1.0 Executive Summary
The F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory in Melbourne, Florida is the building that I
chose to perform my senior thesis. Throughout the past year, I have researched and
redesigned the mechanical system of the building and touched upon the redesign and
compliance of the electrical and acoustical portions of the building with their respective
codes.
For my Mechanical Depth, I added eight SEMCO Energy Recovery Packaged Units to the
eight Modular Climate Changer (MCC) air handling units throughout the building.
This proved to have saved an estimated cost of $168,000.00 for the cooling of the
building, which equates to 416.97 tons per year.
Although many professionals do not agree with the installation of Desiccant Wheels in
laboratory applications, I have proven that with special attention to detail, cross
contamination from the exhaust stream poses no threat to the supply air in the
occupied spaces.
As for my breadth topics, I have proven that the addition of the Desiccant Wheel
packages to the electrical panels would allow for 4 of the 6 panel boards supplying
electricity to the air handling units to remain the same. The addition two would have to
be either sized up or made into a dual panel board because of the slight increase in
kVA. For the acoustical portion of my thesis, using the Trane Acoustics Program (TAP),
I have shown that the addition of the Desiccant Packages into the air handling units
would not affect the transmittance of noise through the walls to the classroom spaces to
the point of having to change the insulation levels or STC ratings of the walls.

Overall, I feel that I have a successfully completed thesis which proves that the
installation of Desiccant Wheels into the Florida Institute of Technology’s Olin Lab
would be beneficial both in energy and cost savings.

2.0 Introduction
In compliance with the Pennsylvania State University Department of Architectural
Engineering in the College of Engineering, I have completed a one-year thesis on the
F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory in Melbourne, Florida. The following booklet
outlines and completely describes all the research, calculations, CAD drawings,
building models and conclusions that have been drawn and recreated from the past
year of work.
The Florida Institute of Technology is an institution with a strong emphasis on
engineering and the sciences. Along with the Olin Physical Science Laboratory, two
other building have been built in the name of F.W. Olin and funded by the F.W. Olin
Foundation. These two buildings are the F.W Olin Engineering Complex and the F.W.
Olin Life Sciences Building.
A $25 million grant was given to FIT for the completion of both the Physical Science
Laboratory and the Engineering Complex; however a majority of the fund ($14 million)
went to the design effort and construction of the Olin Science Laboratory. This 69,348
square foot facility houses 14 teaching and 21 research laboratories along with faculty
offices and classroom space. The building is also equipped with two large multi-
use/demonstration classrooms.
As a mechanical option, the depth of my thesis work included a redesign of the air
handling units with the addition of desiccant technology. Through initial research, my
hope was that the addition of these wheels would both lower the cooling load on the
cooling coil and lower the cost of energy used by the cooling system in the Olin
Amy E. Pastor Florida Institute of Technology Mechanical Option F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory
Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 6 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
Laboratory. Stemming from my depth work and related to the installation of new
mechanical equipment, I decided to complete an electrical analysis on the panels that
include the air handlers in the Olin Laboratory. My hope was that lowering the load on
the cooling coils would reduce the amount of electricity needed to run the machine.
Along with an electrical analysis, I performed an acoustical analysis on the mechanical
rooms located in the corners of the three floors of the Lab. With the addition of more
equipment, rechecking the transmittance of noise through the mechanical room walls
was important due to the fact that classrooms spaces could be found on the other side.
These two analyses were my two breadth areas of study.

2.1 Outline of Booklet
My thesis booklet was designed to take you step by step in my redesign process of the
Olin Science Laboratory starting with my research on day one. In the Introduction part
of my booklet, I have given an overview of my depth and breadth topics and some
background history on the F.W. Olin Foundation. Following this section, I will continue
to give a brief history of the Olin Foundation and F.W. Olin himself. Upon conclusion
of that, I will include the research of the construction of the Lab with project players,
construction dates, materials used and so forth.
Section Three of my booklet begins the building analyses of the Olin Laboratory with
data proving its compliance with ASHRAE Standards 90.1 and 62-2004. Along with
the ASHRAE Standards, compliance checks with Florida Emissions Codes will also be
proven.
Section Four is my depth analysis of the Olin Science Lab with strict attention to the
addition of desiccant technology. Since Carrier’s Hourly Analysis Program (HAP) has
no way of modeling desiccant wheels in its program, I have put together a detailed
spreadsheet of the calculations as outlined by SEMCO. This allowed me to select the
desiccant wheel that would best suit the needs of each individual air handling unit.
Section Five begins my breadth areas of study, with its main focus on my electrical
redesign. After resizing my coils due to the lowering of the coil load, a redesign of the
amount of electricity needed to run the eight air handlers was completed. Following
the National Electric Code (NEC), full load ampacity (FLA), minimum current ampacity

Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 8 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
(MCA) and maximum overcurrent protection (MCOP) was determined so that panel
board resizing could be an option.
Section Six is the second area of my thesis breadth, Acoustics. With the addition of a
new piece of equipment into the mechanical room, an acoustical problem may arise.
Furthermore, the mechanical room spaces are located next to classroom and office
spaces. For this reason, I have performed an acoustical analysis using the Trane
Acoustical Program (TAP). Included in this section will be my findings, along with a
reference to my printouts in the Appendix part of my report.
Finally, Sections Seven, Eight and Nine are my conclusions, acknowledgements and
appendices, respectively. In Section Seven, I have summarized and concluded all of my
findings and redesigns to the Olin Science Lab over the past year. In Section Nine, all of
the resources and calculations that were used and performed can be found.

2.2 History of Olin Science Lab
In 1938, Franklin W. Olin established the F. W. Olin Foundation. A man of many
trades, his titles included engineer, entrepreneur, philanthropist and professional
basketball player. More than $300 million has been given to 57 independent colleges
to construct and fully equip 72 buildings on their campuses. This has all taken place in
the past 60 years. Although a dabbler in the sciences, most, but not all of the buildings
Olin has funded, are science and engineering facilities. A few of the grant recipients
include Bucknell, Johns Hopkins, Marquette, Tufts, the University of Southern
California and the Florida Institute of Technology.
The Florida Institute of Technology (FIT) is a small, independent university with strong
engineering and science programs. Located in Melbourne, Florida, the campus houses
three buildings dedicated to and fully funded by the F.W. Olin Foundation. Granting
$25 million to FIT, the Olin Foundation decided to put $14 million of that into the
construction and equipping of the F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory.

2.3 Building Statistics
The F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory is a 69,348 square foot facility that houses
14 learning and 21 research laboratories along with faculty offices and classroom
spaces. The building is also equipped with 2 large multi-use/demonstration
classrooms.
A design-build delivery method was used. Design of this project began in 2002 when
Tilden Lobnitz Cooper (TLC) in Cocoa, Florida was approached to create the
mechanical, electrical and plumbing portion of the building. Along with Schwab
Twitty Hanser (STH), who was the main architect on the job, the two companies
compiled a construction team. Figure 2.1 is a list of the companies and their roll in the
project:
Construction began in June 2003 and was predicted to be completed by Fall 2004. Due
to some construction delays and the untimely hurricanes, the final completion of the
project was pushed back and is still undergoing some final touchups.
The four-story laboratory is a cast-in place concrete structure with CMU exterior walls
with cement plaster. A brick veneer was used for final decorative touches. A one-way
concrete slab was also used for this structure’s base.
Figure 2.1: Primary Project Team & Their Roles

Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 11 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
There are some unique aspects to this building. The fourth floor houses a large
observatory deck with several small telescopes. There is also a large domed, one-meter
telescope that was pre-engineered before putting it in place. With room for twelve
additional telescopes, this lab is state of the art.
Of the 35 laboratories that were mentioned above, 25 of them are equipped with fume
hoods. These fume hoods are controlled by Phoenix Valves, each with an individual set
point to control the emissions from the hood to the ambient air.
Adjacent to the Olin Science Lab is the central mechanical building for the space. The
mechanical equipment in the building is consistent of two – 1200 GPM roof-mounted
Marley Cooling Towers, two – 400 ton water-cooled chillers, two – primary chilled
water pumps, two – secondary chilled water pumps, two – condenser water pumps,
two – hot water pumps, two – secondary hot water pumps and finally, one gas-fired,
hot water boiler rated at 4500 MBH.
The electrical power in the building is rated at 675 kW and 2500 A. It is consistently
277/480V, 3 Ф, 4–wire throughout the building, with step-down transformers to
480∆ – 120/208Y. Emergency power would be generated through a 400 kW Diesel
Generator.
In the classroom, lab and office spaces, fluorescent lighting with high power factor
ballasts are used. HID lamps with minimum 90% power factor ballasts can be found in
the mechanical building.

Finally, the fire protection specified for the Olin Laboratory is quick-response action
upright, horizontal sidewall and pendant sprinkler heads with integral chrome-plated
escutcheon plates. The chilled water piping is designated for 175 psig and has a
Corrosion Resistance Rating (CRR) of 1.0 or greater. A horizontal split-case fire pump
designed to deliver greater than 150% of rated capacity at a pressure not less than 65%
of rated head developed is present.

