Describes a proposed environmental control system to be demonstrated in a single-family detached residence in Arizona. The home is to be built of heavy mass (adobe) construction and will incorporate radiant surfaces in both the ceiling and the floor supplied by a hydronic source. A convective system will provide peak-load capability, replacement ventilation, and dehumidification control. A control system will be developed that is based on operative temperature. Sensors will monitor surface and temperatures, ambient air temperature, and indoor humidity. It is anticipated that the proposed system will provide a more stable comfort at a lower operating cost.
