I. Summary
The purpose of a HVAC system is to provide a healthy and comfortable environment by
means of controlling humidity and temperature. Also, HVAC systems are responsible for
distributing this conditioned air to multiple locations at efficient rates. The majority of the
conditioned air can be recirculated into the desired locations, but a portion of the supply
air must be mixed with outside air to provide an ample supply of oxygen in this indoor
environment.

The main determinant of a HVAC system requirement is the total load for a given space.
These loads are not constant, but change with the amount of occupants, and with the
weather. Since temperature and humidity differ with seasonal changes, the HVAC system
must also be capable to adapt.

II. Problem

A new building is being added to a campus in New Orleans, LA. The building layout
information is given in the drawings provided, and the building spaces are shown in the
figures below. The set point temperature of each zone is 74 °F, 50% relative humidity, with
the assumption that required ventilation air for each zone is 25% of the total for that zone.
Even though it is not possible to maintain humidity at exactly 50% within each zone, it
should be in the comfort range.

The given loads in Table 1 are based on 95oF DB and 82oF WB conditions. The central
chiller plant must be capable of providing a maximum of 1000 tons of refrigeration, but will
be designed to be able to handle loads between 25% and 100% of maximum loads with
redundancy built in.

III. Zoning

For our design, we have completed the zoning and the thermodynamic analysis of the air
entering the AHU unit and going through the zones. We have decided to split up the
building into 13 different zones, as shown in the next pages. We have performed
calculations for these zones already, using an excel spreadsheet, as well as psychometric
analysis using psychometric tables. We have calculated mass flow rates necessary for the
next part of the project, which is to size, and layout the ducts. Additionally, we found the
total mass flow rate of the system, which is necessary to select an AHU. When splitting the
classrooms into each individual zone with its own VAV unit, we took into consideration
their sensible and latent loads. We decided to maintain every single classroom as its own
Zone, with its own VAV unit to ensure that the rooms were maintained at the right
temperature when occupied. Since classrooms are sometimes occupied at different times, it
didn’t make sense to group them in sets. Although adding an independent VAV unit for each
classroom makes the design and layout of the duct work more expensive, it benefits the
overall design by ensuring that one room is not freezing while the other is really hot. The
conference rooms were designed to be a single zone, since there are rarely used. Each office
was made into an independent zone, as they might be occupied at different times. Lavatory
M and Lavatory L are a single zone. The mechanical hallway, and the main hallway were
set to be a single zone.

Psychrometrics

The following psychrometrics treat the whole building as a single zone

Table 4: Psychrometrics for the whole building

Figure 13: Psychrometric Analysis Diagram

For the psychrometrics we proceeded by getting all the values for state 0 (Supply air). For
state 0, the values were obtained by using 95 F and 82 F and the psych app. State 3/4/5 all
have the same temperature as no thermodynamic process occurs between these states.
Additionally, the problem statement tells us that there is 50% Relative humidity after going
through each zone. State 1/0/5 undergoes a mixing process. We proceeded, by finding the
enthalpy, and relative humidity at state 1.

G r o u p I | 19

For state 1

For calculating Enthalpy at State 1
�1 = .75�5 + .25�0


�1 = .75(27.52) + .25(45.63)


�1 = 32.05 ���/��

For calculating Humidity Ratio at state 1
�1 = .75�5 + .25�0

�1 = .75(0.00893) + .25(0.0201)

�1 = 0.01187

For state 2

�� = ��� + ����

�� = 0.24 + (0.00893) (0.444)

�� = 0.244

Finding the heat transfer rate from state 2 to state 3 allows us to find the
temperature
�� = �̇���(�3 − �2)

220386 = 487916 ���/ℎ� + 0.244(�4 − �2)

�2 = 55 ℉

������ = �̇�(�3 − �2)

324201 = 487916

�2 = 20.58 ���/��
Using Enthalpy of state 2 and Tdb= 55F, gives the rest of the states' properties.

III. Duct Design and HVAC Components

The design for this entire system is based on how much energy is required for each room
or zone to be maintained at a specific temperature. Various environmental factors
influence this energy requirement such as the amount of people, building materials, and
outside weather conditions. The environmental factors add or remove heat to the system,
and therefore the HVAC system must compensate for these ever-changing conditions.
Ideally, each room would have its own unit and be able to maintain a specific desired
condition. Realistically, this scenario is not feasible, so the next alternative must be
considered. This consideration is a single air handler unit which supplied all the rooms
with conditioned air. Each room has a device to control the flow rate of air and effectively
is able to maintain specific conditions.

The total load seen below in Table 1 was found to be 324,000 Btu/hr, which equates to a
capacity of 27 tons. This load is based on key factors such as room size and the amount of
people in each room.

The mass flow rates for each room was calculated by dividing the sensible load by the
specific heat capacity for air, which is 0.24 Btu/lb°F, times a temperature difference of 20
°F. This 20°F temperature variant is the different in the inside and outside temperature.
Next we were able to calculate the volumetric flow rates by dividing the mass flow rate by
the density of air at 70 °F multiplied by 60.

