Summary

This paper discusses a simulation study of six fully air-conditioned office buildings using variable cooling setpoints matched to the adaptive comfort criteria. Three of the modelled buildings are real office buildings recently built in Canberra. The other three models are the San Francisco versions of benchmark offices developed by the US Department of Energy for use with EnergyPlus. These benchmark offices are fairly simplistic models similar to those used by the Australian Building Codes Board for benchmarking.
