3、emperature exceeds 300F. In thermalradiation, heat is transferred by electromagnetic waves that travel instraight lines and can be reflected. Thermal radiation principallyoccurs between surfaces or between a source and a surface. In a con-ditioned space, air is not heated or cooled in this process.

4、Because ofthese characteristics, radiant systems are effective for both spot heat-ing and space heating or cooling requirements for an entire building.Sensible heating loads may be reduced by 4 to 16% comparedto ASHRAE standard design load. Percent reduction increases withthe air change rate (Suryan

5、arayana and Howell 1990).1. LOW-, MEDIUM-, AND HIGH-INTENSITY INFRARED HEATINGLow-, medium-, and high-intensity infrared heaters are compact,self-contained direct-heating devices used in hangars, warehouses,factories, greenhouses, and gymnasiums, as well as in areas such asloading docks, racetrack s

6、tands, outdoor restaurants, animal breed-ing areas, swimming pool lounge areas, and areas under marquees.Infrared heating is also used for snow melting and freeze protection(e.g., on stairs and ramps) and process heating (e.g., paint baking anddrying). An infrared heater may be electric, gas-fired,

7、or oil-firedand is classified by the source temperature as follows:Low-intensity (source temperatures to 1200F)Medium-intensity (source temperatures to 1800F)High-intensity (source temperatures to 5000F)The source temperature is determined by such factors as thesource of energy, the configuration, a

8、nd the size. Reflectors can beused to direct the distribution of thermal radiation in specific pat-terns. Chapter 16 of the 2012 ASHRAE HandbookHVAC Systemsand Equipment covers radiant equipment in detail.2. PANEL HEATING AND COOLINGPanel heating and cooling systems provide a comfortable envi-ronmen

They include the following designs:Ceiling panels Embedded hydronic tubing or attached piping in ceilings, walls, orfloorsAir-heated or cooled floors or ceilingsElectric ceiling or wall panelsElectric heating cable or wir

10、e mats in ceilings or floorsDeep heat, a modified storage system using electric heating cableor embedded hydronic tubing in ceilings or floorsIn these systems, generally more than 50% of the heat transferbetween the temperature-controlled surface and other surfaces is bythermal radiation. Panel heat

11、ing and cooling systems are used in resi-dences, office buildings, classrooms, hospital patient rooms, swim-ming pool areas, repair garages, and in industrial and warehouseapplications. Additional information is available in Chapter 6 of the2012 ASHRAE HandbookHVAC Systems and Equipment.Some radiant

12、 panel systems, referred to as hybrid HVAC systems,combine radiant heating and cooling with central air conditioning(Scheatzle 2003). They are used more for cooling than for heating(Wilkins and Kosonen 1992). The controlled-temperature surfacesmay be in the floor, walls, or ceiling, with temperature

13、 maintained byelectric resistance or circulation of water or air. The central stationcan be a basic, one-zone, constant-temperature, or constant-volumesystem, or it can incorporate some or all the features of dual-duct,reheat, multizone, or variable-volume systems. When used in com-bination with oth

14、er water/air systems, radiant panels provide zonecontrol of temperature and humidity.Metal ceiling panels may be integrated into the central heatingand cooling system to provide individual room or zone heating andcooling. These panels can be designed as small units to fit the build-ing module, or th

15、ey can be arranged as large continuous areas foreconomy. Room thermal conditions are maintained primarily bydirect transfer of radiant energy, normally using four-pipe hot andchilled water. These systems have generally been used in hospitalpatient rooms. Metal ceiling panel systems are discussed in

16、Chapter6 of the 2012 ASHRAE HandbookHVAC Systems and Equipment.3. ELEMENTARY DESIGN RELATIONSHIPSWhen considering radiant heating or cooling for human comfort,the following terms describe the temperature and energy character-istics of the total radiant environment:Mean radiant temperature (MRT) is t

17、he temperature of animaginary isothermal black enclosure in which an occupant wouldexchange the same amount of heat by radiation as in the actualnonuniform environment.Ambient temperature tais the temperature of the air surroundingthe occupant.Operative temperature tois the temperature of a uniform

18、isother-mal black enclosure in which the occupant would exchange thesame amount of heat by radiation and convection as in the actualnonuniform environment.For air velocities less than 80 fpm and mean radiant tempera-tures less than 120F, the operative temperature is approximatelyequal to the adjuste

