Schools

High occupancy levels demand high outdoor air percentages. Humidity problems have caused many schools to be operated with insufficient outdoor air quantities, with detrimental impact on indoor air quality and ultimately the learning environment. Revolution solves these problems. By using its VAV capability and optional FV total energy recovery module, project first cost can be significantly reduced when compared to many conventional design approaches.

Application Type	Outdoor Air	Supply Conditions (3)		Tons Required (4)
Application Type	Outdoor Air	Temperature	Humidity	Revolution	Conventional	Increase
Schools (elementary)	34%	64°F	57 grains (52° dpt.)	23	45	96%

Notes:
1. Includes the addition of the SEMCO FV total energy recovery module since exhaust air path is generally available.
2. School example assumes a space condition of 75°F/50%RH.
3. Supply conditions necessary to maintain the space at 75°F/50%RH. Assumes outdoor design of 85°F/130 grains, typical building size and construction used for each application and high efficiency lighting in accordance with ASHRAE 90.1 (dpt. = dew point).
4. Revolution is compared with a conventional cooling system sized to cool air to the required dew point, the regeneration energy required by the Revolution is equal to or less than the reheat energy required by the conventional system.
