通过计算机模拟，与传统设计相比，介绍了开放式办公室中结合个人环境控制（PEC）的系统的能源使用特征。说明采用PEC的主要原因是通过改善热舒适性和空气质量条件来提高工人生产力。为了分析与PEC系统安装相关的经济性，有必要了解安装成本、运行和维护成本以及与提高工人生产率相关的成本节约。研究表明，与传统系统相比，PEC系统在建筑照明和HVAC电气使用方面的效果从7%的节约到15%的罚款不等。考虑到目前的能源和劳动力成本，与PEC相关的生产率年增长率只有0.08%左右，才能抵消最糟糕的情况- 案件罚款15%。各州的研究需要量化工人生产力和个人舒适度控制之间的关系。关键词:控制、办公室、开放式空间、建筑、生产力、舒适性引用:ASHRAE Trans。1992年，第98卷，第1部分，论文编号AN-92-8-2，903-909，8图，4页，参考文献。

Presents energy use characteristics of systems incorporating personal environmental control (PEC) in open plan offices compared with conventional designs, through the use of computer simulations. States the primary reason for incorporating PEC is to increase worker productivity through improved thermal comfort and air quality conditions. To analyse the economics associated with the installation of a PEC system, it is necessary to know the installation costs, the operating and maintenance costs and the cost savings associated with improved worker productivity. States the study shows that the effects of PEC systems range from 7% savings a 15% penalty in building lighting and HVAC electrical use compared with conventional systems. With current energy and labour costs, only about an 0.08% annual increase in productivity associated with PEC is necessary to offset a worst-case penalty of 15%. States research is required to quantify the relationship between worker productivity and individual comfort control.KEYWORDS: Controls, offices, open plan spaces, buildings, productivity, comfort
