Determination of building cooling loads using real weather data.
… it to be implemented in the design stage of the building. Therefore this study was initiated to overcome some of the problems that were encountered using the well-established cooling load method. For instance, cooling load calculations of a building are dependent on the external dynamic …

Optimal Allocation of Building Cooling Loads to Chilled Water Plant Equipment
The air in most non-residential buildings needs to be cooled to maintain occupant comfort. Typically, the air is cooled by using cold water provided by a chiller plant consisting of liquid chillers, cooling towers and pumps. To meet the changing demand for cooling, most buildings have automated …

Off peak cooling using an ice storage system
… thesis investigates the impact of commercial cooling systems on the utilities supply picture and describes an off-peak cooling system which would enable a building operator to shift chiller operation to off-peak hours. The chillers draw heat from a water/glycol coolant, cooling it to 20°F. The …

Examining the feasibility of a novel ground-storage cooling system
… must be sought in order to achieve reductions in building energy use and to reduce the rate of climate change. This research examines the feasibility of a ground-cooling storage system that stores the abundant Boston winter cold in an underground block of soil to provide dehumidification in …

Validation of a Simplified Building Cooling Load Model Using a Complex Computer Simulation Model
Building energy simulation has become a useful tool for predicting cooling, heating and electrical loads for facilities. Simulation models have been validated throughout the years by comparing simulation results to actual measured values. The simulations have become more accurate as approaches were …
