1 Energy Savings Using Airius Air Pear Destratification and Air Circulation Fans in an HVAC Environment in Temperate and Sub Tropical zones. HAP Software Analysis Engineered by Vahid Vakiloroaya A Copyright Executive Summary Thermal Equalisation and air circulation has been proven worldwide to be effective in saving energy in most types of conditioned buildings, primarily in the heating climate of the northern hemisphere. The application of destratification and air circulation as a simple, cost effective, energy saving solution for air conditioned buildings in the southern hemisphere where the climate is temperate or sub-tropical has not been considered or understood until the last couple of years. However, the recent use of thermal equalisation in conditioned buildings such as retail precincts, schools, manufacturing plants, cold stores, warehouses and offices using products such as the Airius Air Pear Thermal Equalizer fans in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Auckland has provided some significant energy saving outcomes during the very hot summer of Energy Savings and short Returns on Investment in cooling mode from the use of Airius Air Pear destratification fans can be extrapolated to all summer periods in a range of locations. This report has been commissioned by Airius Oceania P/L to help mechanical engineers and our customers understand the efficacy of thermal destratification and air circulation in conditioned spaces (in the temperate and sub-tropical climate) as an acceptable and proven simple technology to significantly reduce HVAC energy usage in the cooling months of summer, spring and autumn when required. In addition user comfort is significantly improved due to the gentle air movement from Airius Air Pear units across the skin creating evaporative cooling. Outcomes of the modelling in this report for a 2000 sq. metre 4 metre high retail space using a water cooled HVAC system indicate cooling energy savings of a minimum of 10.9% across the year, for a 2 Deg. C Delta T between floor and ceiling, up to 23% energy savings where the Delta T is 6 Deg. C. Research from BSRIA C in the UK indicates that One Deg. C temperature increase per metre in height is common inside buildings. In Australia temperature differences of 3 Deg. C every metre in height has been recorded in buildings that Air Pears have been installed into. It is important to note that different types of HVAC systems such as air cooled units may show even higher energy savings dependent on climatic location, internal floor to ceiling Delta T as well as the Delta T between dry and wet bulb ambient temperature. Increased Delta T for both internal and ambient external temperatures will result in higher energy savings using destratification. Further energy savings, above the predicted savings achieved in this software process, can be realised via the use of thermal destratification creating other energy saving opportunities but those are outside the scope of this report. These include; accelerated reuse of the chilled air captured by thermal buoyancy up under the ceiling post discharge, increase or decrease of thermal set points as a result of destratification and a range of other energy saving opportunities. It is important to note that in some cases energy savings of HVAC in summer can reach 35% but the overall yearly cooling only savings average has been considered in this report. Heating savings using destratification should be added to this percentage. Hourly Analysis Program v4.61 Page 1 of 43
2 The outcomes of this analysis are as follows:- City Energy Saving for 2C (%) Energy Saving for 4C (%) Energy Saving for 6C (%) Sydney Melbourne Brisbane Auckland Introduction The worldwide use of Airius Air Pear destratification fans has been proven to significantly reduce equipment energy consumption in heating environments where the hot air rises to the ceiling and causes the heating system to over deliver on a continual basis in winter. (Carbon Trust UK, BSRIA) Energy savings of 35% of the HVAC system energy have been regularly achieved in heating environments through the use of Airius Air Pear Thermal Equalizer air turbines. While this use of destratification is also applicable to southern hemisphere locales the impact and value of destratification on the HVAC energy use in warm to hot summer conditions has had minimal consideration or review to date. The intent of this report is to validate the premise that destratification will also significantly reduce cooling energy in HVAC systems using a fixed internal temperature set point of 23 Deg. C in summer and 20 Deg. C in winter via the use of the latest HVAC design and energy modelling software known as HAP (By Carrier). The outcomes of this report provide an average yearly energy saving prediction for cooling energy only. Further energy savings above those identified in this software analysis can be achieved by the inclusion of heating energy savings, adjustment of the set points to reflect improved cooling in summer due to increased air flow (Arens et al, 2010; Aynsley, 2009.) and other initiatives linked to the use of thermal destratification and air circulation. That work is outside the scope of this report. 3- Strategy In this study, transient simulations have been carried out using the Hourly Analysis Program (HAP) 2 Version 4.6, a powerful HVAC and energy analysis software programme designed by Carrier and used worldwide to undertake HVAC system design and related energy consumption analysis of the building and the HVAC system which is installed in that building. In this application it has been used to identify and verify the energy saving potential of the AIRIUS Air Pear Thermal Equalizer destratification and air circulation fans in a nominated building type. These simulations have been established for the following four southern hemisphere cities using specific dynamic climate data -Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Auckland, New Zealand. 4- Methodology The use of software modelling has limitations and in this application it is utilised to mimic the impact of destratification and air circulation on the HVAC system in a medium sized (2000 sq. mts.) retail store. A range of assumptions are made around the store building fabric, internal loads etc. Please note that while changing the fabric loads etc. will improve the building s heating and cooling loads the impact of those types of changes on the value of destratification are minimal. The energy saving potential in this study has been considered as a function of cooling plant duty cycling. Building cooling loads as a result of increased or decreased insulation levels, glazing performance etc. is important only for sizing the cooling equipment capacity and has very limited impact on the value of destratification. A range of data around building fabric and internal heat loads were input into the model to provide the data used for analysis so as to assure the reader that the modelled building complies with the latest building code requirements around energy efficiency. Dynamic climate data utilised in the carrier HAP software provides the climatic information needed to provide modelling accuracy and relevance. The building is initially modelled using the nominated HVAC system (see below) then the software is rerun in the relevant climatic zone but with the destratification temperature differences reduced to zero.

