Abstract

This paper presents a case study regarding the modernization of the air conditioning system that attends the neonatal intensive care unit and obstetrical center of the Hospital of Clinics of Uberlândia for better use of the engine room and ease of performing preventive and corrective maintenance. This is due to the demands around a hospital environment, ranging from thermal comfort to the guarantee of internal air quality levels specified by technical norms in order to promote the health of patients and employees. In this way, through the equation of the total thermal load, it was possible to evaluate the energy demand required for each environment and thus propose a new equipment solution. Also, a change was made in the layout of the pipelines so that there are reserves rooms in case some fan-coil stop regardless of the situation. Thus, this new air conditioning project is available to the managers of Bioengineering to make the environment in question more efficient, safe and comfortable for users.
