Energy performance model development and occupancy number identification of institutional buildings
Abstract This paper presents a detailed investigation and analysis of the energy consumption characteristics of three institutional buildings in Singapore. Building information, energy consumption data of the air-conditioning system, and energy consumption data of the plug loads were collected separately. Identification models are developed to predict the real daily energy consumption data. Developed models involve three specific functions to represent the variability of the daily occupancy, the additional occupancy due to visitors and the variation of outdoor air temperature. The performance of the developed identification model is very satisfactory and fits very well with the real energy consumption data. Based on the identification model, key factors which are influencing the energy consumption in institutional buildings are identified as the variability of the daily occupancy, hence a methodology is developed to calculate the occupancy in the building. The identified parameters are used as inputs into deterministic energy simulation programs, like Energy Plus, to perform detailed energy analysis. The whole methodology developed has improved significantly the accuracy of the energy simulation modeling of institutional buildings and has permitted to understand and evaluate the major energy characteristics of these buildings.
