GENERAL OVERVIEW
Traditional HVAC systems in most commercial buildings today employ Overhead Mixing (Mixed Ventilation, MV) to meet
both outdoor air ventilation and space conditioning requirements, providing a mixture of fresh outdoor air and recirculated
A air to the occupied space. Displacement Ventilation (DV) was first introduced in Europe in the 1970’s and more recently has
gained popularity in North America as advanced ventilation approaches to meet the Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) requirements
of green building strategies and the need to lower energy consumption via the HVAC system gain popularity.
DV systems deliver low velocity (typically 40 fpm average
GENERAL OVERVIEW
face velocity) conditioned air directly to the occupied

space close to floor level, relying on the buoyancy forces
of air to drive air motion. As the cool supply air from
the displacement unit travels across the floor, it is pulled
towards a heat source within the room (such as people,
computers and other electronics) and entrained into the
thermal plume caused by a low pressure region around the
heat source (see Fig. 1).
When the cool supply air encounters these heat sources
and begins to warm, the thermal plume displaces the warm
air upwards towards the exhaust openings located at or
near the ceiling, producing a stratified temperature zone
divided into two regions. The lower region is referred to as
the “occupied zone", where people, office furniture and
other equipment reside, and the upper region is referred
to as the “unoccupied zone", and is the layer where heat,

and subsequently pollutants and contaminates, rise and are
exhausted.
When compared to a conventional MV system, DV uses a combination of warmer supply air and lower pressures, resulting
in potential energy savings through longer economizer periods, increased chiller efficiencies and lower horsepower fans.
Further fan energy savings may be realized with DV as the supply air volume only has to deal with the load in the occupied
zone when stratification is taken advantage of, unlike MV where the whole room is mixed. The occupied zone for DV does
not see the load from the light and this load only needs to be dealt with at the AHU. IAQ benefits are achieved through
the superior air quality of the breathing zone, quieter operation of DV vs. MV systems and the enhanced thermal comfort
of occupants due to less draft and lower percentages of people
dissatisfied, as detailed per ASHRAE Standard 55.
Additionally, ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2013, Table 6.2.2.2,
rates displacement ventilation systems with a Zone Air Distribution
Effectiveness (EZ) factor of 1.2. EZ as an indicator of the quality
of supply air distribution in ventilated rooms compared to a
perfect air mixing condition, which can be used as an indicator
of air quality and human exposure. A traditional overhead
mixing system can have an EZ between 0.8 – 1.0, depending
on supply air temperatures. The higher rating of displacement
systems translates to a lower volume of fresh air to meet ASHRAE
62.1 requirements, and can also assist engineers and owners in
achieving certain LEED® green building program goals.
Nailor Industries has developed a complete line of engineered
Displacement Diffusers with a pleasing aesthetic design to suit
any application. Rigorous lab testing combined with the latest in
computational theory, high quality manufacturing and the Nailor
commitment to providing quality Air Distribution solutions result
in one of the industry’s finest selection of Displacement Diffusers

DISPLACEMENT VENTILATION
In fluid mechanics, the term displacement refers to a measureable volume of a fluid moved (or displaced) by an object A
immersed in the body of the fluid. According to Archimedes’ Principle, if the object weighs more than the volume of fluid
displaced, the buoyancy forces acting on the object by the fluid are less than the weight (due to gravity) of the object, causing
the object to sink.
CONSIDER THIS...
ENGINEERING GUIDE
What is the driving factor of lift in a hot air balloon? (Fig. 2) Buoyancy Forces! When a fluid, air in this case, is heated up,
it becomes less dense than the surrounding fluid. The heat causes the molecules to move at a higher rate, increasing the
pressure near the top of the inside of the balloon. Once this pressure becomes large enough to overcome the weight due to
gravity of the balloon, the buoyancy forces create lift. When the hot air balloon remains at a constant elevation, the pressure
inside the balloon is in equilibrium with the surrounding atmosphere. In order for the balloon to descend, the pressure inside
the balloon must be reduced until the weight of the balloon overcomes the buoyant force of the air inside (Fig. 2).
Buoyancy Weight due

