Solar air-conditioning can have higher application potential for buildings through the strategy of high temperature cooling. In recent years, displacement ventilation (DV), which makes use of the indoor rising plumes from the internal heat gains, provides a more effective supply air option than the traditional mixing ventilation (MV) in terms of both thermal comfort and indoor air quality. As it is possible to raise the supply air temperature to 19 °C for DV, it would enhance the competitive edge of the solar air-conditioning against the conventional vapour compression refrigeration. Through dynamic simulation, a solar-desiccant-cooling displacement ventilation system (SDC_DV) was developed for full-fresh-air provision, while a solar-hybrid-desiccant-cooling displacement ventilation system (SHDC_DV) for return air arrangement. The latter was further hybridized with absorption chiller (AB) to become SHDCAB_DV, or adsorption chiller (AD) to be SHDCAD_DV, in order to be wholly energized by the solar thermal gain. Benchmarked with the conventional system using MV, the SDC_DV had 43.3% saving in year-round primary energy consumption for a typical office in the subtropical climate; the SHDCAB_DV had 49.5% saving, and the SHDCAD_DV had 18.3% saving. Compared with their MV counterparts, the SDC_DV, the SHDCAB_DV and the SHDCAD_DV could have 42.4%, 21.9% and 30.3% saving respectively. 相似文献

This work presents an experimental validation of a simplified approach for a desiccant wheel model, based on the concept of the analogy method and the formulation proposed by Jurinak for the respective combined potentials. The present work experimentally investigates the validity of the assumption of the efficiency factors of the wheel, with regard to the combined potentials, remaining constant over a sufficiently wide range of operation conditions. The results prove the validity of the discussed assumption. The same analysis is implemented with regard to the technical data about the performance of the wheel, usually provided by the manufacturer in the form of software, the results being also positive. Thus, the respective efficiency factors can be calculated through a limited number of measurements, or even simpler, through the use of the manufacturer's performance software accompanying the product. 相似文献

Solar cooling is emerging as one of the most interesting applications in the harnessing of solar energy for alternative uses. Current devices can effectively control the climates of small buildings while addressing the issues associated with the excessive thermal energy captured during the summer months. This article presents an exergy analysis of buildings with solar thermal systems used for Domestic Hot Water (DHW) production and heating and cooling support. The cooling system analyzed is a LiCl–H2O thermally driven heat pump with integral energy storage that uses outdoor swimming pools as heat sink. All subsystems were integrated into the model and considered as a single energy system, and data from installations in three different locations were used. The influences of the heating and cooling demand ratios and the dead state and house temperatures were analyzed. Further, the use of dissipated energy was analyzed, demonstrating that the proposed method facilitates the realistic study of these systems and provides useful analytical tools for improving the overall exergy performance. The energy delivered for heating, cooling and DHW production strongly influences global performance, suggesting that the appropriate sizing of each system is a priority. 相似文献

New approaches to space conditioning of buildings are required to resolve economic, environmental, and regulatory issues. One of the alternative systems that is brought to agenda is the desiccant cooling systems, which may provide important advantages in solving air conditioning problems. This study deals with the performance analysis and evaluation of a novel desiccant cooling system using exergy analysis method. The system was designed, constructed and tested in Cukurova University, Adana, Turkey and has been successfully operated since 2008. This system consists of a desiccant wheel, heat exchangers, fans, evaporative cooler, electric heater unit and refrigeration unit. The exergy transports between the components and the destructions in each of the components of the desiccant cooling system are determined for the average measured parameters obtained from the experimental results. Exergy efficiencies of the system components are determined in an attempt to assess their individual performances and the potential for improvements is also presented. The exergetic efficiency values for the whole system on the exergetic product/fuel basis are calculated to range from round 32% to 10% at the varying dead (reference) state temperatures of 0-30 °C. 相似文献

