Site and Building Energy-Conservation Study: Survey of Building 321, Material Fabrication Shops

摘要

An energy-conservation study of Building 321, Material Fabrication Shops, at LLL was conducted. The survey was based on a review of the design drawings, an on-site inspection of the 149,500-ft exp 2 building, and discussions with the building manager and various operating personnel. Data were collected regarding the number of people occupying the building, operating schedules, and the energy loads imposed by installed and temporary equipment. The HVAC systems were investigated. The building energy systems were simulated using the DOE-1 energy program. A base-year energy consumption run was made, together with simulations of the building's performance assuming installation of each of the eight energy-conservation opportunities (ECO's) identified. Energy savings that would result from implementation of the ECO's are presented in a table. Another table summarizes the ECO indices which include the cost savings, capital investment, savings-to-investment ratio, fuel savings, fuel saved-to-investment ratio, and the payback period.
