Method of constructing stochastic near-extreme daily weather data for efficient calculation of probabilistic load in air-conditioning system design

摘要

? 2022 Elsevier LtdTo solve the oversizing problem of the air-conditioning systems caused by the deterministic method of calculating design load, the probabilistic method has been proposed, in which the design load is selected based on the load probability distribution. In the probabilistic method, obtaining the probabilistic load based on the annual weather scenarios is time-consuming. Thus, it seems more efficient to determine the design load by obtaining the probabilistic near-extreme load directly through stochastic simulation. Therefore, a refined stochastic near-extreme daily weather (SNDW) model, in which the coupling of weather parameters was considered, was proposed to quantify the uncertainty of weather parameters in the stochastic simulation of near-extreme load. Taking Tianjin in China as an example, the SNDW model was established, and the probabilistic design loads of three types of buildings were calculated on this basis. The results showed that compared to the benchmark method, the application of the SNDW model could ensure about 1.5% of the relative error of the design load selected, and the average simulation time was reduced to 1/23 of the benchmark. Finally, the adaptability of the SNDW model to different climatic zones was verified.
