Novel control strategies for solar-assisted systems. Annual progress report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6255429
Twelve space heating systems were evaluated comprising both conventional and off-peak systems. The conventional systems are resistance heating, air to air heat pump, and conventional solar heating with electric resistance backup. Different storage systems and control strategies were added to those systems, and the effect of these novel systems on utility peak load and total energy consumption was evaluated. Annual performance results for a solar cooling system are being compared with those for a conventional air conditioner. The remaining tasks consist of determining both utility and consumer capital and operating costs for all systems, and obtaining utility data from utilities other than the Philadelphia Electric Company.
