Recently, the air pollution have bad effects on the indoor environment. Many buildings around the world use natural ventilation. to remove the air pallutant. But, nowadays, ventilation requirements can be demanding, as modern systems require greatly improved reliability and control. The fan and the duct are used to remove air mechanically from the space. Until now, apartment houses have been relying on the duct supply system ventilation rather than other system ventilations. Therefore, the establishment of a prediction method based on optimal ventilation energy consumption using duct supply system and ductless is the ultimate goal of this study. As a result, this study found that the characteristics of duct and ductless supply system ventilation are dependent to each exhaust system. Consequently, the local supply indices of the duct supply system is definitely superior about 24.6% ~ 26.4 % than those of ductless supply system. However, the duct supply system has greater pressure drop in ventilation area than ductless, and duct system needs a lot of ventilation energy. In this study, The ductless supply system has advantage over the duct system about 14.8 % as duct exhaust system and 20.0% as ductless exhaust system in terms of modified local supply indices.
A study on ventilation design using the spreadsheet model is carried out to propose means of available design. A sample of complex ventilation system in the non-standard condition is used to illustrate this spreadsheet model.
In developing the spreadsheet model, this study has attempted to it general by using computional equations and design parameters that can be readily applied to any spreadsheet software. Also, most design data is contained in the spreadsheet template. This template provides the same design information as the ACGIH worksheet, and operates quickly and efficiently, and is flexible enough to use under different conditions.
spreadsheet model allows the ventilation engineer to design quickly and accurately the ventilation system, without spending too much effort in the design process.
By storing on computer and diskette, the design data computed finally can be used as a permanent record of specific ventilation system, and because of flexibility to be able to design over and over again while making only slight changes to the input data, the spreadsheet model is used availably to accomplish the design optimazation by redesign and troubleshooting by review from field measurements.
Also, the spreadsheet model is available for designing ventilation system under different condition or evaluating existing system or design drawing, because changes in the layout or formulae can be readily made to fit the needs of the designer.