19、d dry-bulb temperature, which is the average ofthe air and mean radiant temperatures.Adjusted dry-bulb temperature is the average of the air temper-ature and the mean radiant temperature at a given location. Theadjusted dry-bulb temperature is approximately equivalent to theoperative temperature for

20、 air motions less than 80 fpm and meanradiant temperatures less than 120F.The preparation of this chapter is assigned to TC 6.5, Radiant Heating andCooling.t r54.2 2015 ASHRAE HandbookHVAC ApplicationsEffective radiant flux (ERF) is defined as the net radiant heatexchanged at ambient temperature tab

21、etween an occupant, whosesurface is hypothetical, and all enclosing surfaces and directionalheat sources and sinks. Thus, ERF is the net radiant energyreceived by the occupant from all surfaces and sources whosetemperatures differ from ta. ERF is particularly useful in high-intensity radiant heating

22、 applications.The relationship between these terms can be shown for an occu-pant at surface temperature tsf, exchanging sensible heat Hmin aroom with ambient air temperature taand mean radiant temperature. The linear radiative and convective heat transfer coefficients arehrand hc, respectively; the

23、latter is a function of the relative move-ment between the occupant and air movement V. The heat balanceequation isHm= hr(tsf ) = hc(tsf ta)(1)During thermal equilibrium, Hmis equal to metabolic heat minuswork and evaporative cooling by sweating. By definition of opera-tive temperature,Hm= (hr+ hc)(

UsingEquations (1) and (2) to solve for toyieldsto= (3)Thus, tois an average of and ta, weighted by their respective heattransfer coefficients; it represents how people sense the thermallevel of their total environm

25、ent as a single temperature.Rearranging Equation (1) and substituting h hrfor hc,Hm+ hr( ta) = h(tsf ta)(4)where hris, by definition, the effective radiant flux (ERF)and represents the radiant energy absorbed by the occupant from allsources whose temperatures differ from ta.The principal relationshi

26、ps between , ta, to, and ERF are asfollows:ERF = hr( ta)(5)ERF = h(to ta6= ta+ ERF/hr(7)to= ta+ ERF/h (8)= ta+ (h/hr)(to ta)(9)to= ta+ (hr/h)( ta) (10)In Equations (1) to (10), the radiant environment is treated as ablackbody with temperature . The effect of the emittance of thesource, radiating at

27、absolute temperature in degrees Rankine, andthe absorptance of skin and clothed surfaces is reflected in the effec-tive values of or ERF and not in hr, which is generally given byhr= 4feff(11)wherehr= linear radiative heat transfer coefficient, Btu/hft2Ffeff= ratio of radiating surface of the human

ERF is independentof the occupants surface temperature and can be measured directlyby a black globe thermometer or any blackbody radiometer or fluxmeter using the ambient air taas

30、 its heat sink.In these definitions and for radiators below 1700F (2160R), thebody clothing and skin surface are treated as blackbodies, exchang-ing radiation with an imaginary blackbody surface at temperature. The effectiveness of a radiating source on human occupants isgoverned by the absorptance

31、of the skin and clothing surface forthe color temperature (in R) of that radiating source. The relation-ship between and temperature is illustrated in Figure 1. Values for are those expected relative to the matte black surface normallyfound on globe thermometers or radiometers measuring radiantenerg

32、y. A gas radiator usually operates at 1700F (2160R); aquartz lamp, for example, radiates at 4000F (4460R) with 240 V;and the suns radiating temperature is 10,000F (10,460R). Theuse of in estimating the ERF and tocaused by sources radiating attemperatures above 1700F (2160R) is discussed in the secti

DESIGN CRITERIA FOR ACCEPTABLE RADIA

34、NT HEATINGPerceptions of comfort, temperature, and thermal acceptabilityare related to activity, body heat transfer from the skin to the envi-ronment, and the resulting physiological adjustments and bodytemperature. The split between convective and radiant heat transferfrom or to a body is also a ma

35、tter of subjective human comfort. Theoptimum split is about 60% by thermal radiation and 40% by ther-mal convection. Heat transfer is affected by ambient air tempera-ture, thermal radiation, air movement, humidity, and clothing worn.Thermal sensation is described as feelings of hot, warm, slightlywa

