Conclusions –
• VRF (Air- cooled), heat recovery, DOAS,DCV is more efficient than first two cases because –
• Gives more cooling in less energy usage
• DCV is a type of ventilation system that adjusts the amount of outdoor air brought into a
building based on occupancy and other factors.
• Main difference between the two systems is that the "VRF (air-cooled) heat recovery DOAS, DCV"
system has the capability to adjust the amount of outdoor air based on the actual needs of the
building, while the "VRF (air-cooled) heat recovery DOAS" system brings in a fixed amount of
outdoor air. This can potentially lead to better indoor air quality and energy efficiency with the DCV
system.
