9. Low mixing Diffusers Displacement ventilation

12. Diffuser Selection Procedure Select and locate diffusers, divide airflow amongst diffusers V = maximum volumetric flow rate (m 3 /s, ft 3 /min) Q tot = total design load (W, BTU/hr) Q sen = sensible design load (W, BTU/hr ) ρ = air density (kg/m 3, lbm/ft 3 ) Δt = temperature difference between supply and return air (°C, °F) Δh = enthalpy difference between supply and return air (J/kg, BTU/lbm)

13. Find Characteristic Length (L)

14. Indicator of Air Distribution Quality ADPI = air distribution performance index Fraction of locations that meet criteria: -3 °F < EDT < 2 °F or -1.5 °C < EDT < 1 °C Where, EDT = effective draft temperature Function of V and Δt (Eqn 18.1) EDT=(t local -t average )-M(V local -V average ), M=7 °C/(m/s) ADPI considers ONLY thermal comfort (not IAQ)