Forces Going Up! Leveled Off! Going Down! to gravity
Fig. 2 - Buoyancy forces of air

This can be directly related to Displacement Ventilation. As cool, dense supply air discharges from the diffuser, it is physically
heavier than the warmer room air, causing it to sink to the floor. From there, the air travels along the floor as it is drawn
towards convective heat sources such as people, computer equipment and lights. Each heat source generates a convective
plume, driven by buoyancy forces, creating an upward velocity of warm air around the source (Fig. 3). This velocity creates
a low pressure region along the surface of the source creating a constant flow of cool, ventilated supply air entrainment into
the plume, effectively cooling the heat source and providing fresh air to the breathing zone.
HOW DISPLACEMENT VENTILATION DIFFERS FROM OVERHEAD MIXING
Overhead mixing systems utilize high velocity supply discharge air, typically delivered and exhausted at or near ceiling level
(Fig. 4). This high velocity discharge air creates a low pressure region at the outlet of the diffuser near the ceiling surface,
causing induction of room air that mixes with the supply air jet. If designed properly, this constant mixing of room and supply
air generates a near constant temperature gradient from floor to ceiling, resulting in a Zone Air Distribution Effectiveness (EZ)
of 1.0 per ASHRAE 62.1. If not designed properly, potential disadvantages of all-air overhead mixing systems are:
1. Occupant discomfort due to draft.
2. Poor air contaminant removal efficiency.
3. Excessive energy consumption.
Displacement Ventilation is an air distribution system that utilizes low velocity supply air, typically delivered at, or near, floor
level and exhausted at, or near, ceiling level. A short distance from the diffuser face, the air pattern hugs the floor, typically no
more than 8 inches (0.2 m) above the floor surface. Heat sources (people, computers, lights, etc...) create heat plumes within
the space convectively driving the flow of cool supply air from floor to ceiling as it heats up, utilizing natural buoyancy forces
to drive the flow of air through the layers of stratification. This is accomplished with minimal mixing in the occupied space and
therefore yields a higher ventilation effectiveness and higher removal efficiency of airborne contaminants from the occupied

space when compared to an overhead mixing system, improving Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) characteristics. When compared
to typical overhead mixing systems, Displacement Ventilation systems generally have higher Supply Air Temperature’s (SAT)
A that help prevent occupant dissatisfaction due to draft at or near ankle level where air is supplied. However, the overall
temperature gradient within the occupied space must be evaluated to avoid issues of elevated temperatures at or near head
level.

APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS FOR DISPLACEMENT VENTILATION

Schools, Theaters, Hospitals, Casinos, Restaurants, Industrial Facilities, Grocery Stores, Open-Plan Offices.
1. Ceilings are greater than 8 ft (2.4 m) in height.
2. Exhausts are located at or near the ceiling, typically within 1 ft (30 cm) of maximum ceiling height.
3. Contaminants are lighter and/or warmer than supply air.
Note: if one or more of these are not true, overhead mixing system may be more applicable.
TYPICAL DISPLACEMENT VENTILATION DESIGN CONDITIONS
1. Supply Air Temperature (SAT) 63 - 68°F (17 - 20°C).
a. Transient and high cooling load zones may be suitable for the lower SATs.
2. Exhaust Air Temperature (EAT) 78 - 85°F (26 - 29°C).
3. Supply Air Discharge Velocity 40 fpm (0.2 m/s) or less.
a. Increased discharge velocities yield higher sound levels, increased system pressure drop and consequently,
elevated energy consumption. This can also affect IAQ by promoting mixing in the space.
b. Transient and high cooling load zones are suitable for elevated velocities.
4. Maximum Cooling Load (ASHRAE RP-949) 38 Btu/h-ft2 (120 W/m2).
a. Buoyancy forces caused by intensity of the heat generation by heat sources can greatly affect the performance
of a DV system. The above value was determined by studying typical North American school, office and
industrial settings, where metabolic and clothing heat generation rates are well known and studied. This
is the suggested maximum cooling capacity of a DV system while maintaining acceptable thermal comfort
conditions within the occupied space according to ASHRAE Standards.