The paper investigates the energetic and economic feasibility of a solar-assisted heating and cooling system (SHC) for different types of school buildings and Italian climates. The SHC system under investigation is based on the coupling of evacuated solar collectors with a single-stage LiBr-H2O absorption chiller; auxiliary energy for both heating and cooling is supplied by an electric-driven reversible heat pump. The SHC system was coupled with different types of school buildings located in three different Italian climatic zones. The analysis is carried out by means of a zero-dimensional transient simulation model, developed using the TRNSYS software; the analysis of the dynamic behaviour of the building was also included. An economic model is proposed, in order to assess the operating and capital costs of the systems under analysis. Furthermore, a parametric analysis and a subsequent mixed heuristic-deterministic optimization algorithm was implemented, in order to determine the set of the synthesis/design variables that maximize system profitability. The results are encouraging, as for the potential of energy saving. On the contrary, the SHC economic profitability can be achieved only in case of public funding policies (e.g. feed-in tariffs), as always happens for the great majority of renewable energy systems. 相似文献

A new type of air conditioning system, the liquid desiccant evaporation cooling air conditioning system (LDCS) is introduced in this paper. Desiccant evaporation cooling technology is environmental friendly and can be used to condition the indoor environment of buildings. Unlike conventional air conditioning systems, the system can be driven by low-grade heat sources such as solar energy and industrial waste heat with temperatures between 60 and 80 °C. In this paper, a LDCS, as well as a packed tower for the regenerator and dehumidifier is described. The effects of heating source temperature, air temperature and humidity, desiccant solution temperature and desiccant solution concentration on the rates of dehumidification and regeneration are discussed. Based on the experimental results, mass transfer coefficients of the regeneration process were experimentally obtained. The results showed that the mean mass transfer coefficient of the packing regenerator was 4 g/(m2 s). In the experiments of dehumidification, it was found that there was maximal tower efficiency with the suitable inlet humidity of the indoor air. The effective curves of heating temperature on the outlet parameters of the regenerator were obtained. The relationships of regeneration mass transfer coefficient as a function of heating temperature and desiccant concentration are introduced. 相似文献

Air conditioning of buildings is responsible for a large percentage of the greenhouse and ozone depletion effect, as refrigerant harmful gases are released into the atmosphere from conventional cooling systems. The need to implement advanced new concepts in building air conditioning systems is more crucial than ever today.Solar cooling systems (SCS) have the advantage of using absolutely harmless working fluids such as water, or solutions of certain salts. They are energy efficient and environmentally safe. They can be used, either as stand-alone systems or with conventional AC, to improve the indoor air quality of all types of buildings. The main goal is to utilize “zero emissions” technologies to reduce energy consumption and reduce CO2 emissions.Amongst cooling technologies, absorption cooling seems to have a promising market potential.In this paper, the performance and economic evaluation of a solar heating and cooling system of a hospital in Crete, is studied using the transient simulation program (TRNSYS). The meteorological year file exploited the hourly weather data where produced by 30-year statistical process. The required data were obtained by Hellenic National Meteorological Service.The objective of this study is to simulate a complete system comprised of a solar collector, a storage tank, a backup heat source, a water cooling tower and a LiBr-H2O absorption chiller. The exploitation of the results of the simulation provided the optimum sizing of the system. 相似文献

In this paper, a solar heating system, which combines the technologies of evacuated tube solar air collector and rotary desiccant humidification together, has been configured, tested and modeled. The system mainly includes 15 m2 solar air collectors and a desiccant air-conditioning unit. Two operation modes are designed, namely, direct solar heating mode and solar heating with desiccant humidification mode. Performance model of the system has been created in TRNSYS. The objective of this paper is to check the applicability of solar heating and evaluate the feasibility and potential of desiccant humidification for improving indoor thermal comfort. Experimental results show that the solar heating system can convert about 50% of the received solar radiation for space heating on a sunny day in winter and increases indoor temperature by about 10 °C. Compared with direct solar heating mode, solar heating with desiccant humidification can increase the fraction of the time within comfort region from about 10% to 20% for standalone solar heating and from about 30% to 60% for solar heating with auxiliary heater according to seasonal analysis. It is confirmed that solar heating with desiccant humidification is promising and worthwhile being applied to improving indoor thermal comfort in heating season. 相似文献

