Description

The Empire of the Penguin is an immersive dark ride and penguin exhibit at SeaWorld in Orlando, Fla. The project won first place in ASHRAE's Technology Awards existing commercial buildings category. Guests enter the facility through a pre-show theater, pass into a rock and ice themed queue, and exit the queue through a small “ice den” to load onto a unique trackless ride system. The vehicles move through various scenes, including a large theater space, ending at an unload platform inside the frozen penguin exhibit. The adventure concludes in an underwater viewing area. Animal comfort and health were the main key performance indicators for the design of the HVAC system with indoor air quality being the most critical.
