Abstract
An air conditioning system including a conditioning unit (e.g., fan coil unit) and a control system are provided for efficiently and effectively conditioning indoor air. Some embodiments address temperature control (e.g., including heating and cooling), humidity control, and air quality control, while also introducing conditioned outdoor air. One aspect relates to a control system that delivers liquid to a coil in the conditioning unit at a specified input temperature and flow rate (or specified input temperature and temperature drop across the coil) to meet both sensible and latent cooling demands.