3 5- Airius Air Pear fans Airius Air Pears are an American designed and manufactured patented Thermal Equalizer air turbine fan that uses a unique rotor, stator and venturi throat design to propel large volumes of air gently in a non-turbulent manner over long distances. Their exclusive design allows them to propel the air in a narrow focused column, minimising air dispersion and turbulence. The narrow column air enables the units to effectively move air from floor to ceiling with minimal disturbance and maximum control over locations and efficacy of air flow. This is achieved with very low amounts of energy. The Airius Air Pear model 15 utilised in this study uses 15 watts of power at 240 volts. Working in concert together the units quickly destratify or circulate air in a space. 6- Case Study The case study is a commercial shopping space with a 4 metre high ceiling and a 2,000 square metre floor area. The number and size of Airius Air Pear units has been selected based upon calculations provided by Airius Oceania P/L. 15 off Model 15 Airius Air Pear units have been considered as the destratification source. Each unit consumes 15 watts of power at 50 HZ. The selected HVAC system for this building is a water-cooled chiller type which provides chilled water of 6 Deg. C for an air-handling (AHU) unit. The AHU fan is a Variable Air Volume (VAV) unit. An occupancy load of 200 people has been considered inside the building. (For more info please see the attached documents) All building fabric, lighting loads and HVAC systems for the different locations have been modeled under the 2013 NCC Section J energy efficiency protocols. Relevant and detailed climatic data for each location has been input into the facility and the examination is based on cooling periods only when cooling is required inside the building. 7- Temperature Differences Three temperature differences (floor to ceiling) of 2Deg. C, 4Deg. C and 6Deg. C have been considered for each city in the nominated space. 8- Occupation levels Occupation levels are considered as 200 persons in the space. One person per 10 sq. metres. 9- How Destratification Saves Energy in Warm Climates The energy saving potential using the destratification strategy is primarily due to the duty cycling of the cooling plant. By destratifying the space the return air temperature to the cooling system in summer is cooler and the preset internal temperatures are held constant for a longer period of time. This causes the chiller and compressors to shut down for a longer period during the occupied period of the day, start later and turn off earlier resulting in reduced energy savings. In a conditioned facility the higher the temperature difference between floor and ceiling the greater the energy savings using destratification. Different systems such as air cooled designs in different climates may result in larger energy savings. Additionally, the greater the difference between ambient dry and wet bulb temperatures results in larger energy savings. 10- Limitations The software doesn t examine other areas of energy savings or thermal comfort achieved with the use of Airius Air Pear fans such as:- Reduction and subsequent accelerated use of cold air captured at ceiling discharge level due to thermal buoyancy and heating of the chilled air. Air circulation using the Airius Air Pear fans optimises this energy discharge ensuring the chilled air is bought to the floor more quickly. This stops the over delivery of conditioned air. Removal of hot and cold spots in the space. Increased summer thermostat setting and decreased winter thermostat setting Reduced AHU and fan loads due to the air movement being provided by the Airius Air Pear units Reduced HVAC AHU energy and smaller duct design (less backpressure) if the Airius Air Pears are connected to the HVAC ducts and installed as a substitute powered ceiling register. Provision of air circulation creating comfort based evaporative cooling. Hourly Analysis Program v4.61 Page 3 of 43

With savings of a minimum of 10.6%- 14% in these climates thermal equalisation can significantly reduce energy use and improve thermal comfort. The low energy consumption of Airius Air Pear fans and their specific design ensures the units achieve destratification quickly and cost effectively, resulting in optimised HVAC outcomes and energy savings. In addition even greater savings can be recognised by the addition of a range of energy savings outcomes achieved by the use of destratification that are not included in this modelling exercise.
