Variable Refrigerant Flow Design AI
AI design of VRF/VRV HVAC systems for zoned heating and cooling.
Definition
Variable Refrigerant Flow Design AI optimizes the design of VRF (or VRV) HVAC systems. It analyzes building loads, selects equipment, and plans refrigerant piping to create efficient, flexible HVAC systems that provide individual zone control in commercial buildings.
In Depth
Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) systems use refrigerant as the heat transfer medium, distributing heating and cooling to individual zones through compact indoor units connected by small-diameter refrigerant piping. AI designs the system — selecting the outdoor units, sizing the refrigerant piping, and configuring the branch controllers — to serve the building's zone-by-zone heating and cooling loads efficiently.
