Abstract
Highlights
•An experimental investigation of cooling performance of a combined HVAC system is carried out.
•Cooling performance of TABS with and without the influence of diffuse ceiling is analyzed.
•Radiant and convective heat transfer coefficients of TABS cooling are studied.
•Cooling components from the diffuse ceiling are characterized.
