31 Cooling Load Estimate “Rule of Thumb”: 1 Ton/400 SF Required Airflow: Main Duct Run: 40” f for low pressure –Equivalent to 76”x19”, 60”x24”, 37”x37” Horizontal Duct Run each floor: 28” f for low pressure –Equivalent to 29”x23”, 56”x14” 41

32 Mechanical shaft sizing Mechanical room sizing 37” 18” min 6’-9” 5’-3” Say 2’ for access Plumbing AHU: 9.6’ x 28’ x 6.01’ high Hot Water heater Electrical Equipment 22’ 32’ Mech Room 32’x22’ = 704 SF Minimum area for mechanical shaft 6.75’x5.25’ = 35.5 SF 42

33 HVAC System Conventional System Option Under-floor Passive Distribution System Option –Energy savings –Less ductwork –Easier maintenance 43

34 Elevator Gen2™ with Remote Elevator Monitoring (REM ®) Excavation depth: 47” (1,2 m) below finished slab Top height: 138” (3,5 m) above top slab – space for mechanical and emergency operations Dimensions: Door opening = 38” (900 mm ) 66” x 99” (1670 x 2520 mm) including construction tolerance Costs: $ (installation not included) 44 Low energy consumption Low speed Reduce need for maintenance by no switches, no gear-weel, no oil use. Only reusable components. Encourage usage of the stairs– fewer users – less mechanical wear

35 Energy demand 45 Energy Demand –145 kBtu/SF for University Bldgs (1995 DOE Data)  1,300,000 kWh/year Peak Energy Demand –9.33 W/SF (75 th percentile 1995 DOE data) –With 4% annual growth: Total 2015 Peak Energy Demand = 500kW Reduce energy consumption Few large Air Handling Units Low speed Conformity regarding components

36 Solar Energy Solar Supply = 12 W/SF –For 50% of roof area, max available solar energy = 180 kW, or 36% of estimated peak energy $6/W, 500 kW of solar energy installed = $3,000,000, 42,000 $6/W, 180 kW of solar energy installed = $1,080,000 $3/W Rebate (CA Energy Commission) Total installed cost = $540,000 Energy savings as high as $25,000/year 46 Geothermal Energy Our site is not very suitable for geothermal energy Source: California Energy Commission “Preliminary Renewable Resource Assessment,” July 2003
