HVAC system types

 Here are the common types of HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems: 1. Constant Volume (CV) System:  Provides a constant airflow rate, regardless of temperature changes. 2. Variable Air Volume (VAV) System:  Adjusts airflow rates based on temperature changes, for energy efficiency. 3. Constant Air Volume (CAV) System:  Similar to CV, but with a fixed airflow rate and variable temperature. 4. Hybrid System:  Combines different HVAC systems, such as gas and electric, for optimal performance. 5. Central Air Conditioning System:  Uses a central unit to cool and distribute air throughout the building. 6. Decentralized Air Conditioning System: Employs multiple smaller units for cooling and heating. 7. Heat Pump System:   Reverses refrigeration cycles for both heating and cooling. 8. Radiant Cooling System:   Uses cooled surfaces for heat transfer, rather than air. 9. Displacement Ventilation System: Introduces fresh air at floor l...
