Great demand for energy and growing trend in the use of energy-efficient HVAC systems force researchers to focus on the importance of choosing the most appropriate HVAC system for industrial buildings during design process. Therefore, developing a model to select the most suitable HVAC system is vital for industrial buildings. To this aim, this study provides a comprehensive evaluation of different HVAC systems for an industrial building by using hybrid multi criteria decision making (MCDM) method. An industrial building in Ankara/Turkey is selected as a case building. Eleven HVAC systems are evaluated based on twenty seven criteria, which are determined as a result of extensive literature research, and are grouped under six categories including ergonomic, environmental, reliability, technical, and economical aspects. A hybrid application of building energy simulation (BES) integrated modified Stepwise Weight Assessment Ratio Analysis (SWARA) and Weighted Additive Sum Product Assessment (WASPAS) framework is developed for supporting the decision making process. The novelty of the study is integrating the objective results of a well-calibrated dynamic BES tool with subjective criteria which are collected from expert opinions by applying questionnaires with face-to-face interview method. The results of MCDM framework and sensitivity analysis showed that the water-source heat pump is the best and suitable alternative for the industrial building. The outcome of this study would benefit the HVAC engineers and specialists in order to design the best HVAC systems in industrial buildings while providing an insight into different criteria. Moreover, key contribution to the literature is the usage of hybrid MCDM framework integrated with BES tool in the building sector.

能源的巨大需求以及节能型HVAC系统的使用不断增长的趋势迫使研究人员在设计过程中将重点放在为工业建筑选择最合适的HVAC系统的重要性上。因此，开发模型以选择最合适的HVAC系统对于工业建筑至关重要。为此，本研究通过使用混合多准则决策（MCDM）方法对工业建筑的不同HVAC系统进行了全面评估。土耳其安卡拉的一栋工业建筑被选为案例建筑。根据广泛的文献研究确定的11个HVAC系统是根据27个标准进行评估的，并分为6类，包括人体工程学，环境，可靠性，技术和经济方面。开发了建筑能源模拟（BES），改进的逐步权重评估比率分析（SWARA）和加权累加和产品评估（WASPAS）框架的混合应用程序，以支持决策过程。该研究的新颖之处在于将经过良好校准的动态BES工具的客观结果与主观标准相结合，这些标准是通过采用面对面访谈法通过问卷调查从专家意见中收集的。MCDM框架和灵敏度分析的结果表明，水源热泵是工业建筑的最佳选择。这项研究的结果将使HVAC工程师和专家受益，以便在工业建筑中设计最佳的HVAC系统，同时深入了解不同的标准。此外，
