Abstract
Indoor air quality, ventilation airflow rates and HVAC
capital and operating costs usually are closely related. Auxiliary
energy loads for supply air heating or cooling sometimes can
substantially reduce the need for dehumidifying or humidifying by using
air-to-air heat or energy exchangers. The most important factors in reducing HVAC capital and operating costs are ventilation airflow requirements, climatic parameters, exchanger recovery system performance factors and duration of operation.
