Thebuilding is owned by the hospital.A 656 bed facility, the hospital is one of Canada’s largest acute care facilities. The hospitalleadership had a vision of “lean, green and digital,” with a goal of reinventing patient care.

The facility achieved many milestones in meeting that vision, including:• Being the first fully digital hospital in North America• Largest modular green roof installation in Canada• Largest installation of electrochromic glass in North America• 100 percent outside air operation for improved indoor air quality and infection control

The building is designed to exceed ASHRAE Standard 90.1-2007, Energy Standard forBuildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings, by 40 percent. Several approaches were usedto achieve this goal, including an integrated heating and cooling plant with highly efficientventilation equipment and distribution; air side enthalpy recovery; enhanced building envelopedesign that incorporates automatically adjusting electromechanical glass to reduce solar gainduring peak cooling times; and a lighting design featuring controls accessed via patient bedsidecomputer terminal, which achieves a lighting power density 46 percent lower than Standard90.1-2007.To enhance infection control and indoor air quality, all air handling units supply 100 percentfresh air with no recirculation.

Mr. Monteiro willpresent the award winning projectand review what led to the success ofthe project and the ASHRAE SocietyTechnology Award.

Also for the November programmeeting, ASHRAE SocietyPresident Sheila Hayter willpresent her presidential theme“Building Our Energy Future”.President Hayter will discuss whatbuildings professionals need to knowto prepare for changes to theelectricity sector. The discussion willinclude a review of the electrical gridas we know it today, changes thatare coming for the future and whatwe need to consider in order to getthere. Please go to our website atwww.ashrae.ottawa.on.ca and click

4 Capital Communiqué November 2018

The October program meeting ofthe 2018/2019 ASHRAE season washeld at the Centurion Conference& Event Center on ColonnadeRoad, and the theme for the eveningwas Research Promotion andDonor Recognition. The meetingwas attended by fifty-six guests,which consisted of forty-sevenmembers and eight guests. Theprogram for the evening wasDesigning buildings for people.The speaker was Liam O’Brien,P.Eng, Ph.D. an AssociateProfessor at Carleton University’sArchitectural Conservation andSustainability Engineeringprogram.

President Dan Redmond called themeeting to order, and introduced theExecutive and Board ofGovernors. Secretary AdrianneMitani introduced the guests for theevening.

Student Activities Chair ElizabethPrimeau spoke about starting up thenew Student Branch at QueensUniversity and the Earl of Marchtour at Modern Niagara.Algonquin College’s ASHRAEstudent project is also underwaywith Chris Frauley mentoring thestudents. President-Elect AaronDobson spoke about the currentResearch Promotion campaign,and the raffle for tickets to theOttawa Senators’ game November4th in Club Bell, donated byModern Niagara. The Researchpromotion has been formed and willsoon be reaching out aboutdonations to this year’s campaign.

Aaron Dobson spoke about lastyear’s research promotioncampaign, and recognizedcompanies and individuals from lastyear. The campaign results from the2017-2018 year was a record for thechapter, and the Ottawa chapterwas recognized as being one of thetop three of all ASHRAE chapters

for funds raised.

Dinner was an assorted buffet withcake and coffee served for dessert.President Dan Redmond announcedthe program topic and introduced thespeaker, Professor Liam O’Brien,who is a past recipient of ASHRAEresearch funding. Approximately$100,000 of ASHRAE Researchfunding from over the years has gonetowards Carleton graduate studentprojects, many who have gone on tobecome professors themselves.

The presentation was on DesigningBuildings for People. The majorityof Liam’s research incorporatesusing people as sensors, sincebuilding comfort is a subjectivestudy. Building controls can be fullymanual and controlled directly bybuilding operators or users, or theycan be fully automated with littleinput by those who operate or usethem. Neither option is a perfectsystem, and the goal of the researchis to balance between automationand user input. This is becausepeople want control and are morecomfortable when they are able tohave control over their environment.

People were asked what makes agood workspace, both in studies andin online polling that went acrossCanada, and many responses variedwidely. Lighting for instance for aworkplace is recommended to bebetween 400-500 levels, butpreferred values are a wide range ofpreferences that make it hard to givean exact number that will meeteveryone’s needs.

Thermal comfort as defined byASHRAE 55 is an adaptive model forpreferred indoor temperature andhumidity, which is dependent on theoutdoor temperature. This is due tothe way that people dress and whattemperature ranges are normalbased on the season.

The WELL standard, similar toLEED, is a standard for buildings thattakes into account the qualities of air,water, nourishment, light, fitness,comfort, and mind for the occupantsof a building. These are importantbecause in the end a building is forpeople to reside within. This leads totwo models of building design, onewith the occupants as a boundarycondition to the building, the other isa two-way interaction between theoccupants and the building whichadapts to the requirements of theusers.

When we look at ASHRAE 55, thedefinition of thermal comfort isinherently subjective and it is acondition of mind from the occupantto define what comfortable is.Therefore, without feedback from theoccupant it can never be solved fully.

Therefore, Liam proposes hisconcept of Humans as Sensors andthe feedback loop of informationfrom the occupant to the buildingautomation and back. With systeminteraction with users to provideinput, allow for logic of the buildingsystem to react, and to also providefeedback to the users to indicate thatinput is received and the system isreacting to accommodate. One of theproblems with energy efficient andautomatic systems, is that there isno feedback to the users, with lowtemperature water system, notwarming quickly to the touch, orquiet HVAC systems don’t hiss air orrumble when turning on.

When a building is normally fullyoccupied, Professor O’Brienstipulates that there is little benefit

with individualized controls, smalllighting zones, and demandventilation, the benefit and savingsonly comes into effect when thereare large swings in occupancy levels,and people constantly movingaround which allows energy to bespent where the users are.

There were ten questions for thespeaker, including questions aboutan active cooling chair, overheadversus task lighting, with taskusually preferred to be able to

customize requirements. Heatingand cooling people versus buildings,in the example of the individualheating and cooling chairs, whichwas a ongoing study and does nothave enough data. He was askedabout user interfaces and theability for users to understand, whichbrought up the energy literacyproblem. This is why feedback tothe user is important to ensure thatthe user is also learning how thesystem is working not just thesystem reacting to the user.

President Dan Redmond thankedLiam O’Brien and gave him a gift onbehalf of the chapter, and remindedattendees of the survey which willbe emailed. The next meeting isNovember 20th at the CenturionConference and Event Center withpresentations from ASHRAEPresident Sheila Hayter and KurtMonteiro on a Canadian ASHRAETechnology Award winningproject.
