Gas-cooling markets in the commercial sector

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7013810
A technical/economic assessment of commercial gas-cooling systems relative to electric equipment was performed. The evaluation included assembling data on building cooling loads (building description and weather), utility rates, equipment performance (full and part load), equipment costs, and customer decision criteria; calculating operating cost savings; and developing an analysis program that integrates the factors influencing the competitive advantages of various cooling systems. Trends in the gas-cooling market are discussed along with market and R D implications.
