Measured energy consumption and carbon emissions of air-conditioning in UK office buildings.

Author(s) : KNIGHT I., DUNN G.

Type of article: Article

Summary

This work provides an insight into the energy performance achieved by real AC systems as operated in UK Offices. When the EC Energy Performance in Buildings Directive becomes law in January 2006 the practically achievable energy and emissions performance of building services will fall more sharply into focus for designers. It is hoped that this paper will provide information useful to both designers and operators of AC systems in the UK as they attempt to reduce the impact of AC systems on the environment.
