Demand-led Ventilation Vein System with using Plant Rooms

Using LED lighting and an intelligent control system is a great way to reduce lighting loads and overall energy demand. By only using lighting when it is needed, and adjusting lighting levels based on occupancy and daylight levels, you can significantly reduce energy consumption. What is more, the building consists of 3 Plant Rooms which keep the temperature cold enough. As the engineering director of the UEA Enterprise Centre explained that the system was designed especially for efficiency in summer.

The structure keeps the temperature in the south wing because of the classroom and learning needs. It keeps the cooling system accurate to the student’s current clothing. Furthermore, the Enterprise Centre includes a small amount of Air Cooling Systems involved in a 300seat auditorium. To determine the amount of air cooling system required for a 300-seat auditorium, we need to consider several factors, such as the size of the auditorium, the number of people in the room, the heat generated by lighting and equipment, and the local climate.

Similarly, using a demand-led ventilation system controlled by occupancy and CO2 sensors is a smart way to ensure that fresh air is delivered when and where it is needed while minimizing energy consumption. By only ventilating areas that are occupied, and adjusting ventilation rates based on actual occupancy levels, you can reduce the amount of energy needed to heat or cool the air.

It’s also interesting to note that the building has three ventilation plant rooms, which suggests that the ventilation system is designed to be flexible and adaptable to different areas of the building. This can help ensure that each space receives the appropriate amount of ventilation while minimizing energy waste.
