20.500.12556/RUL-101291 Analysis and optimization of thermal comfort in residential buildings by means of a weather-controlled air-to-water heat pump In the described research an investigation was performed into how thermal comfort in residential buildings could be improved by means of the smart control and optimization of weather-controlled air-to-water heat pumps, taking into account the new-generation heat pumps which can be adapted to different environmental conditions. A novel approach to the off-line optimization of weather-dependent heating curves is proposed. Outdoor temperature controlled heating is extended into the field of linearly parametrized generalized heating curves, considering additional influencing factors such as solar radiation, temperature gradients, and other near-future effects. Off-line optimization is performed in order to maximize indoor thermal comfort for each different parametrization case. The study is based on a TRNSYS simulation of a residential building which included a heat pump model, and a predicted mean vote (PMV) thermal comfort model. A simulation framework for the global optimization of generalized heating curves is developed. The results of the study showed that a considerable improvement in thermal comfort can be achieved by including (in addition to the outdoor temperature) some other factors which can affect the operation of the heat pump, solar radiation being the factor with the strongest effect. heat pump optimization simulation thermal comfort weather compensation temperature solar radiation toplotna črpalka optimizacija simulacija termično ugodje vremenska kompenzacija temperatura sončno sevanje true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2018-05-22 11:08:52 2018-05-22 11:08:55 2025-03-06 10:05:47 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2018 0 0 Str. 1-23 2018 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 621.577(045) 0360-1323 10.1016/j.buildenv.2018.05.044 16069915 4318474 RAZ_Potocnik_Primoz_i2018.pdf RAZ_Potocnik_Primoz_i2018.pdf 1 E78D00A1144E6797D2AAD9D75752105A edb605f70e7b4c1f4de6b5365656c94649ef85647588449f989f45cfc88ad01a 36d11974-a1b5-11eb-a523-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=111238 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S036013231830310X 0 41b8c81f-fa69-11ef-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=200386 Fakulteta za strojništvo 0 0 0
