Heating Ventilating and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) equipment taxonomy
Past efforts to reduce carbon emissions from the non-domestic building sector have had limited success in the UK. One of the reasons for this is a general absence of data addressing the non-domestic building sector, leading further to a lack of transparent and validated methods for energy use benchmarks and both statistical and predictive energy use modelling. This paper addresses this issue by proposing a heating ventilating and air-conditioning (HVAC) equipment taxonomy that will allow compatibility across building sector energy modelling, benchmarking and surveying. The paper presents a comprehensive, yet easily expandable, friendly to use HVAC equipment taxonomy. The main aim of the HVAC equipment taxonomy is to assist both predictive and statistical building energy end use modelling, surveying fieldwork and analysis of all building types and the allocation of energy to end uses. The HVAC equipment taxonomy developed also includes information about equipment energy efficiency in terms of efficiency coefficients or auxiliary energy consumption for both design and part load. This is supported by a review of what are sometimes contradicting and ill-defined energy efficiency indices, especially with regard to part-load operation.
