REHVA -- Chilled Beam Application Guidebook
This guidebook provides tools and guidance: To achieve good indoor climate using chilled beam technology; To select chilled beams and other required components; and,To design the air and water distribution system. It also presents some case studies in the use of chilled beams. Chilled beams are a relatively new technology, developed in the 1980s. This type of room air conditioning has spread rapidly all over Europe. Chilled beams are primarily used for cooling, heating and ventilating spaces, where good indoor environmental quality and individual space control are appreciated. This guidebook is aimed at consulting engineers and contractors who want to design and execute good chilled beam systems and also facility owners who want to develop life cycle cost efficient buildings and comfortable occupied spaces for people. 50 p., 6.5 x 9.5 in.
