Chilled Beam system is the kind of water-air system which reduces the conveyance energy for air conditioning as well as allows efficient installation and comfortable indoor environment, and has been increasingly popular mainly in Europe. To effectively install such Chilled Beam system domestically, it is necessary to develop the product considering domestic climatic condition and the requirements for air conditioning system, and particularly the way to deal with condensation during operation of cooling system in summer shall be provided. In this study, the optimal design on induction structure of Chilled Beam unit was carried out through a numerical method, and the performance test for the prototype of unit was conducted in a real-scale experiment facilities of Chilled Beam unit. While the flowrate of 1st air is 101.3 CMH, the pressure in pressure chamber is 158.7 Pa and the cooling capacities of 1st air side and 2nd air side are 498.1 W and 709.5 W respectively.

Since a chilled beam system can reduce the conveyance energy for air conditioning and has many advantages in terms of constructability and indoor environment, its supply has been rapidly expanding mainly in Europe. For this chilled beam system to be effectively available in Korea, a product suitable for the domestic climatic environment and HVAC system operating conditions needs to be developed. Also, domestic products need to have an edge in cost competitiveness compared to overseas products. In this study, the induction structure of a chilled beam is deduced and an analysis on the induction performance is carried out while the chilled beam system that meets domestic situations is in the process of development.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the energy performance by applying new technologies for passive and active control. Method: We selected new technologies for passive and active control which are based on formal study by analyzing technology applied to the High-Performance Buildings in various countries. Also, we analyzed energy saving potential for each technologies by breakdown the result of the energy saving rates in detail. Result: For the wall and roof insulating methods, preceding studies showed that up to 21% energy could be saved by improving roof insulation and applying proper outside insulation compared to non-insulation. For the windows and glazing system, preceding studies showed that Low-E glazing system could save up to 11% energy compared to single glazing system. Studies about solar and daylighting controls revealed that effective daylighting dimming control could save 13% of energy compared to uncontrolled situation. Studies on DOAS (Dedicated Outdoor Air System) showed that about 23% energy could be saved compared to standard VAV system. Studies on the active chilled beam showed that about 25% energy could be saved compared to standard VAV system and studies of applying UFAD (Under Floor Air Distribution) could consume 31% less energy than applying overhead system.
