High rise, low energy
Logan, S
High rise, low energy - 2002 - Building Services Journal March 2002, 40-45(5) .
Discusses how services engineers can influence the energy impact of high rise buildings, and argues that tenants should also be educated in how to maintain low energy buildings. Considers the role of developers and the project elements they can influence. Looks at the purpose of air conditioning, discussing five main systems based on a 30-storey office: fan coil units, VAV (variable air volume), displacement ventilation with chilled ceilings, mixed-mode ventilation, and natural ventilation. Concludes with a brief look at energy saving lighting design. Graphs. Figure.
