The purpose of an air distribution system of HVAC is to transfer the required conditioned air to meet the necessary space comfort level. The components of the system are selected to supply the minimum required air under standard conditions. These conditions may be shifted over time. The process of air balancing HVAC systems help to maintain space comfort level under different real conditions with minimum energy consumption and maximum reliability. Therefore, this process should be performed perfectly to obtain the best performance of HVAC systems with minimum cost and maximum reliability.