Evacuated tube solar water heaters are increasingly in use in Hong Kong because of their good thermal efficiency and high water temperature achievable as compared to the flat-plate solar water heaters. But so far their thermal performance has not been systematically evaluated and therefore not well known to the users. This paper reports our experimental and numerical works on evaluating the performance of the two common types of evacuated tube solar water heaters for domestic hot-water applications. These are the single-phase open thermosyphon system and the two-phase closed thermosyphon system. Our results show that the daily and annual thermal performance of the two-phase closed thermosyphon solar collector is slightly better than the single-phase open thermosyphon design. But the payback periods of the two are relatively the same because of the higher initial costs of the two-phase closed thermosyphon collector system. Although economically they are less attractive than the flat-plate type collector system, they are suitable for applications in advanced systems with higher temperature demands. 相似文献

The paper contributes to the system design of solar thermal absorption chillers. A full simulation model was developed for absorption cooling systems, combined with a stratified storage tank, steady-state or dynamic collector model and hourly resolved building loads. The model was validated with experimental data from various solar cooling plants.As the absorption chillers can be operated at reduced generator temperatures under partial load conditions, the control strategy has a strong influence on the solar thermal system design and performance. It could be shown that buildings with the same maximum cooling load, but very different load time series, require collector areas varying by more than a factor 2 to achieve the same solar fraction. Depending on control strategy, recooling temperature levels, location and cooling load time series, between 1.7 and 3.6 m2 vacuum tube collectors per kW cooling load are required to cover 80% of the cooling load.The cost analysis shows that Southern European locations with higher cooling energy demand lead to significantly lower costs. For long operation hours, cooling costs are around 200 € MWh−1 and about 280 € MWh−1 for buildings with lower internal gains and shorter cooling periods. For a Southern German climate, the costs are more than double. 相似文献

In this study, improvement was made for the solar-electric compression refrigeration system by incorporating the ejector design to a conventional vapour compression chiller within the system. Through year-round dynamic simulation, the performances of the ejector-assisted vapour compression chiller (EAVCC) were evaluated under the intermittent and changing supply of solar energy in the subtropical climate. In addition, the effect of three common refrigerants, R22, R134a and R410A on the EAVCC was assessed and compared. It was found that the coefficient of performance of the chiller was increased and the total primary energy consumption of the system was decreased for all the three refrigerants, in which the degree of enhancement from R134a was the most significant. It was also noted that the effect of R410A on EAVCC was not apparent, and the overall system energy improvement was marginal. With appropriate ejector design and refrigerant selection of the solar-electric compression refrigeration system, the reduction potential of year-round primary energy consumption could be more than 5%. This would be certainly helpful in promoting the application of solar air-conditioning for building use in the subtropical climate. 相似文献

Correctly controlled solar desiccant evaporative cooling is an interesting option for achieving savings in building air-conditioning consumption. The operation of this system (open loop cooling cycle) is strongly influenced by indoor and outdoor air conditions. This influence is characterized using numerical simulations. First the air conditioned room and the cooling system are simulated using a validated model of the desiccant wheel. Then the influence of each parameter of the desiccant air handling unit is evaluated. The third step is to assess the system cooling power for each operating mode with fluctuating outdoor and indoor air conditions. This allows for making relevant choices for a new control strategy taking into account both indoor and outdoor air conditions. This control strategy is tested for a whole cooling season and compared to a reference compression system with promising results, allowing for energy savings of about 40% for French climate. 相似文献

In the last few years, thermal comfort research in summer has significantly increased the electricity consumption in buildings. This is mainly due to the use of conventional air conditioning systems operating with mechanical vapor compression. Solar cooling systems appear to be an interesting solution to solve this problem. But the understanding of this technology has to be refined through fundamental studies by developing numerical simulations. Moreover, the study of pilot plants is a practical method to gain experience by analyzing all the processes behind solar cooling technology. This paper presents an experimental study of a solar cooling absorption system implemented in Reunion Island, located in the southern hemisphere near the Capricorn Tropic. The particularity of this project is to achieve an effective cooling of classrooms, by a solar cooling system without any backup systems (hot or cold). The aim of this experimental study is to define the limits of the use of such system under tropical climate conditions without setting a set point temperature. Indoor thermal comfort is achieved by a self-stabilizing operating system that maintains the indoor temperature 6 °C below the outdoor temperature. During some critical periods of the year, when the outdoor temperature is very high and when the solar cooling system cannot provide enough refrigerating production, thermal comfort inside the building is achieved by using ceiling fans. Firstly we will present the installation and the choices we made in the control and design process. In the second part, an analysis of the experimental results will be presented. 相似文献