BENEFITS COMPARED TO OVERHEAD MIXING SYSTEM

1. Zone Air Distribution Effectiveness (EZ) of 1.2 requires 20% less ventilation airflow. A
2. Improved airborne contaminant removal efficiency, improving IAQ (see Fig. 3).
3. LEED® credits applicable to DV.
4. Decreased fan size due to reduced diffuser pressure drops.
5. Increased chiller efficiency realized from elevated supply and exhaust air temperatures.
ENGINEERING GUIDE
6. Lower sound levels in the occupied space.
LIMITATIONS OF DISPLACEMENT VENTILATION
1. Requires separate heating system, typically for perimeter zones (warm supply air short circuits directly to the
ceiling (see Fig. 4).
2. Each diffuser is capable of delivering conditioned air up to 25 - 30 ft (7.6 - 9.1 m) from the diffuser face. If the
space is more than 30 ft (9.1 m) in length or there is more than 30 ft (9.1 m) between diffusers, consider adding
another diffuser on the opposite wall or centered between diffusers for increased system performance (see Fig. 5).
3. Large diffusers can result in potentially obtrusive installations as many are exposed floor standing models (ceiling
and internal sidewall models can alleviate this issue).
4. Zones with higher than normal cooling loads are not recommended for DV due to stratification limits set by industry
standards (ASHRAE 55 and ISO 7730) and overall system performance characteristics.
5. Because these diffusers are installed near floor level, obstructions such as furniture are more prevalent, resulting in
interrupted airflow paths and decreased thermal comfort characteristics.

ENGINEERING GUIDE
Displacement Ventilation is a method of air distribution that has been around for many years, primarily in European markets.
The Federation of European Heating and Air-conditioning Associations (REHVA) developed and published a design guide
A for DV systems in 2002 called “Displacement Ventilation in non-industrial premises." This is a comprehensive guidebook
constructed on decades of scientific research, experience and case studies that goes through all aspects of system design.
It covers the history of displacement, the principles that drive system performance, diffuser characteristics, system design
strategies, energy optimization and control considerations.
ENGINEERING GUIDE
To adapt this technology to more diverse climates realized in North America, further analysis needed to be considered.
The American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) sponsored a research project
(RP-949) “Performance Evaluation and Development for Design Guidelines for Displacement Ventilation" to accomplish
this task. From this study came the ASHRAE design guide for DV published in 2003, “System Performance Evaluation and
Design Guidelines for Displacement Ventilation." This all-encompassing guide goes through an extensive literary review and
utilized a computational fluid dynamic (CFD) modelling approach developed during the study to help create a step-by-step
design process for DV systems in typical North American applications.
The following is a simplified interpretation of the steps required to properly design a DV system in typical North American
applications determined by ASHRAE RP-949:
1. Calculate peak summer cooling load:
At minimum, sum the heat generated by the following:
a. people, desk lamps and electronics, qoe [Btu/h (W)].
b. conduction and solar radiation through building envelope, qex [Btu/h (W)].
c. overhead lighting, ql [Btu/h (W)].
qtotal = qoe + qex + ql
2. Calculate airflow rate required to satisfy peak cooling load assuming (if possible) a maximum of 1.2°F/ft
temperature gradient in the space and standard air:
0.295qoe+0.132ql+0.185qex
Qp = 60pcpΔThf
(IP)
0.295qoe+0.132ql+0.185qex
Qp = pcpΔThf
(SI)
Qp = airflow required to satisfy peak cooling load, [cfm (m3/s)]

