Title: Occupancy analysis: design and operational energy studies in a new high-rise office building. Volume 3

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5373281

The objective of this analysis, is simply to: determine how energy consumption varies as a function of building occupancy and utilization. This analysis is primarily involved with the relationship between occupancy patterns and energy consumption. It also addresses the relationship between building functional use (e.g., office, computer, parking, and food service) and energy consumption. This study investigates variations in use and energy consumption during (1) the period of building startup from pre-occupancy through initial occupancy to full occupancy, and (2) daily and night occupancy for weekdays, weekends, holidays, and vacation periods. The report includes an investigation of the relationship between specific functional uses, systems requirements for those functions, and energy consumption.
