Affordable Manufactured Housing Through Energy Conservation: A Guide to Designing and Constructing Energy-Efficient Manufactured Homes.

摘要

The methodology is reviewed. The work on a simulation tool to perform the building energy analysis work is discussed. The derivation of the operational aspects of the prototype homes is described including thermostat settings, venting schedules, and internal load parameters. The approach developed to estimate the energy savings associated with the energy conservation options, the results of the analysis and the conclusions derived from the data are delineated. The slide rule is introduced as a format for displaying the data correlated by the sensitivity analysis. The procedures developed for estimating energy savings resulting from the use of two types of options: active solar panels and flow reducers, are outlined. (ERA citation 09:002609)
