摘要： An air-conditioning system includes: a ventilator that ventilates the inside of a room and includes an exhaust fan that sends air taken from the room to the outside, a supply fan that sends air taken from the outside into the room, and a control unit that controls a ventilation air volume of operation with the exhaust fan and the supply fan; and a human detection sensor that detects the presence or absence of a human in the room. The control unit is capable of switching the ventilation air volume to at least a first air volume and a second air volume higher than the first air volume, and sets the ventilation air volume to the first air volume when the presence of a human is not detected by the human detection sensor.

摘要： A damper controller may be configured to send damper control commands to open and close an outdoor air damper to provide free cooling as necessary to satisfy a temperature setpoint inside the building. In some cases, the damper controller may initiate a damper fault test to determine if a damper fault is present. The damper fault test may be based, at least in part, on an outdoor air temperature input, a discharge air temperature input, a commanded damper position, and a damper fault temperature threshold. If a damper fault is determined, the damper controller may send an alert indicative of a detected damper fault. In some cases, the damper fault test results may be weighted to reduce the false positives alerts.

摘要： A vent apparatus that prevents the ingress of flames, superheated air, and/or flaming materials (e.g., embers) from an external fire to a building or structure is disclosed. The vent apparatus comprises a frame that defines an inlet, and outlet, and an internal passage. A guiding member is disposed within the internal passage to thereby deflect or direct a portion of a flow of material between the inlet and outlet. A blocking element is disposed on the guiding member that is configured to expand to at least partially block the flow of material between the inlet and outlet.

摘要： A system for monitoring and controlling flow rate of a fluid through a valve, the system including a flow rate sensor configured to measure the flow rate of the fluid through the valve, and a controller in communication with the flow rate sensor. The controller is configured to receive the measured flow rate from the flow rate sensor and determine if the measured flow rate is equal to a predetermined flow rate value. In response to determining equality, the controller is configured to determine a minimum valve position threshold (xmin), and determine a minimum flow rate threshold (ymin) corresponding to xmin. The controller is further configured to calculate a corrected flow rate (ŷf) using xmin, ymin, and an indication of valve position (v). Additionally, the controller is configured to control a valve operation using the corrected flow rate (ŷf).