p = air density, [lb/ft3 (kg/m3)]
cp = specific heat of air at constant pressure, [Btu/lb°F (kJ/kg-K)]
ΔThf = temperature difference between head and foot height [°F (°C)]
a. The coefficients for the different heat load values are the fraction of the cooling loads that are entering the
space for a seated occupant assuming a maximum of 3.6°F (2°C) temperature gradient from floor to a
seated height of 3.6 ft (1.1 m) specified by ASHRAE 55-2010. Because the temperature gradient between
the seated occupant and standing occupant, at a height of 5.5 ft (1.7 m), is less than that from the floor to the
seated occupant, the given formula should generate a comfortable environment for both seated and standing
occupants.
b. Recent modifications to ASHRAE 55-2013 allows a maximum temperature gradient of 5.4°F (3°C) for seated
occupants and 7.2°F (4°C) for standing occupants. Future studies could result in different cooling load
fractions based on this new information, but should result in more than adequate levels of comfort based on
previous classifications.

3. Calculate minimum ventilation rate to the space required by ASHRAE 62.1-2013 (consult local AHJ for code
compliance) and refer to tables 6.2.2.1 and 6.2.2.2 in the standard for details on specific minimum space type
requirements: A
Rp Pz + RA Az
Qoz = Ez
a. Qoz = minimum zone outdoor (ventilation) airflow, cfm (m3/s)(specified at Voz in 62.1)
ENGINEERING GUIDE
b. Rp = outdoor airflow rate per person, cfm (m3/s)
c. Pz = typical occupancy, No. of people expected to occupy the zone under normal conditions, [person]
d. RA = outdoor air required per unit area, cfm/ft2 (m3/s-m2)
e. Az = zone floor area, ft2 (m2)
f. Ez = zone air distribution effectiveness of specific air distribution system, Ez = 1.2 for DV
4. Total supply airflow is the higher of the two airflows determined by steps 2 & 3:
Qt = Max [Qp, Qoz]
5. Calculate supply air temperature:
q
ts = tsp = Δthf - 2.33Q 2 t (IP)
t + 1.08Q
Az t
q
ts = tsp = Δthf - 0.52Q 2 t (SI)
t + 1.21Q
Az t
a. ts = supply air temperature, °F (°C)

b. tsp = room set point temperature, °F (°C)
c. Δthf = head to floor temperature differential, °F (°C)
Note: The given simplified equation assumes the radiative and convective hear transfer coefficients are equal to
1 Btu/h-ft2-°F (5.678 W/m2-K). Refer to AHSRAE Fundamentals Handbook for more detailed information.
6. Calculate exhaust air temperature:
tq
te = te + 1.08Q t (IP)
qt
te = ts + 1.21Q t (SI)
a. Make sure the vertical temperature gradient is acceptable and supply air temperature does not fall below
63°F (17°C) to avoid issues of over-cooling the zone.
7. Readjust total supply airflow (as required) based on the exhaust temperature found in 6.a.:
qt
Qt = 1.08 (te ̶ ts) (IP)
qt
Qt = 1.21 (te ̶ ts) (SI)
8. Select appropriate diffuser(s) based on diffuser performance and desired layout:

a. The industry standard for determining diffuser layout is Adjacent Zone (AZ). This is the point where terminal
velocity of the diffuser airflow jet reaches a 40 fpm (0.2 m/s) isovel at 1 inch (25 mm) above the floor.
b. Ensure sound and pressure drop performance is acceptable.
c. Consider location of diffusers with respect to occupants and obstructions to maximize thermal comfort
acceptance.