G r o u p I | 21

Now that the volumetric flow rate is known, we can start designing the ductwork using
Revit. The key component to consider in the design of this duct system is noise from high
velocity flow rates. Large volumetric rates through small area ducts create this high
velocity noise-producing condition. Table 2 shows these calculated flow rates for each
room in the building.

The supply flow rates are what actually feed each zone, and the air handler must produce
this total amount of airflow, which is 10,203 cubic feet per minute. The unit must also be
able to carry a load of 27 tons or 324,000 Btu/hr. In addition, the air hander must
incorporate water for a transfer medium that is supplied by a chiller. This water circulates
in order to remove heat from the system.

The return volumetric flow rates are what the system recirculates or pulls from each zone.
This rate of flow is determined by the amount of fresh air to be applied to the system. The
fresh air to be added to the system is a percentage of the supply volumetric flow rate, and
in this case was 25% of that amount. The return flow rate is then calculated by subtracting
the fresh from the supply. Higher flow rates in the plenum above the hall area are
acceptable because the noise produced will be less noticeable due to movement in the hall.

G r o u p I | 22

With this in mind, flow velocities were kept below 1100 feet per minute in this main supply
line. For this desired quality to be met, the ducting was stepped down to smaller cross
sectional areas in order to keep velocities up as the supply line progressed to the opposite
end of the building. At the far end of the main supply line, the duct size was 28”x28” with a
flow velocity of 1100 feet per minute.

Variable air velocity equipment was used for each room in order to be able to maintain a
specific temperature, and offer efficiency. These pieces of equipment control the rate of
conditioned air entering each space by a thermostat controlling the fan speed inside of the
unit. The variable air velocity units in the hallways further reduce noise inside of each
conditioned zone. Flow velocity was also taken into consideration for the supply ducts
leaving the variable air velocity units, with the velocity goal to be under 650 feet per
minute. Table 3 shows gives the area verses velocity.

Table 7 shows each area’s ductwork with its specific size. As well as the velocity and area.

Some other special pieces of HAVAC equipment can be seen in the above figures. The
bottom right corner of Figure 15 shows a mixing unit connected to the system. The mixing
unit is responsible for allowing fresh air into the system, while removing the same amount
of return air from the system. This aspect of the HVAC is critical for healthy indoor air
because with a source of fresh air, air quality would become toxic. This scenario is not seen
in our homes because of small indoor space in conjunction with the opening and closing of
doors on a daily basis.

Another interesting aspect for the duct arrangement is what to do with the return air from
the lavatories. Obviously, bathroom air recirculated throughout the building is
unacceptable for health and comfort reasons. This issue is addressed by making the
returns for both lavatories exhaust outlets, which means the pressure created inside the
lavatory from the supply line is forced to the outside. This exhaust flow rate for the
laborites is small enough to dismiss for the fresh/exhaust calculations.

Return lines also had to be taken into consideration for sizing because of noise concerns
just like the supply lines. The diffusers for the return side were 24”x24” with 12”x12”
connections and are twice as large as the supply side diffusers. This obviously allowed for
the return side to use half of the amount of diffusers as compared to the supply side. The
flow rate for the return side was kept under 400 feet per minute by using 14”x14” duct
coming off the diffusers. The main return line is 30”x30” at the end, and 12”x12” at the
farthest run.

IV. AHU/Cooling Coil
Air Handling Unit
Cooling Coil
The design of the AHU (Air Handling Unit) cooling coil was the first step in selecting a unit
for this project. In order to select the unit, it was essential that the cooling coil’s dimensions
were known so that minimum physical requirements were set. There are two main cooling
coil configurations that are typically seen in the industry: direct expansion and chilled
water. The main difference between the two is that for a direct expansion configuration,
refrigerant is used in the cooling coil tubes as compared to water in the chilled water
system. For our project, it is specified that chilled water is supplied to the AHU from an
outside source, therefore, a chilled water cooling coil configuration is used. Figure 18,
below, shows a typical setup for a counter- flow cooling coil. It is common for coil systems
of three or more rows of tubes for counter-flow to be assumed (Page 505, “Enter book
reference).

