Description
In laboratories, the use of active chilled beams, also called induction diffusers, allows designers to decouple ventilation requirements from sensible heating and cooling functions. If applied carefully and thoughtfully, this strategy can dramatically reduce both reheat energy and air-handling system size. In a recent laboratory project where active chilled beams were used, the size of outside air handlers and ductwork was reduced by 40%, and reheat was eliminated completely.
