From 'Energy Information Handbook' - Fundamental Analysis Methods for Heating and Cooling Systems

摘要

Loading histograms, efficiency analysis, and fault detection and diagnostics. Modern networked controls, smart interval meters, and systems integration make available a rich set of data that can be used to improve a building's operational efficiency. Meanwhile myriad tools and methods for analyzing that data are available. With so many options, building managers and operators often are left wondering where to start, what data are required for proactive energy management? Which analyses should be performed, and how frequently? The new "Energy Information Handbook: Applications for Energy-Efficient Building Operations" targets users with little or no experience analyzing data and monitoring performance. It includes 18 methods of analyzing utility, interval-meter, and submetered energy and control-system data, as well as overviews of manual and automated fault detection and diagnostics (FDD).
