Statistical and persistence analysis of high summer ambient temperatures in Athens for cooling purposes
AbstractThe increase of living standards in buildings and the recent high summer temperature values have dramatically increased the installation of cooling systems in buildings. Analysis of the summer ambient temperatures is thus necessary in order to provide appropriate information to designers and to investigate possible increasing trends of ambient temperature having an important impact on energy consumption.A statistical analysis of the summer ambient temperature data is presented in order to provide information for evaluation of passive, hybrid and conventional cooling systems and techniques. Multiyear data of Athens, Greece, have been used. No statistically significant increasing or decreasing trend of the hot and very hot summer hours was found.The persistence of high summer temperatures was also calculated and found to be statistically significant. Probabilities of hourly temperatures being higher than a temperature base are calculated for each month.
