AttendanceWhich civilization made it a point to layout whole cities to take advantage of passive heating? In what direction did the city streets run?

A. GreeceB. RomeC. EgyptD. PersiaE. Babylonia

AttendanceThe ancient Greeks did this. What was shown is Priene (Priēnē); (5th Century B.C.), which had all of the streets laid out in an East-West fashion, thus allowing all homes to point South.

Attendance

“Only primitives and barbarians lacked knowledge of houses turned to face the winter sun, dwelling beneath the ground like swarming ants in sunless caves.”Aeschylus

Page 6: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

Aeschylus

Greetings Capt.

Kirk

Page 7: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

AttendanceAeschylus pronounced Ess ca less

One of the earliest writer of Greek tragedy – before him plays had single actors who could only respond to a chorus (group of people). Aeschylus increase the tragedy to two actors with dialog.

What You Need To KnowThe difference between ventilation and infiltrationCalculation methods for both ventilation and infiltration

Page 12: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

What You Need To Be Able To Do

Calculate infiltration/ventilation loadsBe able to reduce/mitigate infiltration and ventilation loadsEmploy techniques for increasing ventilation effectiveness

TermsInfiltrationExfiltrationVentilationDirect Outside Air System (DOAS)

Page 14: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

Infiltration

“The uncontrolled introduction of outside air into a building.”

Page 15: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

Infiltration

The uncontrolled introduction of fresh air into a building.

1. Most subjective of all losses2. Oftentimes the largest of all heat losses.

Sometimes comprises up to 30% of the total

heating load.3. Ends up being an “educated guess”

Page 16: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

Why Is This Important?All buildings leakA tight building will leak .5 AC/HA leaky building can leak 3 AC/HRegardless of climate, air leaking into walls causes problems

Page 17: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

VentilationThe mechanical introduction of outside air (OA) to: Replace Oxygen Dilute contaminants Pressurize the building

Infiltration Calculation Methods

Crack methodAir Change Method‘Averaging’ method (‘I don’t know so I’m going to throw a dart’ method)

Page 20: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

Crack MethodPresumes that an accurate estimate can be obtained by estimating the rate of infiltration per foot of crack for doors and windows

CFM = Ft. of Crack x Infiltration Rate

QS = 1.1 x CFM x (T2 – T1) in BTU/HR

Page 21: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

Add Infiltration Through Open Door

Determine Door Usage Number of People per Minute = תDetermine CFM per person (D)

CFM = ת x D LEED-NC Credit EQ 5 for providing vestibules.

Page 22: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

Infiltration by Crack Method

Add CFM from Crack losses to CFM for Open Door losses

Page 23: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

Mitigate These LossesHow do you reduce or mitigate these losses?

(Review)

Page 24: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

Mitigation StrategiesPressurization

QS = 1.1 x CFM x (T2 – T1)

Vs.

QS = 1.1 x (CFH/ft of crack x ft of crack)/60 x ΔT

You own the variables!

Stack EffectReview

Page 27: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

Air Change MethodOften used in residential construction and in large warehouses and similar buildings

CFM = A.C.H. x Volume (ft3)/60or

CFM = Volume (ft3)/Frequency (minutes)

Page 28: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

Air Change MethodUses same formula for sensible

Equals one room changeDesigner will use 0.3 to 2.0 air changes per hour (ACH) Occupancy Climatic condition (i.e. winter vs. summer) Construction (tight or loose)

Least accurate of the three methods

Qsens = 1.1 x CFM x T

Heat Loss Due to Infiltration

Infiltration Btu H = (.018) x (ACH) x V x (Ti –

To)ACH = air exchanges per hourV = volumeTi = inside temperature To = outside temperature

Page 32: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

Heat Loss Due to InfiltrationInfiltration Btu H = 1.1 x CFM x (Ti – To)CFM = (ACH x volume) / 60 min per

hour

Page 33: Heating Losses- Infiltration and Ventilation

Heat Loss Due to InfiltrationInfiltration Please Note: For tight construction use 0.5 for ACH.For medium construction use .85 for ACH.For loose construction use 1.3 for ACH.For really bad construction use 2.0 for ACH

For the summer months (cooling) use 70% of the winter values.
