Parameter |
Description |
Include Cooling System |
Includes the cooling system in the energy calculations |
Primary System |
|
Coverage |
Displays the percentage of the building that is cooled by the primary cooling system based on whether there is a secondary system and what its coverage percentage is. If there is no secondary system, the primary system automatically covers 100%. |
System |
Select a cooling category, and then a certified cooling system. The system list can be modified; see Specifying System Sets. |
Additional Air Change Rate |
When an additional centralized ventilation system is installed, select this option to match the required demand, and specify the air change rate |
Humidification/Dehumidification |
When either humidification or dehumidification is part of the cooling system, select this option and select a system. The system list can be modified; see Specifying System Sets. |
Secondary System |
To include a secondary system, set a coverage value other than 0 (zero) percent |
Coverage |
Indicates the percentage of the building that is cooled by the secondary system |
System |
Select a secondary cooling category, and then a certified cooling system. The system list can be modified; see Specifying System Sets. |
Include Cooling Distribution System |
Includes the cooling distribution system in the energy calculations; the cooling system must already be included |
System |
Select a cooling distribution system. The system list can be modified; see Specifying System Sets. |
Automatic Ductwork Length Estimation Based on Building Type and Size |
Select this option to automatically estimate the distribution system’s ductwork length based on the building information |
Manual Ductwork Length |
Select this option to manually enter the duct length value |
