Abstract:
An air distribution apparatus that serves as a single sensing device for lighting, LiFi, and HVAC functions that are operable on a single platform by building automation systems. The building automation system may be controllable by a single software system or network accessible locally on site or remotely off site. The air distribution apparatus can operate in a single zone or coupled with multiple like apparatuses for multi-zone operation. It is a high turndown, self-balancing system which allows for continuous commissioning with built-in fault diagnostic systems and that may be used as a supply, return, or exhaust system, or a combination thereof. The air distribution apparatus includes multi-stage airflow control systems that operate progressively based on unique actuation mechanisms and/or algorithms that allow for precise flow control and feedback to self-balance and commission the system.

Claim (Index 47):
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor of a device, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:\n receiving sensor data representative of a measurement performed by a sensor; receiving set point data representative of a set point for a controlled environment; determining an indicator of a velocity of a flow of conditioned air that is discharged by an air diffuser, wherein the indicator is a function of the sensor data and the set point data; determining volume data indicative of a volume of the flow that is to be discharged by the air diffuser in order to satisfy the set point, wherein the volume data is determined as a function of the indicator; determining self-balancing data that is indicative of a state of a damper determined to satisfy the set point, wherein the damper controls the flow of the conditioned air through the air diffuser, and wherein the self-balancing data is determined as a function of the indicator and the volume data; and instructing an actuator that controls the damper to set the damper to the state that is determined to satisfy the set point.