3.0 Building Analysis
As a mechanical option, my first goal was to check the compliance of the F.W. Olin
Physical Science Lab with two very important ASHRAE Standards: 90.1 and 62-2004.
As mentioned in my schedule drawings that were obtained by TLC – Cocoa, the
standards are met and do comply with both. Through work experience at the firm, I
know that their compliance checks are legitimate; however, I decided to recheck the
compliances for my own thesis defense.
ASHRAE Standard 62 – 2004 was designed to check the levels of ventilation supply
needed based on room type, area and occupancy. A Z-critical, or critical space value is
determined and used in these calculations.
ASHRAE Standard 90.1 was designed as a tool for engineers to show requirements for
the construction of a building based on heat transfer materials and lighting. It also
contains guidelines for glass to wall ratios.
3.1 ASHRAE Standard 62 – 2004
In Appendix A, calculations for the Ventilation Rate Procedure can be found. This is the
compliance check for Standard 62–2004 , taken from a Standard 62-2001 Addendum
n. In these excel spreadsheets, you will find that the Olin Physical Science Lab is indeed
compliant with Standard 62–2004.
3.2 ASHRAE Standard 90.1 – Envelope Compliance
The wall structure of the FIT Lab Building is typical throughout the entire laboratory.
This construction consists of face brick, 8” light weight concrete block and gypsum

Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 14 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
board. The overall U-value for this type of construction is 0.124 from Normative
Appendix B in Standard 90.1 (Figure 3.1).
In order for the building envelope to comply with Standard 90.1, a few criteria must be
met. Those include, but are not limited to:
Climate shall be determined based on the cooling degree-days base 50oF, CDD50, and heating degree-days base 65oF, HDD65
Mandatory Provisions (e.g. Insulation General and Air Leakage)
Vertical Fenestration does not exceed 50% of the total gross wall area of the building
As mentioned above in the introduction to this section, my overall U-value for building
envelope material is 0.124. The U – value for my fenestration is 1.02 with my windows
being operable. The total amount of glass throughout my building is approximately
14.13% of the total gross wall area. Because of these three reasons, it is safe to say that
Figure 3.1: Normative Appendix B – Standard 90.1

Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 15 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
the FIT Lab complies with Standard 90.1 in regards to building envelope. Detailed
spreadsheets can be found in Appendix B at the end of this report.
3.3 ASHRAE Standard 90.1 – Lighting Compliance
As per Standard 90.1 – Table 9.6.1, Lighting Power Densities Using the Space–by–Space
Method (Figure 3.2), selection of a specific building type allows you to determine the
maximum wattage per square foot depending on the spaces in the building. For the FIT
Olin Lab, I chose education facilities.
Amy E. Pastor Florida Institute of Technology Mechanical Option F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory
Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 16 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
Looking at the different spaces for an education facility, the wattage per square foot
ranges from 1.3 – 1.8 W/ft2 for typically occupied spaces. After a detailed calculation
was completed, the results were that the FIT Lab Building does comply with Standard
Figure 3.2: Table 9.6.1 from Standard 90.1 – Lighting Power Densities Using the Space–by–Space Method

90.1. A set of detailed calculations can be found in Appendix C at the end of this
report.
3.4 Conclusions of Building Analyses
Appendix A – C, inclusive, are the calculations and compliance check for ASHRAE
Standards 62 – 2004 and 90.1. These calculations acknowledge that the Florida
Institute of Technology’s Olin Science Lab is in compliance with these two very
important ASHRAE Standards.

4.0 Mechanical Redesign
As my depth area of research, I have performed a detailed analysis of the existing air
handling units and the existing conditions of the FIT Science Lab. After one semester of
breaking down the building piece by piece (Fall 2004 – AE 481W), I chose to conduct
my thesis research on the addition of desiccant technology.
A desiccant wheel is used to
remove moisture from the air. As
shown in the desiccant diagram
(Figure 4.1), supply air (process
inlet) passes through the desiccant
wheel. On the desiccant wheel is a
special desiccant coating with a rating for the size of the openings in the wheel. The
wheel is to act as a sieve for the moisture. Typical opening sizes range from 3 – 4
angstroms.
After leaving the wheel, the supply air continues to provide air to the space (process
outlet). In the return or exhaust duct, the air returning to the unit or leaving the
building passed through a heat source (reaction inlet to reaction heat source). This
warmed air then passes back through the desiccant wheel, evaporating the moisture off
of the wheel and then continuing to the ambient air if it is exhaust or to the air
handling unit if it is return air (reaction outlet).
At first glance, the state of the FIT Lab and its air system is perfect. Designed by TLC
Engineering for Architecture in Cocoa, Florida, the standards and rules of thumb were
Figure 4.1: Desiccant Wheel Diagram

Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 19 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
followed to a tee. However, with the climate of a coastal city in Florida, humidity can
pose as a huge problem to those who inhabit the area. Along with the stickiness you
feel due to humidity comes water vapor which has the ability to produce mold and
mildew on items throughout the building system. Ductwork insulation can grow mold
on it and when the air is passing through to classrooms and laboratories, the air
particles carry those spores with them, causing sick building syndrome.
I have always been interested in Desiccant Technology although it is not typically seen
in normal building applications. It is known that most people do not choose desiccant
wheels for their mechanical system because it is more costly for the equipment and
perhaps in the long run for maintenance. As will be shown through my research of this
depth area, the cost of the air handler and wheel will be lower and the energy savings is
enormous.
Another issue that seems to arise about desiccant wheels in laboratory applications is
the fact that cross contamination could occur and harmful gases can leak through the
exhaust stream back into the supply air stream. This also will be proven false for my
application to the Olin Lab, therefore proving the addition of the wheels to be beneficial
to the Florida Institute of Technology.
4.1 Introduction of Desiccant Wheels to All the Air Handling Units
My first task was to find a desiccant wheel that would be capable to fit into my existing
air handling units. Since I have eight M – Series Trane Air Handling Units, my first
option was to look at their manufacturing catalogs to see if a wheel was available for
purchase or if it was even an option for the Modular Climate Changers (MCC).
Amy E. Pastor Florida Institute of Technology Mechanical Option F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory
Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 20 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
After a brief chat with a Trane representative, it was determined that they do not offer
that type of product for their MCC units. He did, however, lead me to SEMCO,
manufacturer of desiccant wheels and the Pinnacle Unit with a wheel built into it.
Due to the fact that the existing units in the FIT Olin Lab are brand new, I decided that I
would not replace the whole unit, but just look for a desiccant wheel with casing to add
into the 8 MCC units. SEMCO offers a packaged
energy recovery system that has a desiccant wheel in
casing with optional heating and cooling coils. The
technical guide on SEMCO’s website,
www.semcoinc.com, provided a detailed, step-by-step
way to calculate the size of the Packaged Energy
Recovery System (Figure 4.2) that I would need for
each of the individual MCC units.
Along with a calculation to size the
desiccant wheel, SEMCO offered a way to
calculate the size of the heating and
cooling coil that you would need to
produce the air temperature to remove the
moisture from the air. This was important
to me because I theorized that adding a
desiccant wheel would lower the load on the
heating and cooling coils and therefore, downsize them. This would produce a huge
savings on first cost and on energy.
Figure 4.2: SEMCO Packaged Energy Recovery System
Figure 4.3: SEMCO EP Series, No Coils
Amy E. Pastor Florida Institute of Technology Mechanical Option F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory
Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 21 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
Since the Trane Units were already equipped with cooling and reheat coils, I chose to
use the described selection process from SEMCO and apply it to the Trane coils. I then
would double check my answers based on Trane’s selection standards for cooling and
heating coils. Also, since the Trane Units were equipped with coils, I was able to select
the EP Series of the Energy Recovery System because it offered the most flexibility and
lowest cost. Figure 4.3 shows the diagram for the SEMCO EP Series without coils.
After selecting the size of the Energy Recovery System that I would need for each air
handler, the problem arose as to how I was going to insert these into the existing Trane
Units. Compatibility was not a problem; a Trane representative sent me to the SEMCO
site for the desiccant wheels. Since the Modular Climate Changer Units are built–up air
handlers, each section is attached to each other with nuts and bolts. The build–up of
my specific units is as follows:
Fan Mixing Box (FMB) Cartridge Filter (CF) Cooling Coil (CC) Small Access (SAC) Reheat Coil (RHC) Fan (FAN)
Since the desiccant wheel requires both cooling and heating coils for proper moisture
removal, I decided to split the system between the cartridge filter and the cooling coil.
This would allow me to insert the EP Series Energy Recovery System and allow for the
heating and cooling coils to be used.
Figure 4.4a and 4.4b are typical air handling unit as they currently existing in the FIT
Olin Lab. The room shown in 4.4a is the First Floor Mechanical Room on the left side of
the building, Room 134. Figure 4.4b is the second mechanical room on the First Floor,
Room 116.
Amy E. Pastor Florida Institute of Technology Mechanical Option F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory
Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 22 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
As you can clearly see, the spaces allotted for the mechanical rooms are big enough to
house the existing equipment only. Therefore, upon insertion of the Desiccant System
into the existing Air Handling Units, I came across a space problem. The Energy
Recovery System package did not fit in the room. Even with the downsizing of the
cooling and heating coils, the space cleared up by the removal of a few rows of coils did
not equate to the space I would need for the ER Package. This problem could be
resolved by moving the exterior wall out by several feet. The extension of the wall
would allow for the exterior door to be moved and the Desiccant Wheel and necessary
equipment to be placed in without problem.
Appendix D contains all of my detailed excel spreadsheets for my process of selecting
the desiccant wheels for each of the Trane MCCs. It also contains the charts and graphs
from the SEMCO cutsheets that were actually used in these calculations. As can be seen
in Appendix E, a total of 416.97 tons of cooling can be saved by adding a desiccant
wheel in the form of the SEMCO EP Series Energy Recovery System Unit. As for cost, a
total of $166,787.00 (based on $400/ton of cooling) can be saved on coil load alone.
This reduction will be found in the first cost.

