Energy consumption for air conditioning systems (air conditioning system) increased along with the increasing need for fresh air and comfortable in the room especially apartments. FAC system (Floor Air Conditioning) is growing because it is more energy efficient than CAC (Ceiling Air Conditioning) system. However, the position of the AC supply is on the lower level at the FAC system causes draft discomfort becomes greater as air supply closer to the occupants so that thermal comfort can be reduced. Heat mixture of windows, exterior walls, kitchen, and occupants in the studio apartment affect thermal comfort in the room too.This study aims to determine the position of the AC supply which has the best thermal comfort of FAC system in the studio apartment. It can be done by analyzing ADPI (Air Diffusion Performance Index), the distribution of air temperature, wind speed, RH (Relative Humidity), and DR (Draft Risk) to change the position of the AC supply supported by CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation.This result prove that AC position 2 (on wall near the kitchen) is more comfortable than AC position 1 (on the bathroom wall) because AC position 2 away from occupied areas, thereby reducing the occurrence of draught discomfort.

Taking the radiant cooling combined with wall-attached-jet air-conditioning system as the subject in a laboratory of Jiangsu university, an experimental study was carried out on pre-dehumidifying period, stable operation period and system shutdown period, along with analysis. The objective is to analyze the pre-dehumidification of the system, indoor air temperature and humidification change, vertical temperature profile and condensation sensitivity. The results show that the hybrid air-conditioning can provide high thermal comfort and avoid condensation effectively, which shows the better performance compared to the system of radiant cooling combined with displacement ventilation to some extent.
