| Abstract |
In life cycle cost (LCC), the cost during the operation period is 5 ? 6 times higher than the initial investment. The energy consumption of architectural environment system accounts for the most proportion in LCC and can be efficiently reduced mostly realized through Energy Management System(EMS). The purpose of this study is to develop EMS and to verify the proposed model by applying energy management technique in a real campus building. In this study, the influence of the building control(blind and dimming) and system control(HVAC) strategies in energy consumption and the energy saving potentials of the whole building energy have been investigated by means of simulations. Furthermore, it is programed to show information of control strategies to achieve EMS. EnergyPlus runtime language(Erl) is used to specify control algorithms and complete energy management. With building control and system control, whole building energy consumption of the target building is reduced by about 46.0%. |
