Definitions
- Buildings can have air conditioning or ventilation systems in which the air is heated or cooled by externally located air delivery units.
- the primary cooling and heating equipment of such air delivery units can largely be contained within a single weather-proof unit or piece of apparatus, known as a packaged air conditioner (PAC) , which is externally located.
- PAC packaged air conditioner
- This primary cooling and heating equipment can include indoor refrigeration cycle components such as compressors, reversing valves (for heating), evaporators and condensers, and associated fans.
- PACs cool or heat return air from a building and outdoor air, or can cool or heat a blend of the two, for example, made up predominantly of return air (unless delivering economiser mode "free cooling" of predominantly cool outdoor air) before delivering this conditioned air to the building.
- Buildings are being constructed with increasing air tightness as the demand for sustainable buildings rises. Consequently, spill air, increasingly, needs to be provided with a spill air path - usually fan assisted - in order to be relieved from modern buildings, rather than simply escaping as leakage.
- Disadvantages with PACs of the prior art include !iheir inability to remove spill air from a building while supplying air to a building.
- Ventilation systems in buildings can include smoke control systems operable to remove smoke from a building.
- Smoke control systems include a combination of fans, dampers, warning devices and control equipment.
- Buildings that can have smoke control systems include hospitals, enclosed shopping malls, warehouses, factories and high rise buildings.
- Smoke control systems are installed in buildings to protect the lives of occupants and reduce damage to property.
- National building codes eg the Building Code of Australia
- Smoke control systems may be classed as dedicated or non-dedicated systems.
- Non-dedicated smoke control systems are used during normal HVAC (heating, ventilation and air-conditioning) operation and during a smoke event.
- HVAC heating, ventilation and air-conditioning
- smoke control mode When smoke control mode is activated in a non-dedicated smoke control system, the operation of the building's HVAC equipment changes.
- These systems involve a specialised control strategy and may also require additional control and monitoring points.
- Dedicated smoke control systems can include mechanically powered smoke exhaust fans that are automatically switched on in a smoke event to maintain a negative pressure in a smoke filled space.
- the intention of a mechanically powered smoke exhaust fan is to maintain a negative pressure relative to the surrounding space so that the smoke does not migrate to undesirable areas.
- AHU air handling unit
- PAC air handling unit
- This also prevents smoke from being re-circulated back into the building.
- smoke exhaust fans may be used to draw smoke from the smoke reservoir to prevent the smoke level from dropping down to the height of occupants, and for a sufficient period of time to allow the occupants to escape.

- Displacement ventilation systems are becoming increasingly popular as a sustainable means of cooling or heating buildings.
- conditioned air is supplied, with largely minimal mixing, to a space within a building at or near floor level to create a low level occupancy microclimate of enhanced indoor air quality of, typically, 23 °C or similar .

- spill air fan (44) draws spill air with heat reclaim potential (26c) from return air chamber (2a) and discharges this air through at least one heat reclaim spill air damper (43) . Thereafter, this air vents passively to the outdoors (11), both directly as well as indirectly via the second heat exchanger (27) and fan (24), or it is drawn by at least one fan (24) across at least one the second heat exchanger (27) to be discharged via type 2 outlet (25) to be discharged to the outdoors (11) ⁇
- spill air fan (44) is fire rated and draws smoke spill air from return air chamber (2a) and discharges this air through at least one fire rated spill air damper (42) or one fire rated heat reclaim spill air damper (43). Thereafter, this air vents passively to the outdoors (11), both directly as well as indirectly via the second heat exchanger (27) and fan (24).
- the evaporative mister onto type 2 heat exchanger may be connected directly to the main water supply of the building rather than to a pump system that draws a combination of mains water, collected rain water and collected condensate water from heat exchangers type 1 and 2.
- the present embodiments are, therefore, to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrict ive .
- HVAC systems that condition supply air via PACs in accordance with the embodiments of the invention incorporate a fan assisted spill air function and therefore do not require separate spill air fan systems.
- HVAC systems that condition supply air via PACs in accordance with the embodiments of the invention benefit from reduced power consumption in applications requiring outdoor air to be delivered to the space being conditioned, as such PACs include the facility to reclaim heat from the spill air venting from the conditioned space .
- HVAC systems that condition supply air via PACs in accordance with the embodiments of the invention benefit from being able to operate in an extended outdoor air temperature range (both colder and warmer than that of PACs of the prior art), especially when introducing large quantities of outdoor air to the space, as heat reclaim from the spill air raises the air temperature onto the outdoor heat exchanger in winter and reduces it in summer, and also reduces defrost requirements in winter.
- HVAC systems that condition supply air via PACs in accordance with the embodiments described in this invention may operate in an even further extended summer outdoor temperature range, as the integration of water spray, mist or flash fogging onto the outdoor hear exchanger reduces the temperature of the outdoor exchanger ,
- HVAC systems that condition supply air via PACs in accordance with the embodiments of the invention may be designed to operate efficiently and effectively with displacement ventilation systems in winter, given that spill air heat recovery in winter minimises defrost frequency and duration, and hence associated supply air temperature fluctuations - indeed, outdoor coil defrosting is very often eliminated entirely,
- KVAC systems that incorporate PACs in accordance with the embodiments described in this invention may benefit from the elimination of additional smoke system rated fan and ducting requirements for the removal of smoke in the event of a fire, as such PACs include a fan assisted smoke spill function.
- PACs include a fan assisted smoke spill function.
