Analysis of climate zones’ effects on energy consumption of a bedroom TAC system
To promote the application of bedroom TAC to a larger region, task/ambient air conditioning (TAC) system was applied to different climate zones in China. In this study, China as a typical country which has a very large area and significantly different climate zones, was selected as the investigated country. Firstly, five cities in different climate zones were selected. Secondly, the CFD study was carried out on the bedroom TAC using the environmental parameters. Thirdly, predictive models of energy consumption were established using RSM method. Afterwards, the energy performance of the TAC system in different cities were predicted and analyzed. The results showed that the energy consumption in the typical day was from 0 kJ in Kunming to 4588.30 kJ in Shanghai.
