Residential indoor thermal environment investigation and analysis on energy saving of air conditioning in hot summer and warm winter zone in China
Urban Climate(2023)
摘要
The increasing sharply penetration of air conditioning causes a large number of energy consumption, it is crucial to identify a solution to reduce energy consumption. In this study, the operation pattern of air conditioning (A/C), indoor thermal environment, residents' thermal comfort and energy consumption in multi-residential buildings in hot summer and warm winter zone are analyzed by means of field measurements and questionnaire surveys. Most observed indoor temperature fell within the range of 28–30 °C. Because the relative humidity reached up to more than 90%, some residential indoor thermal environment has the risk of heatstroke. It can be obtained 28.4 °C as the thermal neutral temperature, and the acceptable temperature ranges from 27.1 °C to 29.6 °C, which is much higher than other climate zones. Moreover, the simulation software Energy-Plus was used to simulate and verify the energy consumption of typical multi-residential buildings. Simulation results indicate that each 1 °C increase of setting temperature would lead to an approximately 20% reduction in cooling energy consumption. The appropriate setting temperature of air conditioning is the temperature which could achieve the actual indoor temperature maintain at approximately 28–29 °C, the appropriate service time and switching behavior of A/C also have positive effect on the reduction of energy consumption.