APPLICATIONS & DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
Every HVAC system design begins with an objective approach to problem solving. Designing a system that meets the needs
of model building codes, building occupants and budget constraints of the project is an art. Many factors contribute to the
A choices made during the design phase. More and more today, an integrated approach is utilized to ensure that the design
meets the needs of the owner and occupants and the project scope remains on track with the budgets set during the planning
stages.
Thermal comfort, energy efficiency, and indoor environmental quality (IEQ) are the driving factors in most commercial
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
HVAC designs. Designers are looking towards newer technologies and better practices to achieve a balance between these
factors and operating costs. The development of energy conscious high performance building codes, tightening of building
envelopes, advancement of new building products and the drive to align sustainability in terms of social, environmental and
financial interests has created a greater demand for more efficient HVAC systems.
A properly designed system utilizing displacement diffusers in the appropriate application can meet this demand. Designers
need to be aware of several design and applications considerations and must have a clear objective during the planning
stage in order to successfully integrate displacement diffusers into the HVAC system and achieve the goals set forth by the
owner and project team.
A typical displacement ventilation system supplies cool conditioned air at, or near, floor level. Underfloor, lay-in and duct
mounted diffuser models are also available for various applications. Below we will discuss various types of displacement
diffusers and some considerations that should be considered during design and construction. The size and placement of
displacement diffusers requires coordination with architectural professionals to ensure successful project integration.
Displacement diffusers can be categorized as follows:
•Floor/Free Standing: Diffusers are mounted on top of the floor, against a wall, pillar or corner of a room.
•Wall Mounted: Diffusers are integrated into the wall or millwork.
•Floor Mounted: Diffusers are installed into a raised floor.
•Ceiling Mounted: Diffusers are installed in a suspended ceiling.
•Industrial: Diffusers are designed to perform at higher velocities and in harsh environments.
FLOOR OR FREE STANDING DIFFUSERS
Floor or Free standing displacement diffusers can be rectangular or round and are typically mounted against a wall or
partition, in a corner of the room or free standing toward the middle of a space, and are designed to handle large volumes
of air. Depending on the unit’s configuration, they can provide a 1-way, 3-way or radial air pattern (see Fig. 2).
The configuration of the unit is driven as much by the architectural consideration as it is by the diffusers performance
characteristics. Occupancy types, occupant behavior, space limitations and diffuser location must be carefully contemplated
during the design phase, as well as concessions and trade offs for performance versus aesthetics be weighted. In applications
and designs that are limited in wall space, such
as a classroom or commercial office, corner type
floor standing diffusers may be an ideal solution.
In applications that have a large volume of space
and highly transient pedestrian traffic, such as
airports, free standing centrally located diffusers
may be an ideal solution. 180° 90°
Since displacement diffusers are usually within
reach of room occupants, special considerations
should be taken to protect them from incidental
damages. They can be elevated from the floor,
usually set on factory furnished bases, to prevent
damage from cleaning equipment. The finish of
the diffuser should be rugged enough to prevent
damage from contact, and the construction
should be concealed and tamper proof to prevent
occupant mishandling. 3 Way 360° 1 Way

WALL MOUNTED DIFFUSERS

Wall mounted displacement diffusers can be square or rectangular and mounted flush into the wall, usually between studs, A
or surface mounted, and provide a 1-way air pattern perpendicular to the wall. The most common wall mounted diffusers
feature a small integral plenum with a rectangular inlet to accommodate a duct connection. They are typically mounted at a
sidewall at a specified distance away from occupants who should
be positioned no closer than the adjacent zone of the diffuser.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
A recessed or riser mounted displacement diffuser does not have
a plenum or typical inlet, it is designed for use in field supplied
plenum fed applications such as a stair riser, wall or cabinet.
Surface mounted displacement diffusers feature a steel perforated
face and grille flanged style frame, easily suited for low sidewall
mounting.
Coordination with the Architectural, Plumbing and Electrical design
teams will be required to ensure that integrated wall mounted
diffusers do not interfere with other elements of the building
construction. As these diffusers are usually become part of the wall
construction, a stable occupancy type should be considered as a
layout featuring these diffusers may not be adaptable to diverse
occupant needs. Wall mounted diffusers may not be effective for
“cookie cutter" commercial or industrial lease spaces, especially
if tenant requirements are unknown to the design team and there
is little interaction between the design team, building owner
and building occupants before, during and after the design and
Example of an internal wall mounted diffuser. construction phases.
FLOOR MOUNTED DIFFUSERS
Floor mounted linear displacement diffusers, a traditional linear bar
grille with a perforated baffle, are designed for integration into a
raised floor air distribution system. Particularly suited for applications
with an emphasis on aesthetic appeal, a linear displacement floor
diffuser can provide a continuous look while delivering a quiet, low
velocity airflow pattern.
Floor mounted linear displacement diffusers handle regular foot traffic
and do not intrude on wall space, making them well suited for offices,
lobbies and educational facilities with raised floors where floor and
wall space is at a premium. Load bearing requirements, installation
constraints, and frame type and core styles should all be considered
during the design phase. All cabling, piping and wiring is done under
the floor, keeping the installation and any subsequent access and
maintenance clean and simplified. Floor mounted linear displacement
diffusers are an ideal solution for custom applications incorporating
raised floor or trench systems.
Example of a floor mounted diffuser.

