摘要：In recent decades, reducing the energy demand of the building sector has become a major goal of global policies. Proper design of the building-plant system is hence strategic to achieve nearly zero energy building (NZEB) target. This paper reports the results of modeling the building-plant system of an NZEB in Southern Italy. The case study is a multi-family complex of eight dwellings located in Bari, in the Apulia region. The building project originates from the energy refurbishment of a former industrial shed that was demolished and rebuilt for residential use. The planned HVAC system foresees the combined use of primary ventilation with fan-coil units fed by two ground source heat pumps (GSHP) supplied by eight vertical probes. Three hybrid ventilation strategies have been compared to evaluate the potential cooling energy saving: the first one examines an earth-to-air heat exchanger (EAHX), the second one proposes night hybrid ventilation from 10 pm to 6 am, and the last considers the adoption of free cooling in mechanical ventilation. Economic and energy comparisons among these three approaches are reported. Using EAHX, the cooling consumption saving reached about 20.7% The use of night ventilation combined with MVS can reduce the cooling energy demand for 14.4%, while free cooling in MVS produces a less effective decrease in the electricity consumption for cooling of about 7.7%. All three strategies generate major benefits in the middle-season.