Figure 18: Counter-flow Cooling Coil Setup
Before the calculation process could be carried out, a few design parameters had to be
chosen based upon typical industry standards. The table to follow shows the parameters
that were assumed at the beginning of the coil design process.
Table 11: Cooling Coil Design Parameters
Property: Value: Units:
Air Face Velocity 500 fpm
Water Velocity 4 fps
Water Pressure
Drop 17 ft
Tube OD 0.625 in
Tube ID 0.545 in
Tube Thickness 0.04 in
Xa 1.25 in
Xb 1.083 in
fin thickness (y) 0.006 in
fins/inch 10 in^-1

G r o u p I | 31

Air face velocities are usually within the range of 200-550 feet per minute (fpm). Velocities
over 500 can cause water droplets to leave outer edge of fin causing moisture carry over
which is when water droplets leave the outer edges of the fins. 500 fpm was chosen for this
design as this is the most commonly seen in chilled water systems [5].
The water velocity was chosen as 4 feet per second (fps) as these values are typically seen
in between 3-6 fps but do not exceed 8 fps. [5]
The max water pressure drop in the coil is about 25’ according to [5]. Typically, for chilled
water coils the WPD is between 15-20’. 17’ was arbitrarily chosen for the WPD in this
design.
Type L Copper was the material chosen in this design as it is the most common type of pipe
seen in chilled water systems. The size of this pipe is ½ inch. This size was not only just
common within most cooling coils but Figure 14-12 in textbook provides useful j-factor
and fin information that could not be located in other sources.
Using https://sizes.com/materials/pipeCopper.htms, the actual diameter for ½ type L
copper tubing is 0.625” with an inner diameter of 0.545” which leads to a thickness of
0.04”. The rest of the coil properties that were pre-determined in Table 11 were found
using the Figure below.

Figure 19: Fin and Heat Transfer Data for Cooling Coil
As it can be seen from the previous figure, the dimensions Xa and Xb, which represent the
vertical and horizontal distance between coil pipes, respectively, are provided. The
remaining fin and heat transfer can be found according to which fin pitch was chosen and
can be found in Table 12, below. Typical values for this range from 8 to 16 fins per inch. A
value of 10 was arbitrarily chosen and its corresponding values were interpolated
appropriately. A fin thickness of 0.006” is also found from Figure 19.

With all of the appropriate design assumptions made, the cooling coil calculations could
now be carried out. The first step in this process is to calculate the Reynolds number for the
water flowing through the coils. The equation to determine the Reynolds number is as
follows:
��
�=
��̅�
??????
(1)

In equation 1, � is the water density at 45 ᵒF, �̅ is the average water velocity, D is the inner
diameter, and ?????? is the dynamic viscosity of the water. With the Reynolds number
determined, the next property to calculate is the Prandtl number, which can be calculated
using equation 2.
��=
??????��
�
(2)

Using both the Reynolds number and Prandtl number, the convective heat transfer
coefficient can be determined. This is achieved using the following equation:
ℎ̅

where ℎ̅
??????is the convective heat transfer coefficient. The thermal conductivity (k) is based
off the same value used in the previous equations at 45 ᵒF.
�̇

Where Gc can be calculated by:
�
�=

��
??????
(5)

And, Gfr is found by the following equation,
�
��=�
���̅
�� (6)

Note: the subscript “fr” refers to face of the coil and “c” refers to the coil itself.
In the previous equations, �̇
� is the mass flow rate of the air, �
� is the mass velocity of the
minimum flow area, and ?????? is the ratio of minimum flow area to frontal area. As previously
mentioned, this value was obtained from Figure 19, where it was interpolated according to
the fin pitch assumed.
With the inner tube diameter accounted for, the outside tube diameter is focused on which
will allow working towards calculated the air side heat transfer coefficient.

G r o u p I | 33

The first step in this process is to find the Reynolds number for the incoming airflow. The
equation is as follows:
��
�=
���
??????
(7)

In the previous equation, the diameter used is the OD and the dynamic viscosity value is
that of air at a temperature of 45 ᵒF.
Equation 8, calculates the ratio of the total heat transfer area to the area of the bare, finless tubes.

Where Xa and Xb are the row height and width spacing found in Figure 19, respectively, and Dh
is the hydraulic diameter which can be found in Table 12. Remember, the hydraulic diameter
was determined using Figure 19. The value for this variable was determined according to the fin
pitch that was assumed.
In calculating the outside air heat transfer coefficient, the j-factor must be calculated. The j-factor
is read from Figure 20, but first the JP parameter must be calculated. The JP parameter is found
by:
��=��
�
−0.4
(
�
��
)
−0.15
(9)


Once the JP parameter was calculated, the j-factor could be evaluated using the figure below.
Using this value and fin pitch the j-factor determined was 0.007 (dimensionless).

Figure 20 Heat Transfer correlation for smooth plate-fin-tube coils
With the j-factor now found, the heat transfer coefficient of the air can now be solved for using
the following equation:

where Cp, is the specific heat of air and ℎ̅
� is the air heat transfer coefficient.
The next objective is to calculate the overall heat transfer coefficient. The first step in reaching
this value is to calculate the two dimensions: L and M. The equations for these two values
involve referring to the previously obtained Xa and Xb dimensions. L and M can be computed by:

Using the previously obtained dimensions L and M, the ?????? and � parameters can be found. The
equations for these two parameters are as followed:

??????=

�=

(14)

The variable “r” is the outer radius of the copper tubes.
Using the two previous found values, we can now calculate the ratio of the equivalent fin radius
to outer tube radius by the following equation:
��
�
=1.27??????(�−0.3)

where �
� is the equivalent fin radius.
The next parameter to be calculated is ∅, which is used in the calculation of fin efficiency. The
parameter can be calculated by:
∅=(
��
�
−1)[1+0.35ln (
�
�
�

