Abstract
The usage of most accurate weather data enables to reduce safety factors in heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) designs, resulting in better HVAC dimensioning and consequently reducing operational costs and saving energy. The last is one of the main priorities in the building sector. This manuscript aims at presenting a web system named DwpGen for weather data processing to HVAC design, following the criteria established by American Society of Heating, Ventilating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers. Design data for cooling and dehumidification for 3 Brazilian cities were calculated and compared with those recommended by the Brazilian air conditioning standard, as one functionality of this software.