4.2 Construction and Structural Issues
Since the FIT Olin Lab is currently in construction and almost 100% complete, a
renovation would need to be done for the mechanical rooms. The sizes of the desiccant
wheel packages that are to be inserted into the mechanical rooms range from 16’ – 10”
to 19’ – 3”. This posed as a problem because there was no room in the existing space to
put in these units. Along with the lost space from the insertion of the units comes the
addition of several thousand pounds. For this reason, I would need to look at the
structural system of the building and the first cost associated with a renovation. I had
not chosen to do structural or construction management as breadth options; however,
since these issues needed to be addressed, I have touched upon them briefly in this
section.
The first floor mechanical rooms are on the back corners of the building, Room 134 on
the back left of the building and Room 116 on the back right of the building. The
extension of the second mechanical room wall, Room 116 (Figure 4.4b), would pose no
issue because there is enough space on the exterior of the building for the exterior wall
to be moved. This concurrently would then allow the mechanical room above it on the
second and third floors (Rooms 214 and 319) to be extended too. The length of the
desiccant wheel packages that need to be inserted can be found in Figure 4.5 below. As
you can see, the longest unit of the three stacked mechanical rooms would be 19’ – 3”.
Therefore, for safety purposes and for margins of error, I would ask that the exterior
wall for Mechanical Rooms 116, 214 and 319 be extended 20’ – 6”.
Amy E. Pastor Florida Institute of Technology Mechanical Option F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory
Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 24 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
For Mechanical Room 249, which lies in the middle of the very back of the FIT Olin
Lab, an extension of the exterior wall would need to be completed by approximately
18’ – 6”.
My real problem lies in the mechanical rooms that are on the bottom left corner of the
FIT Lab. As you can see from the site plan in Figure 4.6, the Chiller Building that
supplies the chilled water to the air
handling units in the Lab Building
lies only 16’ away from that exterior
wall. Mechanical Room 134 holds
AHU 1–1 and AHU 1–2. The
minimum amount of space that the
exterior wall would need to move
out would be 18’ – 0”. This could not
happen because of the Chiller Building. Since the first floor mechanical room could not
be moved, the two other mechanical rooms stacked above it, Rooms 230 and 344,
would not be able to provide the necessary room. Another alternative setup would need
to be devised so that the desiccant systems can fit on that half of the building.

Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 25 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
The only costs associated with the extension of a wall would be the first cost of
materials, demolition, removal of materials from the site and labor. Since these are only
first costs, the payback associated with these compared to the amount of energy cost
savings predicted as above ($166,787.00) would be minimal.
4.3 Ductwork Layout and Changes
Due to the fact that I have not changed the sizes of any of the laboratory or classroom
spaces, the amount of supply air that is provided by the air handling units would not
change. My fan size and the amount of air supplied by it would not be affected by the
addition of a desiccant wheel.
Because I would be breaking apart the existing unit and adding the ER System into it,
some transition ductwork would be necessary for connection of the two pieces of
equipment. The amount of ductwork needed was very minimal and would not have an
adverse affect on the cost of the building’s mechanical system.
4.4 VOC Sensors and Cross Contamination
As with any laboratory, issues will arise with the amount of chemical fumes that are
being released by the building and the equipment inside of it. 25 of the 35 laboratory
spaces are equipped with fume hoods. These fume hoods, used for chemical and
physical science lab tests, are controlled by Phoenix Valves that modulate the amount of
exhaust needed based on position of the fume hood’s sash. When a sash is in use, a
scientist typically has the sash in the fully opened or 80% open position. The control
valve will read this positioning. The valve then varies the amount of exhaust needed.
As a room becomes unoccupied, it is hoped that the scientists would fully close the sash
Amy E. Pastor Florida Institute of Technology Mechanical Option F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory
Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 26 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
or close it to a 20% open position. The process of closing or partially closing the fume
hoods makes for a huge energy savings on the FIT Olin Lab and helps to keep the
exhaust gases from leaking back into the space.
With the addition of a desiccant system, the exhaust or return air line must be used so
that a reheating process can occur and the moisture collected on the wheel by the
supply air can be evaporated. If the exhaust line is contaminated with chemical fumes,
this can cause a potential cross contamination problem. Cross contamination is the
leaking of harmful chemical gases into the supply air stream that is used to condition
occupied spaces.
There are many pieces of literature regarding the issues of cross contamination and
desiccant systems with the use of exhaust from a laboratory space. However, all the
literature does not choose one side or the other. It is all dependent on the application
and the specific building type. A cross contamination issue will only occur if the
equipment installed is put in improperly.
For this reason, I have paid close attention to how my desiccant system was set up.
Using many resources, including the expertise of one particular engineer at Hammel,
Green and Abrahamson (HGA), I learned that there are three or four ways for cross
contamination to occur, each of which must be individually addressed.
The first way for cross contamination to occur is for exhaust air to leak into the supply
air by way of the seals in the wheel. The leakage problem, which occurs at the
perimeter of the wheel as it rotates, can be solved by controlling the relative air
pressures such that the air leaks in the opposite way you are concerned. For example,
Amy E. Pastor Florida Institute of Technology Mechanical Option F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory
Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 27 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
in this application, I would cause the supply air to leak into the exhaust air by making
the pressure greater on the exhaust side.
Another way for cross contamination to occur is for chemicals to stick to the wheel on
the exhaust side and get thrown off into the supply air side as it rotates around. This
will not happen because of the purge section where the air blows backwards across the
wheel as it transitions between the dirty and clean side. Most of the harmful particles
will get purged off. SEMCO guarantees that no more than 0.0005% will be stuck on
the wheel.
One other way for cross contamination to occur is for the bad chemicals to get
absorbed into the desiccant and then release on the other side. Most of the chemicals
used in laboratories have a large chemical structure and are not an issue; they will stay
in the exhaust stream and not get stuck in the desiccant. I have solved this problem by
choosing a wheel that has a desiccant coating with only 3–angstrom sized openings.
The chemicals physically do not fit in these size openings.
There are times when other chemicals with smaller structures will be used and these
structures will fit into the 3–angstrom sized openings. Although the list of chemicals is
much smaller, radon and ammonia are included on it. These will pass through very
easily. However, if you look at the system as a whole, with all the exhaust streams
coming together, with the chemical needing to pass through a fume hood and with all
the ductwork that the chemical will actually be going through, the exhaust air stream is
very safe. SEMCO can guarantee only 0.005% crossover. The system can be tested
every five years to make sure it is still within that range.

Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 28 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
Finally, regarding corrosion, it was found that the dilution level of laboratory exhaust is
so great that the exhaust air stream is relatively harmless.
4.5 Conclusions of Mechanical Depth
My final conclusions for my mechanical depth work is that the addition of a desiccant
wheel into the 8 existing Modular Climate Changers is a cost–saving and energy saving
decision. 416.97 tons of cooling, or $166,787.00, will be saved on this addition. With
space being an issue, renovations would need to be conducted as well as structural
studies for the additional weight added to the building.
Secondly, there will not need to be any ductwork sizing or layout changes because all of
the work was done in the mechanical room. The size or usage of the rooms throughout
the FIT Lab has not changed, therefore, not changing their air flow requirements. The
slight alteration that I have made to the units requires a minimal amount of ductwork
and would not be a huge factor in the overall cost.
Lastly, the addition of a desiccant wheel to a laboratory application and the continuing
debate on cross contamination is resolved by taking a few simple steps. The selection of
my wheel was based on size of the desiccant coating, i.e. the size of the opening on the
wheel. A change in relative air pressure to cause the supply air to leak into the exhaust
stream and not vice versa will prevent leakage into the supply air stream. The purge
section of the wheel prevents the dirty side of the desiccant wheel to become “clean”
before rotating to the supply air side.

5.0 Breadth Work – Electrical Redesign
As one of the breadth portions of my Senior Thesis, I have chosen to perform an
electrical redesign of the panel boards supplying power to my 8 air handling units.
With the addition of new equipment and the downsizing of the cooling and heating
coils in the existing air handlers, I wanted to make sure that the panel boards complied
with the National Electric Code (NEC).
My first step was to find out what portion of the electrical load for the 8 air handling
units was contributed by the coils. With this information, I would be able to neglect
that part of the load and add in the new load for the smaller coils. Appendix F is the
existing 6 panel boards that contain all eight air handlers. For reference now, I have
included the load information for each of the air handlers in Figure 5.1 below.
The only electrical pieces of equipment in my air handlers are the heating and cooling
coils and the fan. It was suggested that an assumption of 35% of the total electrical load
found on the panel boards would be dedicated to the coils.
The next step taken was to calculate the electrical load from the new cooling and
heating coils due to the insertion of a Desiccant Wheel. Referring back to Appendix D,
which is the Desiccant Wheel Selection spreadsheets, the new coil sizes can be found.
Figure 5.1: Electrical Load from Air Handling Units
Amy E. Pastor Florida Institute of Technology Mechanical Option F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory
Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 30 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
With this information, I was able to determine the new electrical load that would be on
the panel board due to the coils themselves.
Figure 5.1 is a summary of the calculations done so far for my electrical breadth.
Included in the figure is the information for the total electrical load currently on the
panel, the coil electrical load, the new electrical load from the downsized coils and the
new total load from the air handling units.
Appendix G concludes my Electrical Breadth with the newly sized panels as they would
be in the FIT Olin Lab. Figure 5.2 is a summary of the panel boards with proof that they
are compliant with the NEC or a suggestion to make them compliant. Issues arose with
the two panel boards that contained two air handling units (OSB1 and OSB2).
Resolving this issue would be as easy as using two panel boards conjoined to supply the
need load to the units.

