Abstract
In some examples of the disclosure, an active chilled beam includes an inlet coupled to an upstream duct, a damper disposed within the inlet, a plenum coupled to the inlet, a heat exchanger adjacent to the plenum, wherein the plenum and the heat exchanger are separated by a panel comprising one or more nozzles permitting airflow from the plenum to a cavity in which the heat exchanger is installed, and a controller that determines a degree to which the damper permits airflow through the inlet and into the plenum based upon a static pressure within the plenum and a desired airflow exiting the active chilled beam.
