Sensible Air to Air Heat Recovery Strategies in a Passive House

Rodriguez-Anderson, Santiago Martin 08 January 2015 (has links)
Due to rising energy costs and concerns about global climate change, high performance buildings are more in demand than ever before. With roughly 20% of the total energy consumption in the United States being devoted to residential use, this sector represents a significant opportunity for future savings. There are many guidelines and standards for reducing building energy consumption. One of the most stringent is the Passive House Standard. The standard requires that that air infiltration is less than or equal to 0.6 air changes per hour at a 50 Pascal pressure difference (ACH 50), annual heating energy is less than or equal to 15kWh/m2, and total annual source energy is less than or equal to 120 kWh/m2. For comparison, the typical West coast US residence has an ACH50 of 5 and annually uses more than 174 kWh/m2 of source energy according to the 2009 Residential Energy Consumption Survey. With these challenging requirements, successful implementation of the Passive House Standard requires effective strategies to substantially reduce energy consumption for all end uses. Heating and cooling loads are low by necessity in a Passive House. As such this makes end uses like water heating a much larger fraction of total energy use than they would be in a typical building. When air to water heat pumps are employed the energy consumption by water heating is lowered significantly. By employing innovative heat recovery strategies the energy consumption for water heating and HVAC can be reduced even further. This study uses energy modeling and project cost analysis to evaluate three innovative control strategies. Results for a Passive House in Portland Oregon show a savings of about $70 annually with a payback period of 10 years. The same Passive House in Fairbanks Alaska with a different strategy would save $150 annually with a payback period of 5 years.

Zdravotně technické a plynovodní instalace v průmyslové hale / Sanitation installation and gas installation in a factory unit

Maslík, Michal January 2014 (has links)
This thesis deals with health - technical and gas pipeline installations in the industrial hall. The building is situated in Frydek Mistek. The theoretical part compares the applicable technical rules for gas in Slovakia and the Czech Republic. The work also deals with the issue of determining the size of the reservoir water heater in several variants and compared to surveys by the use of hot water in similar objects. The design part is then developed addressing health - technical and gas pipeline installation for the specified object of the industrial hall.

Návrh otopné soustavy s tepelným čerpadlem vzduch-voda v kombinaci s bivalentním zdrojem / Design of a space heating system with an air-water heat pump and bivalent heat source

Skočík, Lukáš January 2015 (has links)
The thesis is engaged in complete reconstruction of a heat system of a family house with higher heat loss, i.e. heat source, piping and radiators. As a heat source is chosen air-water heat pump. Heat system is designed with panel radiators with regard to minimum building interventions. A required power for hot water heating is calculated and selected a heat pump from suitable power range in combination with storage tank with hot water tank. The bivalent point is determined, as backup source are heating elements installed in storage tank. Drawings and circuit diagrams with safety elements are attached. In the end is calculation of estimated return.

Studie snížení energetické náročnosti bytového domu / Study of energy consumption reduction of block of flats

Svoboda, Lukáš January 2014 (has links)
The goal of the thesis is firstly to get all the information about the initial state of solved block of flats, which is located on the street Merhautova 76/954 in Brno – Černá pole, in terms of constructions, energy consumption and initial state of heating system. In the second part of the thesis, where are discussed the possibilities of reduction of energy consumption, variant drafts of reduction of energy consumption and their financial costs and the choice of optimal variant. Third part deals with assement of solved block of flats in terms of sustainable built environment by using tool to rate buildings in terms of sustainable built environment - SBToolCZ, evaluation of possibility to use renewables. In the end are written summaries and recommendations.
