Computer Aided Design and Testing of Cooling System for A Commercial Complex

摘要

The present study shows the design of the cooling system for a commercial complex. There are some problems in designing the components, with suitable capacities for a commercial complex. For such problems, dual policy does not make sense and in many cases the problem may be tackled in a simpler way to get comparable accuracy. It deals with the development and authentication of computer software for estimating building cooling load. The software is simpler to use, needs fewer input data and is more versatile compared to any other commercially available, exorbitantly costly and extensively used software. The effects of significant building parameters like orientation, window glass shade type, number of glass planes used, wall insulation, roof type and floor type can be easily investigated. Effects of all these parameters have been investigated for a typical building block to arrive at an intelligent decision. With any other software or method, it cannot be made so conveniently. All the above mentioned advantages are without sacrificing accuracy and reliability.
