Design and operation strategy of cool storage assisted air-conditioning system.

Summary

Energy conservation measures have been in practice in Kuwait since 1983. Additional energy efficient products and techniques developed thereafter, however, have not been introduced. Applications of some of the cost effective energy conservation measures and use of cool storage for peak power shaving have been carried out as a demonstration project in a two-storey building housing the Center for Speech and Audio Therapy. Use of energy-efficient windows and cooling recovery units that were found to be cost-effective resulted in a final building load of 64.5 RT. Finally, ice storage was incorporated to meet 50% of the peak cooling load. The paper presents the complete design approach and the system design and operation mode of a cool storage assisted air-conditioning system.