6.0 Breadth Work – Acoustics
When designing a mechanical room, special attention must be paid to the design of the
walls and their transmittance. When a critical space is located on the other side of a
mechanical room, such as a classroom or lecture hall, the noise level that is produced
by the machine and how much of that can be heard from the adjoining spaces is very
important. Since I will be introducing a new piece of equipment into an existing
mechanical room, an acoustical analysis was done to see that the transmittance through
the wall is still below the necessary level.
Using the Trane Acoustics Program (TAP), I have performed this analysis. I feel that
this is a very accurate analysis due to the fact that one of the options for air handling
units was specifically the Modular Climate Changer. This, along with the acoustical
data for the air handlers from a Trane representative, proved to complete the necessary
parts of the critical acoustics path used to determine the transmittance level.
In Appendix H at the end of this report, a full set of Sound Transmittance Class (STC)
and Room Criteria (RC) curves can be found. These curves, along with the data printed
out for each newly redesigned mechanical room, show that the transmittance level
through the walls does not exceed the necessary levels for a classroom. This is mainly
due to the fact that the added Desiccant Wheel Package does not have any critically
loud pieces of equipment. Another main reason is that the existing units were designed
specifically to a lower decibel level for each octave band. The engineers at TLC already
took into account that the mechanical rooms would be next to a teaching space.

7.0 Conclusions
With my thesis finished and all of my calculations compiled, I was able to step back and
look as this project as a whole. I was extremely pleased with myself, with the faculty in
the Architectural Engineering Department and with the courses offered by the
Architectural Engineering Department. It is unusual to have such a successful program
and it was all thanks to the faculty and the students, past, present and future, that make
up the AE Department.
With the strength of mechanical department and its faculty, I was able to go through
five years of intense courses teaching me every aspect of the mechanical building
systems. With the uniqueness of the architectural engineering department at Penn
State, I was able to understand and complete redesigns and analyses on my building
from other options besides mechanical. Finally, with my own strengths and the
strengths of the other AE students, I was able to complete a full year thesis because of
the uniqueness and strengths of this program.
My final conclusions for the F.W. Olin Science Lab are that the addition of Desiccant
Wheels into each of the air handling units would be a cost and energy savings option.
416.97 tons of cooling are saved from the air handlers because of the addition of a
desiccant wheel and almost $168,000.00 was saved by this reduction in tonnage. With
careful installation and precise steps, the insertion of the Desiccant System proves to be
safe against cross contamination from the harmful chemical gases removed by the
exhaust stream. Pressurizing one side of the wheel to have the air leak from the supply
side to the exhaust side, including a purge section in the system and sizing the desiccant
Amy E. Pastor Florida Institute of Technology Mechanical Option F.W. Olin Physical Science Laboratory
Olin Science Laboratory Pastor 33 Thesis Advisor – Dr. Jim Freihaut April 8, 2005
coating for 3–angstroms will satisfy the requirements to keep the supply air to the
occupied spaces clean.
The electrical panel boards containing the air handling units were redesigned to
include the Desiccant Wheel Systems. Four of the six existing panel boards were
capable of holding the newly installed systems. The remaining two will need to be
resized or changed to a dual panel board.
The acoustical properties of the Energy Recovery Systems are so slight that the
transmittance of sound from the mechanical rooms to the classroom spaces adjacent to
the mechanical rooms does not increase enough to redesign the walls and their
insulation values. This was mainly due to the careful attention to detail by the
engineers at TLC – Cocoa. Their initial design of the air handling units took the
adjoining classroom and lecture hall spaces into account. The existing air handlers
were sized and options were selected so that the equipment would be extremely quiet.

Determine fan total static pressure (TSP) by adding the ISP to therequired external static pressure.
ex. SA side TSP is 2.58" + 1" = 3.58" RA side TSP is 1.84" + .5" = 2.34"
Select unit size from Table 1 based on the larger supply air (SA) orreturn air (RA) cfm required. Then select the smallest unit which meetsthe required task, since it will provide the most cost-effective selection.
ex. If 7000 cfm SA at 1-inch external static pressure and 6000 cfm RA at.5-inch external static pressure is required, then select size 9 based on7000 cfm.
EP Detailed Selection Procedure
Select unit configuration(EP, EPH, EPC, EPCH or EPHC) basedon project requirements (see page 6 and 7 for guidance).
ex. Select EPHC if a year-round controlled SA condition is desired.
Use Table 4 (page 24) to determine the internal static pressures(ISP) for both the SA and RA sides of the unit.
ex. In an indoor unit, the ISP for the SA side of the EPCH-9 at 7000 cfmis 2.54 inches. The ISP for the RA side of the EP-9 at 6000 cfm is 1.81inches.

