Summary

DEALS WITH THE ECONOMICS OF USING ICE STORAGE SYSTEMS IN AUSTRALIAN COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS AND WITH THE ROLE THAT THE DIFFERENTLY-SHAPED TIME-OF-USE (TOU) ELECTRICITY TARIFFS ON OFFER IN SYDNEY AND MELBOURNE HAVE ON THE OPTIMUM SYSTEM DESIGN. USES MATHEMATICAL PROGRAMMING TECHNIQUES TO INVESTIGATE THE OPTIMUM STORE CONTROL STRATEGY FOR DIFFERENT SEASONAL AND LOAD CONDITIONS. SHOWS THAT IN BOTH CITIES, THE USE OF ICE STORAGE REDUCES OVERALL AIR CONDITIONING COSTS SIGNIFICANTL. THE EXTRA CAPITAL COSTS ARE PAID BACK WITH SAVINGS IN ELECTRICITY IN LESS THAN 2 YEARS FOR MOST OF THE CASES INVESTIGATED. (INT. BUILD. SERV. ABSTR., GB., 24, N 5, 1989/09-10, 89-01419.
