Document Description
The purpose of this contract is to develop UFAD system simulation software that can be used by design practitioners to calculate energy performance of UFAD systems and to compare the performance of UFAD systems with that of conventional systems. The availability of such a tool will help UFAD technology achieve its full potential by enabling the design of UFAD systems that are energy efficient, intelligently operated, and effective in their performance. This meets the PIER goal of Improving the Energy Cost/Value of California's Electricity by fostering the implementation of energy efficiency UFAD systems. This project also meets the secondary goal of Improving the Environmental and Public Health Costs by insuring that UFAD systems are properly designed to maximize their indoor environmental health and occupant comfort benefits.
