3 Passive Chilled Beams Federation of European Heating, Ventilation and Air-conditioning Associations 3
4 Main Principles of Passive Chilled Beam Passive chilled beams comprise a heat exchanger for cooling, and when desired for heating. The operation is based on natural convection. The primary air is supplied to the space using separate diffusers either in the ceiling or wall, low velocity units at low level or alternatively through the raised floor. Federation of European Heating, Ventilation and Air-conditioning Associations 4
5 Active Chilled Beams Federation of European Heating, Ventilation and Air-conditioning Associations 5
6 Chilled Beam Operation 1. Primary air (dehumidificated outdoor air) supply into supply air chamber Primary air is supplied through small nozzles. 3. Primary air supply induces room air to be re-circulated through the heat exchanger of the chilled beam. 4. Re-circulated room air and the primary air are mixed prior to diffusion in the space 6 5. Cold water connection 6. Warm water connection Federation of European Heating, Ventilation and Air-conditioning Associations 6
