研究目的
To investigate the effect of changing relative humidity with dry bulb temperature on the cooling load, power consumption and chiller selection in healthcare facilities and to propose a solar photovoltaic system to reduce the energy cost for chiller operation.
研究成果
The study concludes that applying green building criteria can significantly reduce cooling load and power consumption in healthcare facilities. A solar PV system is a feasible option to reduce the cooling cost, with system sizing depending on load data, solar radiation, and investment cost.
研究不足
The study is limited to a specific case study (Farah hospital) and may not be generalizable to all healthcare facilities. The performance of the PV system depends on local solar radiation and load data.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study used radiant time series (RTS) method for cooling load calculation and HOMER software for modeling the solar photovoltaic system.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A case study of Farah hospital in Amman, Jordan was selected.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The study considered three types of buildings (commercial, hospital, and green hospital) and different types of solar cells.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The study analyzed the cooling load and power consumption under different indoor design conditions and modeled the PV system's performance.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The results were analyzed to determine the reduction in cooling load and power consumption and the feasibility of the PV system.
