3 Introduction
4 Introduction High sidewall diffusers ASHRAE provides design guidelines for acceptable performance in cooling applications No guidelines exist for heating applications Laws of physics suggest that poor performance can be due to: High outlet air temperature Low outlet velocity Floor diffusers Identical design guideline issues Laws of physics help overcome low velocity heating issues, but high outlet temperatures can still lead to stratification
5 Introduction Thermal Comfort Standards ASHRAE Standard 55 Not intended to measure the thermal comfort performance Doesn t stipulate room-to-room temperature differences Time is not a criterion ACCA Manual J Room-to-room variation 2 F Ideal, 4 F Allowable No protocol for measurement ASHRAE Standard 113 Air Diffusion Performance Index ADPI Evaluates thermal comfort performance within single room Criteria include space and time
6 Introduction Thermal Comfort Performance Index (TCPI) Application of ASHRAE Standard 55 criteria Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) - ±0.5 (90% satisfied) Neutral comfort conditions Summer: 23.9 C, 50% RH, room air velocity of 0.1 mps, Clothing factor (CLO) = 0.51, metabolic rate (MET) = 1.3 Winter: 21.0 C, 40% RH, room air velocity of 0.1 mps, Clothing factor (CLO) = 1.0, metabolic rate (MET) = 1.3 Measurement protocol modified Standard hour evaluation period PMV calculated every minute TCPI = % of measurements that satisfy criteria Local discomfort (stratification) also evaluated

35 Conclusions High sidewall supply air outlets provide slightly better thermal comfort performance than the floor diffusers for both heating and cooling operation. Reduced head-to-toe temperature stratification More uniform room-to-room temperatures TCPI of the floor diffuser system was noticeably worse at extremely cold outdoor temperatures. Cooling TCPI of both systems similar High stage = 95% Low stage = 82% Cooling stratification is noticeably better (lower) in the high sidewall system and is well within the acceptable ASHRAE limit of 3.0 C for both systems.
36 Conclusions Additional fan operation Reduces stratification High stage heating both systems Medium stage heating high sidewall system only Virtually no difference Low stage heating both systems Cooling performance stratification Floor diffuser system slightly worse (higher) Both systems were well within acceptable limits Fan operation continuous vs. cyclical Slightly better whole-house temperature uniformity during highstage cooling in high sidewall application
37 Conclusions Thermostat location Multi-point strategy provided better whole-house comfort than a single-point strategy for both systems, both modes, and all stages.
