Studying the impact of an energy retrofit of a UAE-based existing building by adding intelligent valves on the main chilled water risers and reconfigure the chilled water pumps to...
Published 2021“…With that being said, this research aims to provide reliable information and outputs on the best practice of operating chilled water network for a UAE-based building by converting the constant primary network to a variable one in addition to solve permanently the building ΔT issues by replacing the conventional pressure dependent control valves and adding intelligent valves on the main risers and the main airside equipment for this selected building, aiming to be quite practical as could as possible and have the outcome of combining both measures together, accordingly, the results show a potential energy saving on the range of 14-21% on the conservative side by applying the suggested retrofit measures, which leads to approximately an energy cost of savings of at least half a million to seven hundred thousands of UAE dirhams along with simple payback of 3-4 years which is considered an attractive SPB period for investors on such fields. …”
