25
Buildings – High Performance Envelope
The effectiveness of the thermal envelope depends on the air leakage Careful application of a continuous air barrier can reduces rates of air leakage by a factor of 5 to 10 compared to standard practice (enforcement of careful workmanship during construction) Buildings with very low air leakage require mechanical ventilation (95% of the available heat in the warm exhaust air can be transfered to the incoming cold air) to keep indoor air quality

Buildings: Mechanical Equipment
In evaluating the energy efficiency of Mechanical Equipment the overall efficiency from primary to useful energy should be taken into account This is particularly important in the case of using Mechanical Equipments that use electricity (produced from fossil fuels)
40
Buildings: Mechanical Equipment for heating
Furnaces heat air and distribute the heated air through the house using ducts; are electric, gas-fired (including propane or natural gas), or oil-fired. Efficiencies range from 60 to 92% (highest for condensing furnaces) Boilers heat water, and provide either hot water or steam for heating; heat is produced from the combustion of such fuels as natural gas, fuel oil, coal or pellets. Efficiencies range from 75% to 95% (highest for condensing boilers)

Buildings: HVAC Systems
Ventilate and heat or cool big buildings All air systems: air at a sufficient low (high) T and in sufficient volumes is circulated through the building to remove (add) heat loads CAV: constant air volumes VAV: variable air volumes Air that is circulated in the supply ducts may be taken entirely from the outside and exhausted to the outside by the return ducts or a portion of the return air may be mixed with fresh air Incoming air needs to be cooled and dehumidified in summer and heated and (sometimes) humidified in winter Restrict air flow to ventilation needs and use additional systems for additional heating/cooling Heat exchangers that transfer heat between outgoing and incoming air flows