The combined space cooling and hot water preheating system that utilizes the rejected condenser heat is considered one of the most cost effective energy conservation measures. However, simultaneous consumption characteristics are absent in public domain. Questionnaire surveys have been conducted to obtain the relevant information from 126 households residing in high-rise public rental residential buildings in Hong Kong, achieving a confidence level of 95%. The candidate households were selected by a convenience sampling approach, and the questionnaire was constructed using either forced-choice format or in numeric response format. The data obtained were verified by correlation analysis. Data collected includes the occupancy pattern, the installed air-conditioner and water heater characteristics, and the utilization pattern of air-conditioning and hot water. Based upon the collected data and site measurements, hourly, daily and monthly heat recovery and hot water heating demand profiles were established, as well as the correlation between tap water and outdoor air temperatures. The combined profiles enable the evaluation of the feasible use of the combined system, and for future sizing of hot water storage tanks. The potential energy and fuel cost saving associated with the use of the proposed combined system for typical public rental housing in Hong Kong was estimated to be 50%. 相似文献

This paper presents an experimental test along with procedures to investigate the validity of a developed simulation model in predicting the dynamic performance of a condenser heat recovery with a photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) air heating collector to regenerate desiccant for reducing energy use of an air conditioning room under the prevailing meteorological conditions in tropical climates. The system consists of five main parts; namely, living space, desiccant dehumidification and regeneration unit, air conditioning system, PV/T collector, and air mixing unit. The comparisons between the experimental results and the simulated results using the same meteorological data of the experiment show that the prediction results simulated by the model agree satisfactorily with those observed from the experiments. The thermal energy generated by the system can produce warm dry air as high as 53 °C and 23% relative humidity. Additionally, electricity of about 6% of the daily total solar radiation can be obtained from the PV/T collector in the system. Moreover, the use of a hybrid PV/T air heater, incorporated with the heat recovered from the condenser to regenerate the desiccant for dehumidification, can save the energy use of the air conditioning system by approximately 18%. 相似文献

ABSTRACT This study presents the results of a preliminary attempt to assess water availability for wet-cooled solar thermal power plants at potential locations in India. A total of 95 locations with sufficient wastelands and annual average DNI more than 2000?kWh/m2 have been considered for the analysis. Options of rainwater harvesting and groundwater extraction have been explored. It was observed that with rainwater harvesting, only 12 locations in different states are suitable for adoption of wet cooling. Further, with only groundwater extraction option, only one location in the state of Madhya Pradesh is found to be suitable for adoption of wet cooling. By combining both the approaches, it is observed that 28 of the 95 locations would have sufficient water available to meet the requirements of the plant. In the remaining 67 potential locations, the adoption of other available cooling options with relatively lesser water requirements may be appropriate. 相似文献

Energy and exergy analysis of photovoltaic/thermal integrated with a solar greenhouse 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In this paper, an attempt has been made to validate the thermal model with experimental results of a typical day August, 25, 2006 for clear weather condition of New Delhi. An energy and exergy analysis for the prediction of performance of a photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) collector integrated with a greenhouse at I.I.T, Delhi, India has been carried out. The analysis is based on quasi-steady state condition. Experiments have been conducted extensively during period from June 2006 to May 2007, for annual performance. Numerical computation has been carried out for a typical day only for validation. It is observed that the theoretical value of solar cell, tedlar back surface and greenhouse room air temperatures is approximately equivalent to the experimental values. The predicted and measured values of solar cell, tedlar back surface and greenhouse air temperatures have been verified in terms of root mean square of percent deviation (7.05–17.58%) as well as correlation coefficient (0.95–0.97) and both exhibit fair agreement. Exergy analysis calculations of the PV/T integrated greenhouse system show an exergy efficiency level of approximately 4%. 相似文献
