Journal of the Indian institute of architects :(JIIA)Summary: With growing temperatures and extreme weather conditions, air-
conditioning has become a necessity rather than a luxury. However,
with air-conditioning contributing to almost 40% of a building’s
overall power requirement, it becomes essential to select energy-
efficient systems as well as equipment. Indoor air quality (IAQ) has
also become an integral part of air-conditioning as more and more
people are spending over 90% of their time indoors. Since AHUs
and chillers are an integral part of any central air-conditioning
system. It is vital to design energy efficient AHUs, chillers, and
heat recovery systems employing various components for energy
recovery. The energy-efficient equipment can be provided inside
the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system to
maintain the IAQ and thermal comfort for the occupants of the
indoor space. Current climate control systems frequently depend
on building occupancy to maintain proper temperatures. However,
rooms are commonly unused and may be heated or cooled
inefficiently. Intelligent HVAC system control may enable large
energy savings by detecting occupancy and accurately predicting
usage trends. This paper will discuss various HVAC approaches
with new techniques and control systems that can be used to
increase energy efficiency for a building while also improving
indoor air quality and occupant thermal comfort.
