the problem and solution in the design of the central air conditioning system of a hospital: Improving the energy efficiency of the central air conditioning system of a hospital: Background A complaint was received from the hospital administration regarding the high electricity bill caused by the operation of the central air conditioning system. The system is designed to provide optimal climatic conditions for patients, staff and visitors, but without taking into account energy efficiency and environmental sustainability. The problem is the excess energy consumption in the central air conditioning system leads to increased costs and carbon emissions. With increasing energy demand and environmental challenges, hospitals must adopt more efficient and responsible energy practices. Evaluation and analysis Advanced Central Air Conditioning Design Company has been commissioned to conduct a study to identify the sources of energy waste in the hospital’s central air conditioning system. Measuring and monitoring devices were used to track energy consumption, air flow, temperature and humidity in various departments of the hospital. The data were analyzed and compared with international and local standards for energy efficiency in buildings. Proposed Solution: Several measures have been proposed to improve the energy efficiency of the hospital’s central air conditioning system, namely:Installation of motion and lighting sensors to control the operation of the system based on the actual needs of users.Installation of variable speed pumps and fans to adjust the flow of air and water based on convection and different areas.Installation of heat exchangers to recover heat generated by cooling and heating and using them to heat or cool water.Installing solar panels to generate electrical energy and reduce dependence on the national grid.Install an energy management system to monitor and improve system performance and provide periodic reports on energy consumption and savings achieved. Actions taken: The proposed solutions were presented to the hospital management and approval was obtained for their implementation. The schedule, budget and resources required for the implementation of the project were determined. The proposed measures were implemented in accordance with the technical specifications and quality standards. The improved system was tested and operated and the results were compared with the original condition. Recommendations It is recommended to carry out periodic maintenance of the improved system and follow up its performance and efficiency. It is recommended to educate users about the importance of energy conservation and to adopt environmentally conscious practices. It is recommended to apply the principles of green design and energy efficiency. The proposed solutions reflect Advanced Company’s commitment to providing engineering solutions that meet the requirements of efficiency and sustainability in sensitive hospital environments
