Abstract:
Disclosed is a climate control system for use with an indoor plant growing environment. The system includes an air supply system and a refrigeration system. The refrigeration system utilizes a reheat coil in parallel with a condenser coil. In the airflow path of the air supply system the reheat coil is positioned downstream of the cooling coil. The method of operating the climate control system relies upon the input of set point values for enthalpy, dry bulb temperature and dew points into a controller. The controller receives data from sensors within the plant growing environment and uses this data to manage the operation of a three-way valve, supply fan speed, and compressor speed in order to maintain the indoor plant growing environment within an accepted range of each of the three set points.
