Development of an Outdoor Temperature Based Control Algorithm for Residential Mechanical Ventilation Control
- Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. (LBNL), Berkeley, CA (United States)
The Incremental Ventilation Energy (IVE) model developed in this study combines the output of simple air exchange models with a limited set of housing characteristics to estimate the associated change in energy demand of homes. The IVE model was designed specifically to enable modellers to use existing databases of housing characteristics to determine the impact of ventilation policy change on a population scale. The IVE model estimates of energy change when applied to US homes with limited parameterisation are shown to be comparable to the estimates of a well-validated, complex residential energy model.
