Hvac Systems' Performance
The authors, from the Energy Research Group of the School of Architecture, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand, discuss energy-use surveys of 1107 commercial buildings in the central business district of Wellington and detailed monitoring of three of the buildings. The surveys showed that the more centralised the HVAC plant, the greater the energy use; architectural factors were t significant. The monitoring revealed that Energy Management and Control Systems have produced dramatic savings in heating energy consumption—but in all three buildings tenant electricity costs were greater than the total central heating costs. The paper continues our selection of presentations at the September 19S3 symposium in Stockholm by CID W17—Heating and climatisation.
