Dx Air Handler

A Rooftop HVAC Unit, commonly known as a rooftop unit (RTU), is a self-contained heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system designed to be installed on the roof of commercial, industrial, and sometimes residential buildings. These units are widely used to provide efficient climate control for large spaces and are an integral part of modern building HVAC systems.

Overview

 

A DX Air Handler is an HVAC system component that cools (or heats) air by using a refrigerant-based DX coil. Unlike water-cooled systems that rely on a chilled water loop, a DX air handler uses refrigerant directly, making it a compact and cost-effective solution for small to moderate cooling loads.

Ps:1.The above correction factors are determined based on the average values of various units. For small units (05~15), multiply by 0.95; for large units (50-200), multiply by 1.08.
2.The above correction factors are approximate values and are for reference only.

 

Correction under different wind speeds, inlet air temperature, and water temperature conditions:

Actual cooling capacity = Cooling capacity from Table 1 × K1 × K3
Actual water flow = Water flow from Table 1 × K1 × K3
Actual water resistance = Water resistance from Table 1 × K2 × K4

 

Example: Selecting YG-20 air conditioner, the cooling coil face wind speed is 2.5 m/s. According to Table 1, the cooling capacity is 150.8 kW, water flow is 26.21 m³/h, and water resistance is 14.07 kPa. Determine the actual cooling capacity, water flow, and water resistance when the inlet air dry-bulb temperature is 27°C, wet-bulb temperature is 21°C, inlet water temperature is 7°C, and outlet water temperature is 12°C.

 

Solution: From Table K1, the correction factor K1 = 1.14. From Table K2, the correction factor K2 = 1.27.
Therefore:

Actual cooling capacity (Q) = Standard condition cooling capacity × K1 = 150.8 × 1.14 = 171.91 kW
Actual water flow (V) = Standard condition water flow × K1 = 26.21 × 1.14 = 29.88 m³/h
Actual water resistance (P) = Standard condition water resistance × K2 = 14.07 × 1.27 = 17.87 kPa

Key Features of dx air handler

 

 

●Direct Expansion Coil:
The core of the system is a DX coil where refrigerant evaporates (in cooling mode) or condenses (in heating mode) to directly exchange heat with the air.

●Compact and Simplified Design:
Without the need for additional components like chillers, pumps, and extensive piping, DX air handlers have a smaller footprint and can be easier to install.

●Efficient Air Distribution:
Equipped with fans or blowers, the unit draws in return air, filters it, and passes it over the DX coil before distributing the conditioned air throughout the building.

●Zoned Control:
DX air handlers can often be configured to serve individual zones, allowing for independent temperature control in different areas of a building.

●Quick Response:
The direct refrigerant cycle provides rapid cooling or heating, improving occupant comfort by quickly responding to changes in load conditions.

 

Applications of Rooftop HVAC Units

●Commercial Buildings:
Ideal for offices, retail spaces, and restaurants where centralized chilled water systems are not justified by the cooling load.

●Residential Complexes:
Often used in multi-family or high-rise residential settings for efficient, localized air conditioning.

●Mixed-Use Developments:
Suitable for buildings with diverse occupancy patterns that require zoned air conditioning.
