Résumé

Use of the building structure for thermal storage can provide significant load shifting with minimal initial cost for both new and existing buildings. It is only necessary to change the control strategy used for adjusting zone temperature setpoints. A tool was developed that allows evaluation of thermal mass control strategies using HVAC utility costs as the baseline for comparison. The cost savings potential for use of building thermal mass can be very significant. However, the savings depend upon utility incentives, building construction, climate, and the type of air conditioning system. The tool presented in the paper is useful for evaluating the savings potential for a particular application and for developing a site-specific control strategy.