Following this calculation, the final parameter, m, for the fin efficiency calculation can be found
using the following equation:
�=(
2ℎ̅
�
��

1/2
(17)

where y is the fin thickness which is found from Figure 19, and k is the thermal conductivity of
aluminum.
With the previous parameters calculated, the fin efficiency can now be found by:
ɳ=

��∅
(18)

G r o u p I | 35

The surface effectiveness can be calculated using the fin efficiency and the ratio,

be found in the graph. It is dependent on the fin pitch chosen in Figure 19. The equation for
surface effectiveness is as follows:
ɳ
��=1−
�
�
�
(1−ɳ) (19)

Before the overall heat transfer coefficient can be calculated, the ratio of the water-side to air-
side heat-transfer areas must be computed, which can be achieved by the following equation:
�
??????
��
=
��
??????
���

(20)

where Di is the inner tube diameter and � is a parameter found using Figure 19.

With all the necessary information needed to determine the overall heat transfer coefficient, the

(21)

Obtaining the overall heat transfer coefficient concludes the water to air cooling coil continuous
plate-fin-tube. The next step in the design process is to determine the geometric configuration of
the coil which requires the computation of the NTU and fluid capacity rates of the cooling coil.
The first step in the process of designing the geometric configuration of the coil is to determine
the mass flow rate of the air which can be determined by the equation to follow:
�̇
�=��̇ (22)

where � is the density of air and �̇ is the volumetric flow rate of the incoming air. The next
equation calculates the corrected, total heat transfer rate of the AHU. The equation for this is:
�̇
���=�̇
���(�
5−�
6) (23)

where �̇
��� is the total mass flowrate of all zones and i represents the enthalpy at states 5 and 6.
Using the corrected total load, both the heat capacity rate of air and water can be calculated using
the following equations:
�̇
���=�
�??????�(�
6−�
5) (24)


�̇
���=�
�(�
??????�−�
���) (25)

where T represents the temperatures at state 5, state 6, entering the coil, and leaving the coil, Cair
is the heat capacity rate of the air and is also equivalent to Cmin, and Cw is the heat capacity rate
of the water which is equal to Cmax.

G r o u p I | 36

The NTU can now be determined by using the ratio of the previously found heat transfer rates
and the effectiveness of the heat exchanger which is to be calculated. This involves using Figure
21, which provides the proper information needed to determine the NTU.
The effectiveness of the heat exchanger is the ratio of the actual heat transfer rate over the
maximum possible heat transfer rate. The equation for this is as follows:
??????=
�6−�5
�
??????�−����
(26)

Using this effectiveness value, the NTU can now be obtained using the following figure.

Figure 21: Effectiveness of Cross-flow Exchanger with Fluids Unmixed
Using the previously calculated values, the NTU was determined to be 0.48. This value is then
used to determine the overall heat transfer area. This is done by the following equation:
���=
����
�
�??????�
(27)

Once the area is found, the volume can be evaluated using:
�=
��
??????
(28)

As mentioned in the beginning of this section, the air face velocity was assumed previous to the
design calculation process. Using this value, the area of the face of the coil can be solved for
using:
�
��=
�̇
�̅
��
(29)

G r o u p I | 37

With this value calculated the next geometric property to be determined is the depth of the coil
which is computed using the following equation:
�=
�
�
��
(30)

The number of rows in the system can be determined as well using the length previously
determined and the horizontal distance between the tubes. The equation is as follows:
�
�=
�
??????�
(31)

The value of NR must be an integer and a multiple of two.
This concludes the design of the geometric configuration of the cooling coil. The next important
design parameter is to calculate the pressure loss that will occur for the air flow through the coil.
The first step is to calculate the following ratio:
�
��

??????�
??????�
��
(32)

The mean density is calculated next,
�
�=

(

where P is the atmospheric pressure and R is the heat exchanger parameter constant.
In order to calculate the pressure drop, the friction factor must be found. To find the friction
factor the parameter FP must be calculated. This can be done by the following equation:
��=��
�
−0.25

0.25
[

(34)

Using this value for FP along with the amount of fins per inch which was chosen before the
design calculations, the friction factor can be obtained from the following figure.

G r o u p I | 38


Figure 22: Heat Transfer Correlation for Smooth Plate-Fin-Tube Coils
From reading the graph, the friction factor for this design was chosen to be 0.025.
With the friction factor now known, the pressure drop can now be calculated. The equation for
the pressure drop is as follows:

where �
� is the gravitational constant, �
1 is the density of the air at the inlet, and �
2 is the air
density at the exit of the AHU.
This now completes the air side pressure loss calculations for the air handling unit. The next
series of calculations will determine the pressure loss in the tube side of the system. The first step
in this process is to determine the flow cross-sectional area of the water.
�=

(37)

The number of tubes can now be calculated for this AHU by using the following equation:
�
�=

��
??????

