Dynamic evaluation of the cooling capacity of thermo-active building systems.
Author(s) : OLESEN B. W., CARLI M. de, SCARPA M., et al.
Summary
This paper offers a guide for the design of water-based embedded heating/cooling systems to promote the use of renewable energy sources and provide a method for actively integrating the building mass to reduce peak loads, transfer heating/cooling loads to off-peak times, and decrease system size. Peak loads can be reduced by activating the building mass using pipes embedded in the main concrete structure of the building. [Reprinted with permission from Ashrae. Copyright, 2006].
