Abstract

Results of a survey indicate that 89% of the respondents use PC-based software packages to size their air-conditioning plant; 67% of them care about the building energy use; 83% adopt either ASHRAE standards or CIBSE guides in their design work; 67% intentionally oversize; and 87% use central air-conditioning plant with primary air fan-coil (PAF) systems in their recently completed commercial building projects.