The value of this variable must be an integer. After the calculations were performed, this value
was determined to be 35.2 but rounded to 40. This effects the next equation which determines the
height of the cooling coil.
�=(������ �� �����)�
�=40�

The width of the coil is the next geometric property to be determined. This is done by the
following:

The length of the coil can now be determined,

�

where K is the loss coefficient associated with each bend and was predetermined before design
calculations to be 2.
In order to determine the lost head within the tubes, the Moody friction factor must be
determined. This can be done by using the friction factor and Reynolds number and reading the
following figure.

Figure 23: Moody Diagram for Pipe Flow Friction Factor

be determined:

The final stage of the design calculations involves calculating the water flow rate and rate of heat
transfer of water flowing through the coils.
The following equation will calculate the mass flow rate of water through the tubes:

Air Handling Unit
After all design calculations were performed for the AHU and cooling coil, the data was
analyzed and an air handling unit was chosen accordingly. The unit itself was chosen based
upon the entering and exiting air mass flowrates. For this design, the incoming volumetric
flow rate was calculated to be 10203.1 cubic feet per minute, and the exiting air volumetric
flowrate was found to be 7652.3 cubic feet per minute. Using the flowrates, an appropriate

Figure 24: Model of RT 26 Dunham-Bush Rooftop AHU


Figure 25: Interior Design of RT 26 Dunham-Bush Rooftop AHU
Dunham-Bush prides themselves on the excellent standard at which the outer casing of the
AHU is constructed. The AHU is designed to be protected from any water entry due to
weather. Standing flanges raise the unit 1” from the ground which eliminate the possibility
of any water entry from the ground level into the unit. The top panels are pitched to the
cabinet sides with no pockets to collect rain, and an overhang is installed on the unit so no
rainwater will drip onto the door tops. All exposed panels are constructed of 18-gauge steel
and are finished with climate proof coatings. The unit is ensured to be sealed with absolute
air tightness through the use of a gasket, which is closed cell foam. The cell foam method is
far superior to caulking and further ensures no heat loss will be experienced by the unit.
The modular interior design of the AHU, as seen in Figure 25, minimizes the static
pressure resistance due to its straight thru design that allows low velocity airflow through
the unit. This design is very versatile as there are a total of 22 possible modular sections
that can be selected.

The water cooled coils come with the following options: (The bolded options represent the
values calculated for this design)
Material: Type 5 Copper
O.D.: 0.625”
Rows: 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10
Fins Per Inch: 6, 8, 10, 12, 14
A picture of the cooling coil for the chosen AHU is in the following figure.

Figure 26: Cooling Coil System for RT 26 AHU

With unit size chosen, the coil face area is given as 25.5 ��
2
. This is a good size unit because
the calculated area needed for the designed coil from calculations was 20.4 ��
2
.
The next component that was chosen based off of the previous design calculations was the
supply fan. The supply fan was designed to handle an incoming air flow rate of 10203.1
cubic feet per minute with a total static pressure loss of 0.5 inches of water. The fan was
chosen from the following table:

G r o u p I | 44

Table 17: Supply Fan Table Provided by Dunham-Bush

As seen in the above table, the chosen fan for this design is a 4.22 BHP, 575 RPM size 500
forward curved fan. The forward curved fans come with an adjustable fan/motor base. The
motor and drive are all built into a fan and motor sub-assembly. Only 1 supply fan is used
in the AHU which give the unit a very quiet performance with low energy consumption.
The figure below depicts a forward curved fan:

Figure 27: Model of a Forward Curved Fan
The last component chosen for the calculated design parameters is the return fan. The fan
was designed for a flow rate of 7652.3 cubic feet per minute and the same pressure loss.
The return fan was picked according to the smallest possible fan that could be found. The
fan was chosen from the table to follow.

G r o u p I | 45

Table 18: Return Fan Table Provided by Dunham-Bush

As seen above, the chosen fan has an rpm of 595 and brake horsepower of 3.04. The fan
type is a size 450 forward curved fan.

Overall, the components picked for the AHU closely match the values received during the
design calculation process. When assembled, the AHU system should provide good
performance and quality, cooled airflow to the school building.

V. Hydronics

The hydronic system is responsible for transporting chilled water from the condenser to
the air handling unit (AHU), returning heated water from the AHU back to the condenser,
and transporting heated water from the evaporator to the cooling tower, as well as
returning the cooled water from the tower back to the evaporator.


The piping chosen for the hydronic system is schedule 40 commercial steel pipe. The
calculated values for each of the piping systems is presented in Tables 1 through 3 below.
The tables present the flow rates, pipe size, and losses for pipe lengths, fittings and valves.
The resources used in the calculations came from McQuiston’s Heating, Ventilating and Air
Conditioning, 6

edition, and follow the tables.

