Abstract

The arrays of computer and other network architecture in a computer laboratory generates heat and offset the environmental condition. Maintaining a conducive environment in the computer laboratory involves the plannning and execution of a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. The HVAC system in a computer laboratory is to ensure stable and conducive environmental conditions for users and electronic infrastructure while minimizing energy consumptions. For effective monitoring and controlling of the environmental condition in computer laboratory, a workable smart system is inevitable. The aim of this study is to design a smart system for the control of space. In a computer laboratory, where the consistancy of environmental conditions directly effects the reliability and system. A sustainable and ideal environment for both technology and users are ensured by the combined approach of precison cooling, energy recovery, indoor and smart controls. The efficient use of this HVAC system serves as an example of how computer lab spaces cabn be designed with energy conservation in mind.
