Analysis of a Retrofitted Thermal Energy Storage Air-conditioning System of a Marine Museum

Thermal energy storage(TES) air-conditioning system is a electrical load management technology with great potential to shift load from peak to off-peak utility periods. TES is now in widespread use for electric rate structures and energy policies and becomes a great contribution to energy conservation. However, TES is more complicated than conventional air-conditioning system in design and control strategies. According to practical field operation, the control of dynamic characters is especially difficult, and so are storage capacity design , discharging rate and charging capacity selection.
This study set an example how to improve the energy performance of a retrofitted thermal energy storage air-conditioning system of a marine museum. Through full-scale experiment, historical air-conditioning operation data and computer simulation, the solution is provided on condition of unchanging major water pipe and equipment. This example can be a good demonstration for upping performance of TES. After testing and recording data for one year, this case indicates the investigation is effective and valuable to electric power management and green technology.
