size issue. This type arrangement is commonly used when a
building has a wide attic area with a limited height [ CITATION Mcq05 \l 1033 ].
Type and efficiency of the fan
Generally, fans are divided into centrifugal and radial axis fan. Yet, centrifugal is the most widely used
fan in HVAC system due to its cheaper price and simpler construction. Centrifugal fans can have a
backward curve blade or a forward curve blade depending on its purpose. Backward fans are usually
used for medium flow rate and high static pressure application with maximum efficiency between 75 to
80% [ CITATION Yas06 \l 1033 ]. On the other hand forward curved blades are often used to deliver large
amounts of air flow with a small static pressure, but they have a lower maximum efficiency that range
from 60 to 68%. Therefore, a forward curved blade will have a lower rpm than the backward curved
blade. For this project application, forward curved fan blades were chosen to be a more suitable choice
considering the small static pressure of 0.5 inch of water column and a relatively high flow rate of 15,000
cubic feet per minute.

Fan selections
Considering the three constraint mentioned from previous sections, the team did an online search to
find suitable fans for the application. The first attempt was to select a single fan that operates under the
calculated air flow rate of 15,000 cubic feet per minute. shows the specification of the largest forward
curved blade fan available from Twin City corporation [ CITATION Twi12 \l 1033 ]. From , it was found
that a fan of 36.5 inches in diameter was required for the application. This diameter was within the size
constraint but it was located on the edge of the range. A low efficiency of 53% also indicated that the
fan was undersized and unstable during its operation. Therefore, smaller fans in parallel were more
preferable for such a condition.

With the parallel arrangement, the supply air flow rate was reduced from 15,000 cubic feet per minute
to 7,500 cubic feet per minute which then allowed us to select smaller and more efficient fans. below

other sub air handler units can be found in .

Air Quality
Fresh air and Air recirculated
The occupancy for each zone was observed and using Table 4-2 in (McQuiston, p 103) the required flow
rate per person was calculated. The required flow rate per person of fresh air changes depending on the
activity and functionality of each zone. Once the Required Fresh Air in flow rate was found the
percentages of how much air needed to be fresh with respect to the air flow requirement to that zone
was calculated. The results are shown in .

Table : The Amount of Recirculation air needed for Each Zone


Zone 7 and Zone 12 are ventilated so there is no recirculated air. Zone 9 and Zone 10 are going to
require 100% fresh air because of the functionality of the zone and the physical activity of the people.
The Radio Maintenance Rooms (Zone 11) require 20% of its total flow to be fresh air however due to the
quality of the air in the workshops all of the air will be exhausted and not recirculated back to the main
unit. The percent of Recirculated air from Zones 1-6 and Zone 8 gave a good approximation of how
much air was going to be mixed with the outside air. Mixing the recirculated air with the outdoor air
determines how large the cooling coil needs to be. An illustration of the state points on the
Psychometric Chart is found in .

Filters
With the amount of recirculation known the size of the filters were able to be calculated using a
pressure drop of 0.5 for each Plenum. Since all of the recirculation air from the zones are of similar
quality all of the filters can be assumed to be the same. The M-15 filter size 24 x 24 x 12 from Table 4-3
of (McQuiston, pg 111) was selected based on its performance and fitted into position A in our
recirculation line (McQuiston, pg 112). shows the result of the size of the M-15 for each plenum. The
recirculation ducting for the entire building is also shown in on the end of the report.

Table : Filter used During Recirculation in Each Plenum of HVAC System

Energy Consumption
Energy consumption was the final parameter to determine the efficiency of the whole HVAC system.
Low energy consumption is desired throughout the whole system to achieve maximum efficiency. In
summer, energy was consumed through cooling coils, fans and the mini splits in the common rooms. On
the other hand energy was consumed through radial heater, hydronic unit, Heating coils and fans. The
total energy consumed could be reduced by using recirculation to the main unit. This would results in a
smaller temperature difference in between the coils and therefore lower energy requirement. and
show the energy consumed during summer and winter conditions with and without recirculation.

Table : Total energy consumed during summer for peak load condition

Total with no circulation at peak load(tons) 24


Total with circulation at peak load (tons) 13
Energy Saved (%) 45
Average Load 6.6
Part Load 3.3

Table : Total energy consumed during winter for peak load condition

Total with no circulation at peak load(tons) 26


Total with circulation at peak load (tons) 13
Energy Saved (%) 48
Average Load 6.7
Part Load 3.3

From both tables, it can be seen that air recirculation saves almost 50% of the energy used in those
system without recirculation. The average load was estimated to be half of the peak load and therefore
only consumes half of the energy in the peak condition. In part load calculation, the only loads used in
the calculation are the main offices and the break room.

Conclusion
The Oklahoma Air National Guard Building located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma presented a lot of
unique and challenging problems from a HVAC design stand point. One of the main challenges was
analyzing the drastic changes in occupancy for full and part load conditions. The different functions of
zones and their locations in the building made it difficult to predict the necessary load requirements.
Despite the difficulties, the knowledge and experiences learned in this course gave us a good foundation
for making reasonable assumptions to provide respectable calculations and design for this HVAC system.
The heating and cooling loads were calculated using ASHRAE standards, and assuming worst case
scenarios. The maximum cooling load at peak conditions by our calculation was found to be 300,000
Btu/hr while the maximum heating load was found to be 173,000 Btu/hr. Therefore, this building the
dominant load is the cooling load. The air handling system including ducts, fans, and filters were found
using the flow rates needed to meet the cooling load demands for each zone. The ability to recirculate a
portion of the inside air allowed the system to be more efficient in comparison to a system that uses
only outside air. These savings will be appreciated by the customer for years to come.
