标题:Calculation method for the effect of heat rejection of split-type air conditioner on thermal environment and building energy demand for neighbourhood-level
摘要:The purpose of this research is to propose a simple and fast method to evaluate the effect of heat rejection of split-type air conditioner on the thermal environment surrounding the building and the building cooling demand to provide guidance for architectural design in the urban planning stage. In this paper, we first determined the factors that affect or are affected by heat rejection as heat dissipation, wind speed, and ambient air temperature, which as inputs to the CFD to build the regression model of the temperature rise. Then, the regression model is coupled with the energy consumption simulation software EnergyPlus to estimate the building cooling increase. The result of taking a typical residential building as a reference show that the maximum temperature rise and cooling demand increase with the values of 1.86°C and 17%.
