Abstract

The existing building stock in Hungary accounts for over 40% of total energy consumption of which heating and air-conditioning systems use represents the most. International and national regulations encourage cutting down the energy consumption in buildings. For this reason it is important to determine energy consumption exactly. In view of outdoor air parameters (temperature, humidity and enthalpy) variation a new calculation method was necessary to set up for evaluating of energy consumption of air handling units. In consideration of the fact that outdoor air condition values can be regarded as a probability variable we have worked out a new evaluation method of energy consumption of air handling units based on probability theory. The research work was carried out by scientific methods.
