Fundamental Evaluation of the Performance Field Experiment and Model Experiment of Air-Conditioning System With Floor Thermal Storage

We examined the impact of airconditioning loads (hereinafter referred to as AC loads) on the interior structural parts and the AC-usage patterns of super-high-rise residences. We considered different building orientations, structures, and insulation methods. We used the dynamic simulation software THERB (simulation of the thermal environment of residential buildings). It can estimate the temperature, humidity, sensible temperature, and heating/cooling load for multiple buildings. Super-high-rise residences have more structural components such as pillars and beams than do ordinary apartment buildings. The skeleton is generally made of concrete and steel, which have high thermal-storage capacities. The thermal-storage capacity of super-high-rise residences is considered to have a larger impact on the AC load and thermal comfort than that of ordinary residences. We show that the AC load of super-high-rise units would be reduced by installing insulation on the surfaces of interior walls that are not usually insulated in Japan.

In this study, we first developed a model using the measured values of the building thermal mass storage system installed in an office building in Tokyo. By comparing the calculated result of this model with the results from the convection air conditioning system model, the differences in the thermal environment of the room and energy consumption were verified. If the water transfer factor at the time of thermal storage is not extremely low, the energy consumption of the building thermal mass storage system is lower than that of the convection system.

The Combined Convection-Radiation air conditioning system using building structure is a system that combines the strengths of the TABS and convection systems. The purpose of this study was to investigate the specification of this system and determine its thermal performance. For the experiment, two concrete test specimens were prepared assuming this system and general TABS. The placement method for the pipes and the airflow conditions around the test specimens were varied, and a comparison of the changes in the thermal performance. This paper indicates the strengths and weaknesses of this system compared with general TABS.
