Description

Compares optimal dynamic building control strategies with night setback control through experiments at a test facility representative of a room in a large office building. Supplies the results and discusses them. Compares the thermal comfort that would be experienced by the occupants for both types of control. Goes on to validate the simulation method employed through experimentation so that further studies could be conducted with confidence.

KEYWORDS: Controls, offices, thermal comfort, research, experiment, comparing, night setback, energy conservation, computer programs, validating energy storage, calculating
