Energy Saving Potentials of Dedicated Outdoor Air System in High-rise Apartment Buildings

The main thrust of this paper is to investigate the optimized supply air condition and energy saving potentials of a dedicated outdoor air system (DOAS) applied to a high-rise apartment building. For a typical 132-m2 apartment unit, it was assumed that two different systems, namely, a centralized DOAS integrated with ceiling radiant cooling panel (CRCP) and a decentralized energy recovery ventilator (ERV) operated with packaged air conditioner, were installed.