The chilled water supply traveling from the chiller plant to the AHU consists of two loops,
primary and secondary. The primary pumping system services the return water from the
AHU to the chillers. The secondary pumping system services the AHU of the new building
with the chilled water and returns it back to the chilled water return header. The primary
and secondary pumping systems will each have two pumps piped in such a fashion as to
allow either redundancy, maintenance or demand.

VI. Chiller Plant

The chiller system works as refrigeration cycle. Figure 1 is a diagram of the refrigeration
cycle for fluid 134-A. From Process 1-2 Isentropic compression takes place. The fluid leaves
the evaporator at state 1 in a low pressure state, and flows through the compressor and
becomes super-heated fluid. During Process 2-4, the refrigerant flows at constant pressure
from the compressor into the condenser where heat is rejected from the system. The
refrigerant fluid then exits the condenser during state 3, and enters the throttling valve at
state 4. During this process, Process 3-4, the refrigerant ends in a two-phase liquid vapor
mixture. Process 4-1 is the final process of the cycle where the refrigerant flows at
constant pressure through the evaporator.

For this project we proceeded to select a Chiller that would meet the requirements of 1000
Tonnage specified by the problem statement, and provide the 45
o
F required for the AHU
unit. Additionally, we designed a chiller system that would meet the requirements. For the
design we ignored the losses caused by entropy. The chiller system was analyzed as an
ideal-vapor compression cycle.

Figure 40: Direct Expansion Chiller Schematic

The figure above, shows the layout of the chiller system used in this project. The Primary
supply loop refers to the water going to the hydronic system.

Hand calculations were performed to determine the required refrigerant temperatures, the
mass flow rate of water, and the mass flow rate of the refrigerant, needed to meet the
requirements set by the AHU to satisfy the sensible and latent loads of each room in the
building. The 1000 Tonnage requirement set by the problem statement was also
considered. The process of finding the specified values is shown below:

The chiller we have selected is from Trane can provide the 1000 Tonnage needed to fulfill
the system requirements. We have decided to go with two units of CVHF-080L-142L/IECU,
so that there is redundancy in case one of them shuts off the HVAC system won’t stop
working. This specific water chiller we picked meets the requirements for the AHU water
flow rate, with a minimum flow rate of 1135 GPM Additionally, it has the required
temperatures towards the AHU unit of 45 F, and it meets the requirements for the cooling
tower. For purpose of redundancy we have decided to use to Chiller Plants working at
34.58% percent each. The selected Chillers work with a tonnage range of 1000-1300.

Additionally, from selecting a chiller, we have decided to design one. For the design chiller
we used a similar approach to the first project.

The first calculation is the tube clearance. This is the clearance between adjacent tubes. The
equation to calculate this value is as followed:
�=�
�−��
� (50)
Where Pt is the tube pitch and ODt is the outer diameter of the tube. The tube pitch for our
design was chosen as a square pitch. This means that if you were to look at a cross sectional
view of the tubes, they would be arranged in square patterns.
The next parameter to calculate is the baffle spacing, which can be calculated as followed:
�=
�
��+1
(51)
Where L is the length of the tubes and NB is the number of baffles within the heat exchanger
which is user defined. The more baffles within a heat exchanger increases the effectiveness
because it improves heat transfer. The improved heat transfer is due to the more resistance
the incoming water encounters as it passes through the heat exchanger. This gives the
water a more directed path and allows it to better transfer heat between the tubes.
With the baffle spacing and clearance calculated, the flow area within the shell can be
calculated as:

G r o u p I | 63

�
�=
����
��
(52)
Where Ds is the user defined shell diameter, C is the clearance previously calculated, B is the
baffle spacing also previously calculated, and Pt is the user defined tube pitch.
The tube flow area can be calculated as followed:
�
�=
���(��
�

)
4��
(53)
Nt is the number of tubes within the exchanger which is reliant upon the shell diameter and the
number of passes. IDt is the inner tube diameter which is user defined along with Np which is
the number of passes.
With the flow areas calculated, the shell and tube velocities can now be found:
�
�=
�̇
�
���
(54)
Where ms is the water flow rate into the shell, � is the density of the water, As is the flow area of
the water into the shell.
The flow velocity can also be calculated for the tube fluid as followed:
�
�=
�̇
�
���
(55)
Where mt is the mass flow rate of the refrigerant passing through the tubes, � is the density of the
vapor within the two phase flow of refrigerant, and At, as previously defined, is the tube flow
area.
The next value to calculate is the equivalent diameter. The calculation of this value depends on
the pitch chosen, triangular or square. For our design, as previously mentioned, a square pitch
was chosen. Therefore, the calculation is as followed:
�
�=
4��
2
−�??????(���
2
)
�??????(���)
(56)
Where Pt is the tube pitch and ODt is the outer diameter of the tubes.
The next value to calculate are the Reynolds number for the shell and tube. These are calculated
using the following formulas:
��
�=
������
??????
(57)
And,
��
�=
�����
??????
(58)
Where Ret is the Reynolds number for the tube and Res is the Reynolds number for the shell. For
the tube, Vt is the tube fluid velocity, IDt is the inner tube diameter, � is the density of the
refrigerant vapor, and ?????? is the dynamic viscosity of the vapor. For the shell Reynolds number, Vs
is the fluid in the shell, De is the equivalent diameter, � is the density of the water, and ?????? is the
dynamic viscosity of the water within the shell.
The Nusselt number is then calculated after the Reynolds number. The shell side is the easier
calculation and is found using the following equation:
��
�=
ℎ���
�
�
=0.36��
�
0.55
��

3 (59)
Where ho is the heat transfer coefficient in the tube, De is the equivalent diameter, and kf is the
thermal conductivity.

