Summary

AT THE SKATING RINK < DE MEENT >, ALKMAAR, AN INSIDE AND OUTSIDE BOARDING AND A WIND/HEAT FENCE ARE INSTALLED IN ORDER TO REDUCE THE WIND VELOCITY ON THE SKATING RINK. WITH THIS WIND/HEAT FENCE ALSO THE CONDENSER HEAT IS TRANSFERRED TO THE AMBIENT AIR, RESULTING IN A LOWER CONDENSATION TEMPERATURE AND REDUCTION OF ENERGY USE FOR AUXILIARIES. DURING THE LAST THREE SEASONS MEASUREMENTS HAVE BEEN CARRIED OUT. THE REDUCTION IN HEAT LOAD OF THE SKATING RINK AMOUNTS ROUGHLY 40-45%, CORRESPONDING TO A SAVING IN ENERGY OF ROUGHLY 140,000 M3 NATURAL GAS, WHILE ENERGY CONSUMPTION FOR AUXILIARIES IS REDUCED BY ROUGHLY 70,000 KILOWH.
