Brief Description
The test case represents a single zone retail store located in New York City, New York, USA. The construction, internal load, and occupancy schedules are based on the U.S. DOE prototype building model for a single store within the retail strip mall building complying with ASHRAE Standard 90.1 2019. The floor area is 348.4 m2 and the south facade has windows at a window-to-wall ratio of 26%.
The HVAC system is a single variable-air-volume (VAV) rooftop unit (RTU) with supply fan, direct expansion (DX) cooling coil, and gas furnace heating coil. The embedded control uses a thermostat in the zone for multi-stage control of the supply fan and DX coil, and single-stage control for the heating coil.