 ?????? = dynamic viscosity of R-134a (Liquid)
 �

 C1 = 8.2*10

 L = length of tube
 g = gravity

The Nusselt Number for the condenser is calculated differently than for the evaporator. This
equation depends on the value for the Reynolds number. The parameters for choosing the
equation can be seen in the problem statement. Since our Reynolds number was greater than
10,000, the equation used was:

Where hi is the heat transfer coefficient for the tube, ht is the heat transfer coefficient for the
evaporator, and ho is the heat transfer coefficient for the condenser.

Nu is the Nusselt number for the appropriate component, tube or shell. K is the thermal
conductivity of either the fluid in the tube or shell, De is the equivalent diameter, ODt is the
outside tube diameter, and IDt is the inside tube diameter.

With the individual heat transfer coefficients solved for, the overall heat transfer coefficient can
now be calculated.

����

Where Nt is the number of tubes, ODt is the outer tube diameter, and L is the length of the pipes.

The NTU (number of transfer units) can now be solved for. This involves the minimum heat
capacitance rate, Cmin, the heat transfer area, Ao, and the overall heat transfer coefficient, Uo.

���=

(67)

Now, we start to calculate our goal design values: effectiveness, outlet temperature, and pressure
drop.

The effectiveness can be calculated using the following equation:

Where C is a constant that is set to zero because of the presence of two phase flow.

The exit temperature of the water leaving both the evaporator and condenser can be
calculated by:

�
�,���= ??????(�
�134�− �
�,??????�)+ �
�,??????� (69)
Where tw is the temperature of the water. TR134a is the temperature of the refrigerant, and e
is the effectiveness.
Lastly, the pressure drop can be calculated. First the friction factor must be calculated
which can be done using the chen equation:
�=(

Where e in this case is the roughness of the material. Since we specified that the tube
material was carbon steel, the roughness was selected to be 0.00015. This allowed the
relative roughness (e/D) to be calculated using the specified absolute roughness value and
the value of the shell diameter. By using this method, the use of the Moody diagram is
eliminated and a more accurate friction factor can be used. The only other variable in this
equation is Re which is the Reynolds number in the tube.
With the friction factor calculated, the pressure drop within the tube can now be found
using the following equation:

For the cooling tower we used the mass flow rate of determined from the thermodynamic
analysis as previously shown in the report. By finding our mass flow rate and using the
temperatures determined by the chiller we selected. With the specifications of 85 F and 95
F and a mass flow rate of 1,415,958.522 lbm/hr. We were able to plug in those values into
Baltimore’s Air Coil Company’s software to select a cooling tower.

VIII. Air Cooled Condenser
The air cooled condenser will serve to reject the heat gained from the building into the
atmosphere. It is an alternative to using a regular water cooled chiller with a cooling tower.
Using an air cooled condenser will eliminate the need for a cooling tower entirely, therefore
saving space and water consumption. However, the lower heat transfer capabilities of air in
comparison to water mean that the system is less efficient than a cooling tower setup. Therefore,
the air cooled condenser setup will require more power than the cooling tower setup would to
remove the same amount of heat from the refrigerant.
The air cooled condenser operates by having the refrigerant’s temperature raised through the
compressor, similarly to the water cooled setup. It then enters the condenser at 125°F where it
runs through the condenser tubes and is cooled by a fan moving air over the tubes at 325000 cfm.
The refrigerant then exits the condenser at 115°F where it then moves through a throttling valve
to lower its temperature back to the required 45°F for the air handling unit.
The condenser uses ¾ in Type K copper tubing with copper fin attachments for increased heat
transfer area. The design values for the air cooled condenser are shown below in tables 30-32.

The calculation procedure for the design of the air cooled condenser is shown below.
To begin, the inlet and outlet temperatures for both fluids were chosen. The air was chosen at
95°F inlet as that is the temperature for a typical summer day in southern Louisiana. The
refrigerant was chosen to be 125°F at the inlet so as to always be above the air temperature.