36、rm, neutral, slightly cool, cool, and cold. An acceptable environ-ment is defined as one in which at least 80% of the occupants per-ceive a thermal sensation between “slightly cool” and “slightlywarm.” Comfort is associated with a neutral thermal sensation dur-ing which the human body regulates its

37、internal temperature withminimal physiological effort for the activity concerned. In contrast,warm discomfort is primarily related to the physiological strainnecessary to maintain the bodys thermal equilibrium rather than tothe temperature sensation experienced. For a full discussion of theinterrela

38、tion of physical, psychological, and physiological factors,refer to Chapter 9 of the 2013 ASHRAE HandbookFundamen-tals.ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 55-1992 shows a linear relationshipbetween clothing insulation worn and the operative temperature tofor comfort (Figure 2). Figure 3 shows the effect of both ac

39、tivity andclothing on the tofor comfort. Figure 4 shows the slight effecthumidity has on the comfort of a sedentary person wearing averageclothing. Figures 2, 3, and 4 are adapted from ANSI/ASHRAEStandard 55, Thermal Environmental Conditions for HumanOccupancy.A comfortable toat 50% rh is perceived

40、as slightly warmer ashumidity increases, or as slightly cooler as humidity decreases.Changes in humidity have a much greater effect on warm and hotdiscomfort. In contrast, cold discomfort is only slightly affected byhumidity and is very closely related to a cold thermal sensation.Determining the spe

41、cifications for a radiant heating installationdesigned for human occupancy and acceptability involves the fol-lowing steps:1. Define the probable activity (metabolism) level of, and clothingworn by, the occupant and the relative air velocity. The followingare two examples:Case 1: Sedentary (1.1 met)

42、Clothing insulation = 0.6 clo; V = 30 fpmCase 2: Light work (walking) (2 met)Clothing insulation = 0.9 clo; V = 100 fpm2. From Figure 2 (sedentary) or 3 (active), determine the optimum tofor comfort and acceptability:Fig. 2 Range of Thermal Acceptability for Sedentary People with Various Clothing In

For ambient air temperature ta, calculate the

44、mean radiant tem-perature and/or ERF necessary for comfort and thermalacceptability.Case 1: For ta= 60F and 50% rh and assuming = 86F,Solve for hrfrom Equation (11):hr= 4 0.1712 108 0.71(86 + 60)/2 + 4603= 0.736 Solve for hcfrom Equation (12c):hc= 0.55Then,h = hr+ hc= 0.736 + 0.55 = 1.286 Btu/hft2F=

45、 0.57From Equation (6), for comfort,ERF = 1.286(75 60) = 19.3 Btu/hft2From Equation (9),= 60 + (1.286/0.736)(75 60) = 86.2FCase 2: For ta= 50F and assuming = 81F,hr= 4 0.1712 108 0.71(81 + 50)/2 + 4603= = 0.706 hc= 0.092(100)0.53= 1.06 h = 0.706 + 1.06 = 1.766 Btu/hft2F= 0.40ERF = 1.766(62.5 50) = 2

46、2.1 Btu/hft2From Equation (7),= 50 + 22.1/0.706 = 81.3FThe tofor comfort, predicted by Figure 2, is on the cool sidewhen the humidity is low; for high humidities, the predicted toforcomfort is warm. This effect on comfort for sedentary occupants canbe seen in Figure 4. For example, for high humidity

47、 at tdp= 59F, thetofor comfort isCase 1: to= 73.5F, compared to 75F at 50% rhWhen thermal acceptability is the primary consideration in aninstallation, humidity can sometimes be ignored in preliminarydesign specifications. However, for conditions where radiant heat-ing and the work level cause sweat

48、ing and high heat stress, humidityis a major consideration and a hybrid HVAC system should be used.Equations (3) to (12) can also be used to determine the ambientair temperature tarequired when the mean radiant temperature MRTis maintained by a specified radiant system.When calculating heat loss, ta

49、must be determined. For a radiantsystem that is to maintain a MRT of , the operative temperature tocan be determined from Figure 4. Then, tacan be calculated byrecalling that tois approximately equal to the average of taand tr.For example, for a toof 73F and a radiant system designed to main-tain an MRT of 78F, the tawould be 68F.When the surface temperature of outside walls, particularly thosewith large areas of glass, deviates
