| Summary: | (VAV) system and of continuous commissioning (CC) work done accurate and practical building physical parameter and have different HVAC systems. With parameters thus appropriate for parameter identification and evaluates building mass levels in two different climatic locations. building then-thermal mass and geometry, and climatic calculated to present some insights into the benefits of commercial building are available. The validation has been determination method, and the combined use of the EDE and MEI determined, two energy use indices, Energy Delivery different time periods and when utility bill data (i.e. Efficiency (EDE) and Multizone Efficiency Index (MEI), are energy, HVAC system operation, internal load schedule, estimates. A multistep identification scheme has been found has been performed in order to evaluate its accuracy and i.e., one likely to yield the most accurate set of parameter indices calculated from these parameters can provide insights into the HVAC system, and the potential for optimizing its it is suggested that the multistep regression approach is an location. This method is also evaluated using data from monthly data) only is available. The model is then applied of EDE and MEI are also discussed. Based on these findings, operation. performed using such data generated from a detailed building retrofit from a constant volume (CV) to a variable air volume several different inverse parameter identification schemes simulation program for different building geometries and stability with synthetic data against the effects of solar Such a synthetic evaluation will validate the model used as suitable for use when heating and cooling data from a the Texas LoanSTAR Program, which are in different locations This thesis proposes and validates a simplified model to energy use data from two buildings being monitored under to these two buildings, respectively. Uses and limitations to yield very accurate results, and a more careful evaluation well as determine the best parameter identification scheme, |