G r o u p I | 74

The temperature difference for both fluids was chosen to be 10°F as this is a typical design value
for a cross flow heat exchanger.
The required heat transfer for the condenser was already known before the design, so the mass
flow rate for the refrigerant could be calculated using equation 78 below.
�̇
�=�̇/�
��∆�
� (78)
Where �̇
�is the mass flow rate of the refrigerant, �̇ is the heat transfer of the condenser, �
�� is
the specific heat of the refrigerant, and ∆�
� is the temperature difference of the refrigerant
between he inlet and outlet of the condenser.
Next the log mean temperature difference is calculated using equation 79 below.
����=

??????−∆��
ln (∆�
??????−∆��)
(79)
After this a value for U, the overall heat transfer coefficient, is assumed in order to calculate the
total heat transfer area that is required. The value of U will be iterated to produce a valid result.
The calculation for the heat transfer area is shown below in equation 80.

�=

Next the tube dimensions are chosen in order to calculate the single tube and fin surface area,
which is used to calculate the required number of tubes. This is all shown below in equations 81
and 82.

Where �

and � is the fin height.
�

�� (82)
Next, the Tube velocity must be found as it needs to be within the typical design value of 2-5
ft/s. This was done by first choosing the inner tube diameter so as to find the tube’s flow area,
which is then used to find the velocity. This is shown below in equations 83 and 84.

Where �
� is the fin diameter, �
� is the number of fins per inch, �
� is the fin width at the base,
and �

Next, the Reynolds number for the air side must be calculated. This is shown in equation 87

Where ��
�� is the Reynold’s number for the flow of air outside the tubes, and ??????

The Reynolds number is then used in conjunction with a tabulated Prandtl number to calculate
the Nusselt number for the flow outside the tubes. This is shown in equation 88.

outside heat transfer coefficient.
��=

Where h is the heat transfer coefficient and k is the thermal conductivity.
Next, the inside heat transfer coefficient was found through an empirical relation shown below in

�� is the temperature difference between the inlet and outlet for the
refrigerant, �

The design values in the previous tables were found by iterating the dimensions for the fins and
tubes, the assumed overall heat transfer coefficient which is used to determine a surface area, as
well as the flow rate for the air.

In order to meet the building’s required load, the following air cooled condenser was selected. It
is a CAUJC60G20002 Trane 60-ton Air Cooled Condenser. A picture of it is shown below in
Figure 1.

Figure 43: Trane CAUJC60G20002 Air cooled Condenser.

It is able to provide the 512860 BTU/hr needed to keep the refrigerant temperature where it
needs to be. It also uses less air and is about 3 feet less in length than the design specifications. It
is also capable of operating within any ambient temperature ranges that would present
themselves within southern Louisiana, with ambient entering air temperatures up to 115 °F. It
also has similar head losses to the design specifications, with head losses of 5 to 10.9 ft of head
depending on the flow rate. It also comes with variable air volume controls as an option, for
when it doesn’t need to operate at full capacity.

X. Conclusions


The overall process of designing the HVAC System started with the zoning and
psychometrics of each room. The psychometrics were performed using the psych app, an
excel spreadsheet and the psychometric charts. The sensible, and latent loads were
provided for each space by the problem statement. The next step from the psychometrics
was to determine the velocities, and flow areas in order to create the ductwork. For the
ductwork, we used the software Revit. The Revit outputted the necessary diameters for the
return and supply ductwork. Thermodynamic analysis was for performed the whole
building to determine the required temperatures and specifications of the AHU. Before the
calculation process was carried out, a few design parameters had to be chosen based upon
typical industry standards.

After we determined the required temperatures needed for the Air Handling Unit, we were
able to determine the required mass flowrates needed from the chiller plant. After that we
were able to design hydronic system that connected the chiller plant with the Air handling
unit.

For the hydronic system we ended up selecting 2 pumps that will make the water flow from
the chiller to the AHU. The primary pump will cycle water through the chiller, while the
secondary pump will supply the AHU. There are two of each pump to allow redundancy in
case of failure or service. The primary pumps have a flow rate of 2400gpm and the
secondary has a 103 gpm flowrate. They both run with a motor speed of 1760 rpm. The
chiller to cooling tower loop also has redundancy with both pumps being able to handle the
full load independent of the other. The flow rate of the cooling tower loop pumps is 2900
gpm, with a motor speed of 1760 rpm..

For the chiller plant, we first started with a thermodynamic analysis to determine the
specifications for the chiller plant. Once we calculated, the mass flow rate of the refrigerant
134-A, along with the temperatures, we selected 2 chiller plant from TRANE. Each chiller
has a capacity of 1300 Tons. However, we will be running each one at 500 tons to meet the
1000 tonnage max requirement. Overall, each chiller plant will be running at 38.5% of
there full capacity. Alternatively, we designed a chiller plant using the spreadsheet from

After that, with the specifications of 85 °F and 95°F and a mass flow rate of 1,415,958.522
lbm/hr., we inputted those values into the Baltimore Air Coil Company software to
determine the specifications of the cooling tower. The efficiency of the cooling tower was
calculated to be 76.923%.

As an alternative we had selected to use air cooled condenser. The unit would rest on the
rooftop of the building and supply the 512860 BTU/hr needed to keep the refrigerant at the
required temperature
