Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aims at developing a new energy conservation design method which serves the water distribution system of air conditioning equipment of buildings. The contents of this design method consist of two elemental technologies. One of them is the installation of integrative piping to reduce the pressure loss in piping. The other is installation of tandem pumps for low flow rates and low pump head operation. We developed the new design method after some simulation examinations about these new technologies. We showed the 55.1% or less as the pump energy reduction effect by the new design method. Moreover, the proposed design method can achieve much effect to use for the systems that have valve control or pressure control.
