[HVAC Expert] How should the cooling and heating sources be selected for a five-star hotel?

Typically, a water-based system uses chillers plus boilers, or a VRV heating and cooling system. For high-end hotels, magnetic levitation centrifugal chillers plus gas boilers are recommended for high energy efficiency and low noise. Selection should be calculated based on building area, cooling load index, and cooling capacity per unit area.
