Résumé

A comparative study of three ventilation systems supplying air to a typical Canadian indoor ice rink illustrates the power, energy and operating cost savings which can be achieved by using the relatively warm air from the air cooled condensers of the refrigeration system. The direct use of this warm air for ventilation results in a reduction of energy consumption during the winter amounting to 24.2% of the yearly consumption of the heating system. On the other hand, the use of a heat exchanger to heat the ventilation air results in energy consumption reductions throughout the year. Depending on the size of the heat exchanger these gains can be as high as 60.8% of the heating energy consumption by the existing system. Based on actual prices of electricity and the heat exchanger it is established that the cost savings over the life of the equipment are at least three times higher than the cost of the heat exchanger.
