本文介绍了作为项目一部分安装的暖通空调系统的设计、运行和性能，以证明商业建筑的能效和环境责任。安装在2180 m2办公楼中的系统提供了优越的空气质量和热舒适性，而主要由于循环加热和冷却系统，只需要传统系统一半的电能。由于锅炉/吸收式制冷机的运行时间较长且性能较差，该建筑的用气量高于预期。单位:双引证:研讨会，ASHRAE交易，1998年，第104卷，第2部分，多伦多

This paper describes the design, operation, and performance of an HVAC system installed as part of a project to demonstrate energy efficiency and environmental responsibility in commercial buildings. The systems installed in the 2180 m2office building provide superior air quality and thermal comfort while requiring only half the electrical energy of conventional systems primarily because of the hydronic heating and cooling system. Gas use for the building is higher than expected because of longer operating hours and poor performance of the boiler /absorption chiller.Units: Dual
