There is accumulation of CO2 in the air conditioned spaced over a period of time if the room is not well ventilated.
This accumulation of CO2 can be the cause of following:
- Suffocation, Discomfort, Sick building syndrome (SBS) symptoms
- Risk of allergic manifestations among children
- Poor sleep quality and a reduced next-day performance
- Yawn/ Lethargic feeling.
I want to work on the ventilation of air conditioned space in accordance to indian climatic condition (where inlet-outlet temperature difference in summers goes up to 34 degree celsius).
with increase in temperature the cooling load is increased but our system does not care about ventilation.
Is there any ventilation strategy which can be applied so that the CO2 level in the occupied space can be brought to acceptable limits with minimum energy consumption?
Thanks!
Take a simpler path: install a CO2 filter in the air conditioner
Usually carbon dioxide build up is associated with split direct expansion units where there is no access to fresh air but normally in central chilled water system fresh ia introduced in the conditioned space according to the type of application. For example in hospitals sick people wards 100% fresh air is introduced . For each situation there is a quantity of fresh air which needs to be injected as per people requirements. You may consult ASHRAE books to see these requirements for the different applications.
Thanks you Miquel Angel Rodriguez Arias.
Can you share any literature on CO2 filter which can be used for my project?
Thanks!
Thank you Kamal Nasreldin Abdalla Sir for replying!
As per your suggestion I shall go through the ASHRAE books for the different indoor status.