Determine motor horsepower based on the unit’s basic fan size,total fan airflow and TSP from the fan data table on pages 26-31.The minimum motor horsepower is the fan brake horsepower plus10 percent to allow for drive loss and safety factors. An optionalextended range fan (shown as size X or XX) is offered for most modelsizes. This fan offers horsepower savings depending on exactperformance required. However, an increase in unit size is possible.
ex. Using a size 9 fan, the SA fan brake horsepower is 6.9 based on 7900cfm at 3.58 in.wg. static pressure. This would require a minimum 10 hpmotor. The RA fan brake horsepower is 4.0 based on 6900 cfm at 2.34in.wg. static pressure. This would require a minimum of 5.0 hp motor.
Find the base wheel effectiveness percentage from Table 1 based onthe model selected and the smaller SA or RA cfm.
ex. Base effectiveness for EP-9 based on 6000 cfm is 78 percent.
Determine summer and winter SA conditions, based on designtemperatures and SA efficiency by using Equation 1 from Figure 1.(See page 6 for EP configuration.)
TTTTTable 2. able 2. able 2. able 2. able 2. Supply Air Efficiency Chart Figure 1:
Equation 1:XSA
= XOA - ESA(XOA - XRA)
Equation 2:XEA = XRA + ESA(XOA - XRA)
X = dry bulb temperature (°F) or moisture content (gr/lb) orenthalpy (BTU/lb).
Notes:For SA efficiency use SA cfm/RA cfm.For RA efficiency use RA cfm/SA cfm.
ex. The following design condition example and a 70 percent SA efficiencyare determined below:
Equation 1 for summer dry bulb:SA(DB TEMP) = 95° - .70 (95°-75°) = 81°F
Equation 1 for summer humidity:SA(GRAINS) = 117 gr - .70 (117gr - 63 gr) = 79 gr
Example 1Example 1Example 1Example 1Example 1
Determine SA efficiency from Table 2 and their cfm ratio.
ex. SA efficiency would be approximately 70 percent interpolating fromTable 2 for a base wheel effectiveness of 78 percent and a SA/RA ratio of7000 cfm/6000 cfm = 1.17.

ex. For the EPCH-9, use a 10-hp SA fan, a 7.5-hp RA fan, a variablespeed wheel and 240 volt/3 phase/60-cycle power.
From Electrical Data Table:
Full Load Ampacity10-hp SA fan 28.0 amps5-hp RA fan 15.2 ampsWheel VFD 4.4 ampsControl power 0.8 ampsTotal FLA’s 48.4 amps
Minimum Circuit AmpacityFLA from above 48.4 amps25% of largest motor 7.0 ampsTotal MCA 55.4 amps
Maximum Overcurrent Protection(MOCP)FLA from above 48.4 amps75% of largest motor 14.0 ampsMOCP* 62.4 amps
*Select the next larger sized time delay fuse.
Estimate unit SA conditions using the cooling coil table (page33) and the heating coil tables (page 35).
Select unit voltage and determine power requirements from theElectrical Data Table on page 38.
Determine the need for variable speed option on the wheel.
ex. If the 7000 cfm EP unit supplies preconditioned outdoor air directly toan air-conditioned space, the unit's full capacity will be required in thecooling season. On cool days, the unit may have the capacity to provideSA conditions above the desired setpoint design, such as 65°F, with a desired55°F SA setpoint. To provide better control of the unit’s SA conditions,the variable speed option should be selected. This option can also be usedto provide frost protection for the wheel. (See also the SEMCO EnergyRecovery Wheel Technical Guide for a complete discussion of wheelperformance and controls.)

Electrical Data
Note 1: To determine Minimum Circuit Ampacity, add the FLA’s for each fan motor, the FLA ofthe constant speed wheel motor or the Variable Frequency Drive. Then add the CPT amps and25 percent of the largest motor FLA.
Note 2: Fuse Recommendations: Size fuses at the unit FLA and 75% of the largest motor FLA,then select the next larger size Dual-Element, Time-Delay Fuses (LOW-PEAK©, FUSETRON©or equivalent). If the fuses don’t hold, consult N.E.C. for suitability of larger sized fuses.
Note 3: Use a 3KVA transformer for units with 120 volt lights. Otherwise use the 180 VAtransformer.
