Constant Air Volume - CAV

The video tutorial explains the differences between Constant Air Volume (CAV) and Variable Air Volume (VAV) systems in HVAC. It covers the components, limitations, and design considerations of CAV systems, highlighting their inefficiencies compared to VAV systems. The tutorial also discusses advanced configurations and potential solutions to improve energy efficiency, such as using reheaters and dual duct systems. It concludes with tips for optimizing CAV systems to reduce operating costs.

What is the significance of calculating the air flow rate for each room during the design phase?

How do terminal reheaters work in a CAV system?

What are dual duct CAV systems, and how do they differ from standard CAV systems?

Discuss the energy efficiency challenges associated with CAV systems.