CEILING MOUNTED DIFFUSERS

A Ceiling mounted displacement diffusers can be square or
rectangular, featuring a flat perforated face ideal for suspended
lay-in T-bar applications, particularly suited for retrofit applications
when replacing a traditional overhead mixing system. The diffuser
is designed to produce a low velocity vertical air pattern supplying
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
air evenly across the perforated face with minimal turbulence or

induction of room air. The cool supply air falls slowly to the floor and
gradually fills the space.
These diffusers are available in round neck configurations and the
frame is designed to easily drop into a standard ceiling tee. The
standard finish is Appliance White to match the T-bar, however,
custom finishes are available to match any architectural concept.
INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS
Displacement diffusers are ideal for industrial and manufacturing
applications and can cover relatively large cooling capacities,
providing significantly better conditions than mixing ventilation
systems. Industrial displacement diffusers are designed to handle
higher volumes of air which allows thermal loads and noxious matter
to be systematically removed from the space. Accurate calculation
of the equipment load in an industrial application is one of the most
crucial steps during the design phase.
KEY TERMINOLOGY:
Adjacent Zone: Simply defined as the exclusion zone in front of the diffuser where a draft may occur and where the
occupants should not be located. The portion of the room where discharge velocities exceed 40 fpm at a height of 1" above
the floor. A common metric used to evaluate the performance of Displacement Diffusers.
Buoyancy: The vertical force exerted on a volume of air that has different density than the ambient air in the space.
Draft: Unwanted localized cooling caused by the movement of air. Typically a problem when occupants are located within
the adjacent zone of a diffuser.
Face Velocity: Average air discharge velocity from the face of a diffuser usually expressed in feet per minute (fpm).
Isovel: The boundary line of points of equal mean velocity.
Occupied Zone: Distance at which discharge air from the diffuser reaches 40 fpm (at 1" off the floor). The minimum
distance a stationary occupant should be positioned from the diffuser face.
Stratification: The layering of air into the occupied zone by means of a diffuser. Stratification allows for the buoyant forces
of air to drive the displacement system.
Thermal Plume: The vertical column of air resulting from cold supply air meeting warmer ambient air and thermal loads
within the occupied zone.

Model DCF1 Type L square and rectangular displacement

diffusers are intended for lay-in suspended ceiling applications,
designed to easily install in a standard tee. Features include a
flat perforated face that creates a 1-way discharge air pattern
which allows cool air to cascade down towards the floor from
overhead. An equalization baffle behind the diffuser face ensures
an even distribution of low velocity supply air. The DCF1 Type L
diffuser is ideal for use in retrofit applications to turn a traditional
overhead mixing system into a displacement ventilation system
while utilizing the existing ductwork. The diffuser is available with
a round inlet as standard, additional finishes and accessories are
also available.

architectural look from floor to ceiling by concealing attached
ductwork. They are available in corrosion-resistant solid steel,
or perforated steel to match the diffuser face. When using a
perforated duct cover, the ductwork can be painted black to
conceal it and create a finished look.
Duct covers are supplied in varying lengths to accommodate any

ceiling height and widths to match the overall size of the diffuser,
and can be split into multiple sections to create a symmetrical
look. They are ideal for top ducted diffusers where exposed
duct work is not desired, such as in lobbies, boardrooms and
restaurants. Covers are shipped loose and field installed where
required. Duct covers are available for Nailor Model Series DFF
