Building Environmental Systems Evaluation for the National Security and Resources Study Center.

摘要

A method is presented for manually calculating the approximate annual energy requirements of the heating,ventilating and air conditioning systems of a 60,000square foot solar heated and cooled building. In addition to a solar source,several energy conservation schemes including return air cooled luminaires,reduced lighting levels,reduced outside air changes,hot and chilled water storage and heat recovery were incorporated into the building systems design and the impact on energy consumption of several design decisions is investigated.
