> Hi,group members,

effect of PMV & PPD by verying the Air Velocity along with the effect of air
velocity on energy consumption of same zone.

I have done some exercises to change the Air velocity from .2 m/s to 2
m/s and found that the effect on PMV/PPD. But the energy consuption
remains same at differene air velocity.
can anyone here help me find out the problems,

Hi Jawan,
Sounds like the HVAC controls are still reacting to the temperature and RH
criteria as is usually the default. So, even though the people may be
comfortable as per the redefined criteria, the system's working in the same
old way - no difference in energy.
I'd suggest taking a look at the bio-climatic chart and raising the
temperature set-point accordingly.
